Question: Whey protein?
Question Description:
What is it really intended for? And if taken, does it add any weight? Like if you are trying to lose weight and also weight lifting, would it be a bad idea to take it?

Answer#1: Whey protein is intended to be a very fast absorbing source of protein in order to increase muscle mass. The primary use is to take it right after your weight lifting session.If you are trying to burn fat at the same time, I think I would do your weight lifting first thing in the morning, followed by a serving of whey protein as soon as you do your last set, followed by a 2nd serving 1/2 hour later, followed by a meat and vegetable meal 1.5 hours later, followed by another meat and vegetable meal 3 hours after that. And eat a bit of protein every 3 hours. Late in the day go for a run for at least 18 minutes and don't anything high in carbs before bedtime.Gaining muscle and losing fat at the same time can be tricky and you have to balance the carb and total calories carefully.
