This is not a bad video but the title/premise is incorrect and not proven by the actual content. Essentially you are saying that people with bad diets cannot rely solely on protein shakes to make up for that deficiency. It’s not the protein shakes that are the problem though; it’s not investing a small amount of time into educating themselves around nutrition.
Hey! I appreciate the feedback, it's important for me to hear what you think of things like title/thumbnail as it's a difficult area! Clickbait vs true information, and I try my best to stay on the side of factual and not clickbait. Although perhaps it's a stretch I'm hoping I still answered the question of why triathletes shouldn't be using protein shakes - which is if they don't first spend time understanding their diet! Will keep this in mind for future videos. Thanks again 🙂
Latest research suggests up to 2-3g of protein per kg of bodyweight. For me on that is 140-210g a day in 30g's per feed. I only eat real food, no rubbish so I need at least 2 protein shakes a day before and after workouts. You cannot eat a steak before and after workouts.
@@Nacho-y5sIdk if you got an answer but my coach told me in layman's terms that they won't hurt to do but they are an expensive alternative to eating a good diet and taking an over the counter magnesium supplement. I tried both the power and supplements and noticed no difference. Also found taking a daily tumeric supplement helped me feel more recovered faster.

Where are you getting this information from?! I'd love to read it, because current endurance athletes guidance is 1.4-2.2g of protein/kg/bw daily

I also did some of my own research and found similar studies applicable to athletes

What about BCAAs powder?
Before I give an answer my question would be: why BCAAs? What are you hoping for by using them?
