[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are you sleeping and how are your stress levels? Chronically elevated cortisol from insomnia and stress will prevent your body from building muscle no matter what you eat or how much you lift. If you are a female, other hormonal changes at this time of life could also be a factor/obstacle. [/quote] https://www.verywellfit.com/build-muscle-by-manipulating-hormones-3498515 And no, you don’t need red meat to build muscle that is outdated nonsense that men in particular seem to obsess on. There are world class athletes and bodybuilders who are vegan for pity’s sake. You need to understand your body at a nutritional science/biochemistry level to hack muscle growth. Protein is required, but it’s carbohydrates that fuel exercise and feed muscles. https://www.eatingwell.com/article/8024634/carbs-to-build-muscle/#:~:text=Though%20protein%20is%20essential%20for,strength%2Dtraining%20performance%20and%20recovery.[/quote]
