 Recent
research shows that it’s best to consume whey protein
two hours before exercising - after exercising, within
two hours or less. This is the time when the body needs
protein the most. More recent studies have reduced this
time to as little as 15 minutes. Whey Protein digests
easily to start nourishing muscle tissue in need of
repair. It has a high concentration of branched chain
amino acids (BCAAs) which are used by muscle fibers
during exercise. The body prefers to use BCAAs during
periods of exercise as a source of energy.
Low levels of BCAAs may lead to increased fatigue,
especially during endurance exercise.

Overcoming Frustrations
 Frustration
can have highly damaging impact on our frame of mind. It
can turn a positive person into a negative person. It
can inhibit our progress and, in the most extreme cases
can completely immobilize us. We can become so wound up
with our frustration that we can't think or act
rationally, or we can even become aggressive.
There are countless causes of frustration, and what
affects one person may have no impact on someone else.
There are no simple answers or remedies. Some people
simply give up on what they were trying to achieve. Some
people walk away from the cause and go onto something
else, and find they can then face the problem rationally
when they come back to it.
Stepping back from the cause of the frustration and
making yourself calm down will help us to see things
more clearly. Learn strategies and techniques to deal
with the frustrations. Learn techniques to overcome your
problems and be more productive, which will contribute
to your success.
