Protein is an important component of all athletes, but in particular those wishing to maintain or increase their muscle mass. It is usually not necessary to go out and buy protein supplements. These easy to make protein shake recipes can be used to increase your dietary protein. These provide a natural, simple and cheaper alternative to other protein supplementation.
Each shake also has a listing of the nutrition breakdown per serve.
With each of these recipes, you can replace the milk powder with 2-3 egg whites - this will reduce carbohydrates by 30g and reduce protein by 10g!! However, it may not taste as good!
