What to expect
Week by week.
What consistent daily use looks like.
Day 1
One scoop, 8 oz
Stir or shake into water, milk or juice. Milk adds its own protein and calories.
Daily
Spread protein out
Research supports 20 to 40 g of protein every 3 to 4 hours across the day, so a scoop can fill a gap between meals.
Weeks
Train and repeat
Studies that found added gains in strength and size paired protein with weeks of consistent resistance training.

The research
What the studies found.
How much protein, and how often
The International Society of Sports Nutrition reviewed the research on protein and exercise. It concludes that a daily intake of 1.4 to 2.0 g of protein per kg of body weight is sufficient for most exercising people to build and maintain muscle, with doses of about 0.25 g/kg, or 20 to 40 g, spread every 3 to 4 hours. Rapidly digested proteins high in essential amino acids and leucine, such as whey, are the most effective at stimulating muscle protein synthesis.†
Protein and resistance training
A meta-analysis of 49 randomized controlled trials with 1,863 participants found that protein supplementation during prolonged resistance training increased gains in muscle strength and size in healthy adults. Beyond a total protein intake of about 1.6 g per kg of body weight a day, extra protein produced no further gains in lean mass.†
