Hello, if you are looking at a toned and fit body with good muscle mass, protein is the key. Its very important that you eat protein through different dietary sources such as milk, curd, paneer, nuts, pulses, sprouts, egg whites, chicken, fish etc. Also, eating protein post workout can definitely have a significant impact. Protein bars usually contain additives, preservatives etc and not recommended for regular intake. Preferably go natural!!!
Next Steps
Include one type of protein source post work out every day.
Health Tips
When on high protein, always drink a lot of water to flush out toxins.
