SELLEST OSAST
How much protein do you really need every day, especially if you practice intermittent fasting, OMAD, or eat only two meals a day? Kevin Rail tackles one of the biggest conversations in fitness and explains why he believes many people are putting far too much pressure on themselves to hit massive daily protein targets.
In Episode 2 of Fasting For Fitness Unfiltered, Kevin shares his personal approach to protein intake, fasting, strength training, meal timing, muscle maintenance, and recovery.
He gets into:
- The obsession with hitting 200 grams of protein
- Protein intake during OMAD and two-meal-a-day eating
- Why Kevin doesn't count his protein or macros
- Strength training and maintaining muscle
- Fasting and workout nutrition
- Eating protein before bed
- What Kevin looks for in protein powders
- How to read supplement ingredient labels
- Artificial colors, flavors, and sweeteners
- Examples of cleaner protein powders, bars, and snacks
Kevin also walks through several products and explains why he pays more attention to the ingredient list than the marketing claims on the front of the package.
The bigger message is simple: get quality nutrition, keep strength training, and stop allowing protein numbers to make fitness more complicated than it needs to be.
If you've wondered how much protein you need while fasting, whether OMAD can work with strength training, or what to look for in a protein powder, this episode gives you Kevin's unfiltered perspective.
