Is whey protein safe? How much protein is actually effective and how much is too much? In this episode of Sweat Success, Dr. Jose Antonio, PhD, founder of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN), sits down with host Michael Benso to break down the science behind protein intake, whey protein side effects, supplement myths, and the future of sports nutrition. We explore what the research actually says about whey protein and whether it’s the best option for muscle growth and recovery. Dr. Antonio shares his insight on how many grams of protein per kilo of body weight you should be consuming and revealing why serious athletes and even everyday lifters should consider going far beyond that number. For anyone wondering about whey protein shakes, this episode answers the question: is whey protein good for you, or are you just flushing expensive supplements down the drain? Dr. Antonio also dives into the science of hyperplasia, the process of growing new muscle fibers (not just enlarging existing ones), and why it may be more possible in humans than many think. This conversation is loaded with value for gym owners, fitness professionals, and anyone serious about performance. It’s science-backed, no-BS, and packed with insights that can elevate how you train, eat, and grow. 🎙️ Details for the Anual ISSN conference: https://www.sportsnutritionsociety.org/ConferencesDetails.php?IDconf=139 [https://www.sportsnutritionsociety.org/ConferencesDetails.php?IDconf=139] ⚠️ Are you a gym owner or personal trainer? download our free guide to personal training and discover how to increase your gym revenue 200% (based on proven strategies): https://links.buzops.com/widget/form/6aohiSCtJ8nKJcaJpeO3 [https://links.buzops.com/widget/form/6aohiSCtJ8nKJcaJpeO3] 📲 follow us in socials to get all the fitness industry updates, information and interesting tips for gym growth: https://www.instagram.com/buzops/ [https://www.instagram.com/buzops/] https://www.facebook.com/buzops [https://www.facebook.com/buzops] DR.
