Protein is known as the building block of muscle, but it's actually a lot more than that. Our skin, hair, nails, immune system and digestive system all rely on it, to name a few. However, the human
body isn't great at storing it, so regular consumption via the diet is essential. That's why it's best to stock up and have a readily available supply.

Protein FAQS
Protein supplements are designed to be taken in addition to the food in your diet to support your daily protein intake. They come in many forms including protein shakes, bars and capsules. You might want to consider a protein supplement to meet your training needs, or if your dietary protein intake is too low.
Protein is an essential macronutrient that helps to build muscle, repair tissue, make enzymes and hormones and much more. An expertly formulated protein powder will make sure you’re getting the right amount of protein to support your goals. If you’re training hard, protein powder can help build and maintain your muscle mass, as well as having a heap of other health benefits.
Here at bulk™, we aim to change the nutrition game with world-class products including all types of protein supplements - think protein powders, shakes, snack bars and much more. Our protein range is so broad you can find a suitable supplement for all dietary requirements. We’ve got your back with gluten-free, vegan and paleo varieties.
Protein is famous for its role as the main building block for muscles. However, its functions don’t end there. All cells and tissue contain protein, including our hair, nails, skin and bones. To put it simply, protein is responsible for holding our bodies together and without it we’d fall apart - quite literally. Plus, it’s an incredible source of energy and we wouldn’t survive without it.
It depends on two key factors: your workout habits (think intensity, frequency, etc.) and your body weight. According to the British Nutrition Foundation, adults leading a basic healthy lifestyle should consume an average of 0.6g of protein per kilogram body weight per day. That value can shift depending on the intensity of your workouts.
There isn’t a specific set amount. Your muscle-building results will heavily depend on your physical activity and its intensity. As a rule, make sure you’re getting around 0.6g of protein per kilogram of body weight per day at the minimum. Protein powders are a great way to increase your protein intake further and to support your muscle growth and recovery.
To get the most out of your anabolic window, you should consume your protein of choice in the 30 mins of your post-workout.
It’s easy to get your dosages mixed up. We recommend you consume 1-3 protein shakes per day. What will allow you to accurately choose how often you should have a protein shake are your training frequency and intensity. Your body needs replenishment after physical effort, so keep that in mind.
Our protein powders come in a huge variety of flavours to suit your preferences. Some protein powders might taste a bit different depending on their source - for example, whey protein powder might have a slightly different taste to a vegan protein powder. Rest assured we’ve formulated all of our products to taste great, whatever your preference.
