How Much Protien do you need ?

“And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the forces of Hades will not overpower it.”—Matthew 16:18
Jesus knows how to build His church. He also knows how to build your body. In fact, He even designed the food we eat to perform very specific functions in our bodies to promote health, healing, energy and growth. Athletes today know that what they eat has a direct effect on how they train and how they ultimately perform during competition. But there still seems to be a lot of confusion when it comes to the amount of protein needed for peak performance.
The primary function of protein is to build and repair body tissues including muscles, ligaments and tendons. It also plays an important role in synthesizing hormones, boosting your immune system and replacing red blood cells. Thus, getting the right amount of protein is important for every athlete. Athletes generally fall into two categories:
Chart A
Grams of Protein / Lb. of Body Weight
RDA for Sedentary Adult
0.4
Adult Exerciser
0.5 – 0.7
Adult Endurance Athlete
0.6 – 0.7
Growing Teenage Athlete
0.7 – 0.9
Athlete Building Muscle Mass
0.7 – 0.8
Athlete Restricting Calories
0.8 – 0.9
1. Athletes who eat too much protein. This includes those who wrestle and who play football, baseball, lacrosse and hockey. With athletes in these sports appearing more and more muscular, an increasing number of athletes are turning to large amounts of protein and protein supplements in order to gain an advantage.
2. Athletes who don’t eat enough protein. This includes those who play soccer or tennis, or those who run, swim or compete in triathlons. These athletes tend to load up on carbohydrates to meet their ene
rgy needs, but are deficient in protein, iron, zinc, calcium and other nutrients.
Both types of athletes will fail to perform at their peak. Too much protein can hurt the on-the- field performance of athletes, and here’s why…
High-protein diets that are low in carbohydrates don’t provide enough fuel for their muscles. They will lack the energy they need from carbohydrates in order to train with the intensity to help the muscles grow, and also to sustain energy throughout competition. This can be why some athletes “run out of gas” late in the game.

Too little protein can make them susceptible to colds, illnesses and injuries. For these athletes, recovering from intense training or competition takes longer, and they struggle to overcome nagging injuries.
Protein intake should be between 15–30% of a person’s total daily caloric consumption. Chart A offers some guidelines for determining personal protein intake.
Using this chart, a growing teenage athlete who weighs 170 lbs. should consume between 119–153 grams of protein each day.
170 lbs. x 0.7 = 119 g/day170 lbs. x 0.9 = 153 g/day
Chart B can also help by showing the estimated amount of protein in some common foods. This month, try to keep your protein intake within the specified guidelines. It just might help you perform at your peak!

IRON SHARPENS IRON.




“As iron sharpens iron, one man sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17

In order to reach your highest potential on the athletic field, you must take your conditioning to the next level. In every sport and at every position, you must be prepared for the demands of intense competition – mentally, spiritually, and physically.

Developing your speed, explosiveness, and agility is part of what makes a champion. But you also must be prepared with mental toughness that helps you persevere under great pressure. And you must have the heart to compete in a way that honors God.

At FCA, we will draw on the expertise of some of the world's best strength & conditioning coaches that have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ! And we strive to combine the most up-to-date training programs for the body, mind, and soul – making you a champion on the field and more importantly, in the game of life.
