Protein is good, but not too much from meat: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27479196 > CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: > High animal protein intake was positively associated with cardiovascular mortality and high plant protein intake was inversely associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, especially among individuals with at least 1 lifestyle risk factor.

Thanks. Do you know of any naturally-high-in-protein plant-based source that isn't soy (i.e. tofu etc) or hemp? Asking cos I've had a hard time finding protein dense plant based alternatives, and as a vegetarian, it's really hard to get a lot of proteins from plant-based sources without processed stuff like Vega etc. I do eat quinoa but 1) it's very expensive and 2) you have to eat 2 or 3 cups of cooked quinoa to get…
Edit: by natural I mean without using scales, going just by how I'm feeling and body is doing.

Specifically, structure your starting workouts so they are simple and achievable, and if possible can help you in other areas of your life.
We get these type of fads every decade. Cholesterol was bad for you then fats were bad for you. Then it was running. Then hiking. It never ends. My grandparents lived well into their 90s. All you have to do is eat well and try to be active from time to time. But there is a growing weightlifting movement with a healthy marketing budget...
Many people who smoke have lived into their 90s. That's not a good reason to smoke. Anecdotes are not data.

To a lesser but still significant extent, legumes.
Research by McMaster University’s Dr. Stuart Phillips and others has found that if you eat more than 20 to 30 grams of protein at a time, you don’t get any further anabolic boost. Any extra protein is simply burned for energy; unlike carbohydrate or fat, you can’t save it for later.

Is weights better than HIIT for over 40?
What would be a natural way to find if you're taking enough protein? If my sleep patterns, digestion, stomach, bowel movement, muscular recovery are fine, am I taking enough protein in accordance with my workout regimen? Or could it be that I may be absolutely fine but still taking less protein than the one my workout requires and hence building up less? Edit: by natural I mean without using scales, going just by how…
