The 5 Protein Mistakes EVERY Woman Over 40 Is Making | Ep. 404
In this episode of The WarriorBabe Show, Nikkiey breaks down the 5 most common protein mistakes she sees women over 40 making every single day - and why fixing them is the difference between protein that actually builds muscle and protein that’s just a number on a tracking app. She covers why most women are eating roughly half the protein their body actually needs after 40 (and why what felt like “enough” 10 years ago no longer cuts it thanks to anabolic resistance), why dumping all your protein into dinner is only triggering muscle protein synthesis once a day instead of four, the difference between complete and incomplete protein sources and why your tracking app doesn’t know the difference, the one amino acid - leucine - that almost nobody is talking about but is the key that starts the entire muscle-building engine, and why cutting protein on rest days, after surgery, or during recovery is removing the raw material at the exact moment your body needs it most.
