Protein, Recovery, and Daily Energy: Building a Better Routine

Why Protein Matters for Recovery

Protein supports muscle repair after activity, which is part of why consistent, insufficient recovery can leave you feeling worn down over time, even if you're getting enough sleep. A steady protein intake helps your body bounce back instead of accumulating fatigue.

A Simple Recovery Routine

• 1
  After activity

  A protein shake or meal within a couple hours of exercise supports muscle repair.

• 2
  Throughout the day

  Spreading protein across meals supports steadier energy than one large dose.

• 3
  Before bed

  Good sleep is part of recovery too. Pair protein with a wind-down routine for best results.
