I'm getting back into the gym and starting a new program called "Starting Strength". I've done it in the past and gained really good results. Anyways my question is is it okay to take whey protein when I'm trying to lose weight but also gain muscle? I have I guess what you would call a skinny/fat body (damn that sounds bad!).
Sorry probably a ignorant question, but just wondering if I take whey will it take longer to lose fat...

Using a whey protein supplement around training times is perfectly fine and can be beneficial.Originally Posted by GCSurfer

Yep, protein is excellent post workout. You can use it as an emergency meal replacement, but real food is better for that.
65% fat, 30% protein, 5% carbs = keto.

the 3 personal trainers I have spoken with (one a Pro bodybuilder) all recommended whey protein. not for massive mass but to repair the muscle and help in building lean muscle
