Skip Most Protein Bars
Avoid most protein bars; choose minimally processed animal-based bars like Epic when you need portability.
Use whey or egg white powder mixed into yogurt or water as an easy, higher-quality protein shortcut.
insights INSIGHT
Spread Protein Throughout The Day
You cannot realistically eat all your daily protein in one meal without discomfort.
Distribute protein across meals to hit 0.6–1.0 g per pound of lean mass more comfortably.
volunteer_activism ADVICE
Prefer Whey Standard Or Concentrate
Choose whey protein (standard or concentrate) over pea/hemp and isolates for better amino acid retention and value.
Buy unflavored/plain powder and mix into full-fat yogurt or water to make a simple protein-rich meal.

(11:45) Sarah's question is what is the 'lazy' way to get more protein into each day. (14:00) It's better to eat protein at each of the three meals each day rather than cram it into one or two. Stay away from hemp and pea proteins. The best protein is whey protein. (20:00) There are three types of whey: standard, concentrate, and isolates. Vinnie recommends either the standard or the concentrate; isolates are bastardized because they are more highly processed. Casein protein also has a good amino acid profile. (26:00) What is the difference between bovine protein, collagen, marine collagen, etc.? (30:00) Plant-based proteins are not effective. (38:00) Colostrum is the first milk a mother provides naturally. (41:00) Please be aware of claims that say colostrum for adults has benefits. Vinnie hates diet culture and the push to record macros all day, every day. (50:00 How do you calculate how much protein you need? (59:00) Getting between .6g and 1g per pound of lean body mass should be enough. Be careful around the gym bros — they don't always give good advice. They finish with a talk about their favorite music and concerts.
