7 Foods Every Man Over 40 Must Eat for Muscle Growth
As we age, maintaining and building muscle can become more difficult.
But whether it’s due to a decline in testosterone levels or anabolic resistance, there are a few simple adjustments we can make to ensure we’re gaining muscle maximally.
These adjustments, however, have nothing to do with how hard you’re training in the gym.
While we already know that younger men only need around 20g of protein per meal to maximize muscle protein synthesis, us older men need about double that amount.
That said, when it comes to optimal health and longevity, not all protein is created equal.
That’s why in this video, I want to share 7 foods every man over 40 must eat for muscle growth.
Not only will these foods help ensure you’re reaching your protein goals, but they’re provide additional benefits that’ll aid in your muscle building journey.
