The GetPRO range can be consumed at any time during the day throughout the day as a healthy snack*. We would particularly recommend to consume it after exercise workouts to help with the maintenance and growth of muscle growth and recovery mass.

* GetPRO contains protein which contributes to the maintenance and growth of muscle mass. Enjoy as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.

Protein is a macronutrient and an important source of energy. It is a core component of our muscles and bones, and we need it for several important functions within our body. Consuming enough protein after exercise is essential for supporting muscle growth and repair. When combined with appropriate strength-training alongside a healthy balanced diet, dietary protein contributes to the maintenance and growth of muscle mass.

Both whey and casein are proteins derived from milk. Whey protein is a popular choice post-exercise because the body can absorb it quickly, whereas casein is more slowly absorbed so can support longer term recovery. Both whey and casein provide a source of “complete” protein because they contain all 9 essential amino acids that your body needs.

The amount of protein you need will look different for everyone depending on factors such as your age, body weight and fitness goals. The recommended intake of protein for adults in the UK is 0.75 g per kg bodyweight per day. For athletes or those who regularly exercise, this can increase to 1.2-2. grams/kg bodyweight depending on the type of activity. We recommend you speak to a healthcare professional for tailored dietary advice.

Protein is a macronutrient and an important source of energy. It is a core component of our muscles and bones, and we need it for several important functions within our body such as immunity and muscle contraction. Consuming enough protein after exercise is essential for supporting muscle growth and repair. When combined with appropriate strength-training alongside a healthy balanced diet, dietary protein contributes to the maintenance and growth of muscle mass and can lead to increases in muscle size and strength.

GetPRO offers a range of products containing both whey and casein protein to support the maintenance and growth of muscle mass.

When it comes to protein timing, there are no hard and fast rules. We recommend consuming GetPRO after exercise to help with maintenance and growth of muscle mass. However, research shows that consuming protein in the 24hrs after your session will support maintenance and growth of muscle mass – so don’t worry if it’s not directly after. Luckily, GetPRO offer a range of tasty and convenient high protein products for any time of the day.

There is no need for protein before exercise. Eat something so you don't feel hungry, but not too much so you don't feel heavy. We suggest you wait at least an hour after your last meal before you start your training session.
