“Q: Can you get buff without adding extra protein to your diet? What are the pros and cons of protein shakes?
A: Although many women avoid lifting heavy weights because they are afraid they’ll get bigger, many men who want to build bulk know that it’s not easy to build muscle. The secret to getting buff boils down a simple recipe: Lift heavy weights two to three times a week, and eat more calories than normal. (Having shorter arms and legs and a genetic tendency to build muscle also helps.)”
More muscle doesn’t always require more protein.
