How protein bars support energy and muscle maintenance

Protein bars are a convenient and quick way to make sure you’re getting enough protein to maintain and build muscle mass. Here’s how…

The protein we eat provides essential amino acids that our bodies cannot produce on their own. These amino acids are crucial for creating new proteins inside our bodies that help with various functions, including muscle growth and repair and supporting energy production. In fact, protein is a major component of skeletal muscle, making it vital for maintaining and building muscle.1

So next time you grab a protein bar, remember you’re giving your body the tools it needs to stay strong and keep your body working at its optimum.

Supplements in the Impact Range: enhancing sports nutrition

Like I said, there’s more to nutrition than just protein...

Creatine Monohydrate Powder

Creatine is the most researched supplement there is. Taking 3g of it every day has been proven to boost physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise. In other words, creatine helps you take your training to the next level.

Supplements for performance: boosting endurance and strength

Supplements can enhance your endurance and strength, making them a great addition to your fitness regimen. Products such as whey protein have been shown to enhance muscle growth and research shows that casein can slow muscle breakdown, boosting muscle power for strength and endurance.2,3

  • Casein powder: Casein is absorbed slowly providing a steady flow of amino acids preventing muscle breakdown supporting strength building and endurance.2,4
  • Pre-workout: Pre-workout protein can help to improve endurance by providing essential amino acids that support sustained muscle function and reduce fatigue.5
  • Whey Protein Isolate: With a high protein content and fast absorption, this supplement enhances muscle mass contributing to strength goals.6

Quality: The Science Behind the Impact Range

We’re always banging on about quality, but it’s because we can back it up. We've worked hard to make sure our products are made to the highest possible standards, which is why they’re certified, verified and trusted. There are a few different ways we achieve this...

BRCGS Food Safety certificated

The Impact Range products are manufactured in a facility that is BRCGS certified. The facilities are kitted out with an advanced filtration system, and complete raw material traceability, meaning you know exactly what goes into your supplements.

Informed Choice tested

Products listed under the Informed Choice certification are regularly tested for banned substances. The globally recognised certification means that products are regularly tested to ensure they're free from contaminants and safe for use, giving you the peace of mind you need when choosing your supplements.

Informed Sport tested

Taking it to the next level, the Informed Sport certification demands that every batch of a product goes through a rigorous testing process, ensuring they’re free from banned substances. Informed Sport tested products meet the high standards required by elite athletes.

Tailored for all fitness levels: from beginners to pros

Protein is important for all fitness levels because of the crucial role it plays in our bodies from tissue repair and hormone production to immune health.

The amount of protein you need varies based on factors like age, activity level and overall health. Generally, adults should aim for 0.8-1.2g grams of protein per kg of body weight every day.7 Don’t forget active individuals or those looking to build muscle may have higher needs.

While a balanced diet is the best way to get the nutrients our bodies need, sometimes it's challenging to meet protein requirements through food alone. Whether you have a busy lifestyle or specific fitness goals, protein powders offer an efficient way to support your protein intake.

The role of protein powders in muscle building and recovery

Protein powders provide a source of high-quality protein and essential amino acids. Amino acids are the building blocks of muscle tissue and help stimulate growth and repair after tough workouts.

Taking protein powder before or after exercising ensures your muscles get the nutrients they need to recover quickly, reduce soreness and enhance performance. Whether you're an athlete or fitness enthusiast, adding protein powder to your diet can speed up muscle building and improve recovery times.

  • Strength training (H3): Consuming Whey Protein Isolate delivers nutrients to your muscles quickly supporting muscle growth.8
  • Hybrid training (H3): Hybrid athletes can benefit from protein powders like whey protein, which helps to build muscle and support sustained energy levels.3,9
  • Endurance training (H3): For endurance athletes, incorporating protein powders, such as slow-release casein, into their diet can help to enhance muscle recovery by reducing muscle breakdown during extended periods of exercise.3

Incorporating Impact Range into your daily routine

Protein powder: Start by adding a scoop of Whey protein powder to a pre or post-workout shake or water, for muscle recovery and growth. Keep a shaker bottle handy to fuel before or after your workout.

Pre-workout: Mix a scoop of protein powder with water, milk or milk alternative about 30 to 60 minutes before your workout. Or try blending the protein powder with a handful of oats and water around 1-2 hours pre-workout for an extra slow release of energy.

Casein protein: Casein digests slowly, providing a steady release of amino acids to maintain muscle protein synthesis after intense workouts. It's ideal for overnight muscle recovery, delivering nutrients while you sleep.

Snacks: Try fueling your workouts with protein bars pre- or post-exercise to boost energy and muscle growth. For workouts over 90 minutes, a mid-session snack can help maintain energy. Don’t forget, listen to your body and adjust snacks based on your needs.

Customising your nutrition plan with Impact Range

Tailoring your nutrition plan with a variety of protein supplements can help to meet your specific dietary needs and fitness goals.

Incorporate whey or casein protein, or supplements like creatine to optimise your intake for different activities. For example, whey protein is quickly absorbed, making it perfect for post-workout recovery.

Casein, with its slower release of amino acids, is ideal for nighttime use, promoting muscle recovery while you sleep, while creatine boosts energy for high-intensity activities.3,10

For those with dietary restrictions, plant-based proteins like soy and pea offer complete profiles that support muscle repair and growth. Customising your protein intake in this way can help you to achieve your specific fitness goals.

Maximising results: how to get the best from Impact Range products

Know Your Goals and Mix it up: Different supplements serve different purposes so why not alternate them depending on your goals?

Consider Dietary Restrictions: If you’re lactose intolerant, have gluten sensitives or a dairy allergy, opt for lactose-free, gluten-free or plant-based protein powders.

Maximise your Gains: Spreading protein intake throughout the day helps maintain muscle mass and supports steady energy levels.

Balance with Whole Foods: Protein powders should complement, not replace, whole food sources of protein.

Flavour and Texture: Taste and mixability matter, try sample sizes or read reviews to find a flavour and texture you enjoy.

Evaluate Your Lifestyle: If you’re always on the go, a protein powder that mixes easily with water or a protein bar might be more convenient than one that requires blending.

Consult a Professional: If you’re unsure which protein powder is best for you talk to a professional.

Where to buy: finding Impact Range products
