In this episode, I discuss the importance of consuming enough protein for muscle repair, growth, and overall recovery.
I provide a protein diet plan to help listeners easily consume 150 to 200 grams of protein per day with delicious and simple meal ideas. The plan includes meals such as a protein-packed omelet for breakfast, a whey protein shake for a mid-morning snack, grilled chicken breast with quinoa for lunch, Greek yogurt with berries and almonds for an afternoon snack, and a sirloin steak with roasted vegetables for dinner.
I also emphasize the importance of getting enough leucine, an amino acid critical for building muscle.

Mid-Morning Snack
Whey Protein Shake
● 1 scoop whey protein (25g protein)
● 1 cup coconut milk (1g protein)
● 1 banana (1g protein)
Total Protein: 27 grams
A mid-morning whey protein shake is quick, convenient, and effective for maintaining steady
protein intake throughout the day. Adding a banana not only enhances the taste but also
provides essential vitamins and minerals.
Lunch
Grilled Chicken Salad with Quinoa
● 6 oz grilled pasture raised (corn or soy free) chicken breast (40g protein)
● 1 cup quinoa (8g protein)
● Assorted veggies of your choice (2g protein)
Total Protein: 50 grams
For lunch, a grilled chicken salad with quinoa offers a balanced meal rich in protein, fibre, and
essential nutrients. Quinoa is not only a great plant-based protein source but also adds a
satisfying texture to your salad.
Afternoon Snack
Greek Yogurt with Berries and Almonds
● 1 cup Greek yogurt (20g protein)
● 1/4 cup mixed berries (0.5g protein)
● 1/4 cup almonds (6g protein)
Total Protein: 26.5 grams
A combination of Greek yogurt, berries, and almonds provides a nutritious and protein-packed
snack. The berries add a burst of antioxidants, while almonds contribute healthy fats and
additional protein.
Dinner
Steak with Roasted Vegetables
● 8 oz sirloin steak (52g protein)
● 1 cup broccoli (3g protein)
● 1 cup carrots (1g protein)
Total Protein: 56 grams
Dinner with steak and roasted vegetables offers a hearty and protein-rich meal. The sirloin steak
ensures a significant protein intake, while the broccoli and carrots contribute essential vitamins
and fiber.
Evening Snack (Optional)
Cottage Cheese with Fruit
● 1/2 cup cottage cheese (14g protein)
● 1/2 cup sliced peaches (0.5g protein)
Total Protein: 14.5 grams
If you need an extra boost before bed, cottage cheese with fruit is a great option. Cottage
cheese provides 80% a slow-digesting casein protein, helping to repair muscles overnight and
promotes feelings of satiety, while the fruit adds a touch of natural sweetness.
