Protein Hacks:

Post by robertjohn »

Struggling to get enough protein? Post your go-to sources—chicken, shakes, or sneaky adds. What’s your daily goal?

I aim for 220g daily. Breakfast is 6 eggs, oats with whey, and a turkey sausage.
Also mix beef liver into my chili—sounds gross, but it's packed. #noexcuses

Omg yes to sneaky adds! I mix collagen into my coffee, and blend silken tofu into smoothies.
150g/day is my sweet spot.

Right now I'm deep into cutting, so my macros are tight.
Whey isolate, Greek yogurt, and lean beef are staples. Also: egg whites + cinnamon = protein French toast 🔥

@Dario that French toast hack sounds 🔥
I keep it simple: 140g protein goal, mostly from salmon, tempeh, and protein oats. Add flax seeds and it's a fiber bomb too.

I’m lazy with prep, so I bulk cook grilled chicken and air fry it in batches.
Shake with frozen bananas + peanut butter + chocolate whey is my guilty post-lift treat 💪

Protein pasta has been a game-changer. Add lentil-based noodles with a lean meat sauce—easy 40g per plate.
I shoot for 130g/day.

Anyone else add egg whites to rice?
I scramble them into my brown rice with teriyaki sauce—tastes awesome and packs a punch.

I meal prep everything on Sunday: chicken thighs, quinoa, black beans.
Also drink 2 scoops of casein before bed. Helps recovery + boosts totals while I sleep 😴

Totally forgot to mention: canned tuna + avocado + sriracha = lunch in under 3 mins. 40g of protein, easy.
Macros don't lie.
