Physical Performance

With age, people tend to lose muscle. There are however ways to combat this loss, exercise being one, and especially weight training.

Maintaining a good diet is also essential, and protein is a key component of that. Protein supports muscle mass by providing amino acids which the body uses to make new proteins and new muscle. Consuming quality protein, spread across the day, is a proven way to help maintain muscle mass as we age, allowing people to keep active and mobile.

Gaining more muscle is an effective means to getting strong, and a major component of muscle strength is its size. The larger size is driven by increases in the protein components in the muscle that enable contraction. The more contractile tissue, the greater strength.

By consuming high-quality dairy protein after training, you can help stimulate muscle protein synthesis, actively producing new muscle tissue, that adds up over time to more muscle, greater strength and increased performance.
