Tip of the Day:
It takes protein to build muscle. Now that you're strength training, make sure to get plenty of protein to help your body create strong muscles. Follow the RDA guidelines; an easy rule of thumb is to try to eat an amount roughly the size of your hand three times per day. If you're a vegetarian, use protein powder supplements or lots of soy products. If you do eat meat, steer clear the red stuff. Stick to lean sources like chicken, turkey, and fish.
