As you probably know, rest days are an essential part of any workout routine because they allow your body the time it needs to rest and repair.
On rest days, you still need to eat plenty of carbs, fats and proteins to help your body recover. In fact, if you do not consume enough protein on rest days, you can actually hinder your muscle growth and athletic performance. To ensure you are consuming enough protein, we recommend drinking a protein shake even on your rest days.
Protein is essential to the process of recovery after a workout in which protein works to build and repair muscular tissue that has been broken down.
While whole-food protein sources (such as meat and dairy products) should make up the majority of your protein intake, a protein shake is another delicious, healthy, and convenient way to add additional protein sources into your diet. They are also especially convenient if you are someone who does not eat a lot of meat or is always on the go.
