Nutrition for Strength

Strength gains are built in training – but supported by nutrition. This guide focuses on muscle growth, strength output and consistency.

1. Protein Fundamentals

Protein provides the building blocks for muscle tissue.

• 1.6–2.2g protein per kg bodyweight
• Spread intake across the day
• Animal & plant sources both work

2. Carbs for Training Quality

Strength training still relies on carbohydrates.

• Improves training intensity
• Supports volume and performance

3. Fats and Hormones

Dietary fat supports hormone balance and overall health.

• Include healthy fats daily
• Do not eliminate fat completely

4. Meal Timing

Timing supports performance but consistency matters more.
