How To Build More Muscle With Less Protein

When it comes to building more lean muscle mass, there are three important requirements:

1. Intense overload through a heavy weight lifting workout program
2. Proper nutrition providing the raw materials your body needs to generate more lean muscle mass
3. Adequate rest in order for the process of build muscle tissue assimilation to take place

If you’ve been doing your research, you likely have a very good handle on all of these things.

It’s common knowledge that those who are hitting the weights hard need to be eating more protein. Almost any site you read online will tell you just that.
