[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is a good opportunity to start talking to your son about why he wants his body to look a certain way helping him distinguish between needing food/protein to have energy for a workout vs. to “bulk up” - he should be judging how much protein he needs by how he feels after a workout/normal day. Food/body issues in young men are overlooked![/quote] It's not about how he wants his body to look. He's not a bodybuilder. He wants to have muscle to get better at sports. He does not need an idiotic lecture on body positivity. You can't possibly judge protein intake by "how you feel at the end of the day". You can feel perfectly fine and still not be getting enough protein to build muscle as well as you could if you got more protein.[/quote]
