As someone who mentally calculates the protein content of every food like a game of The Price Is Right, I am usually on point when it comes to guessing the calories and protein values of a meal before deciding if it’s worth adding to my day, especially during a diet phase.
So in that sense, I like to think of myself as an expert when it comes to macro tracking as my guesses are usually spot on — with the star prize of extra muscle mass in place of a fancy new washing machine or family car. However, when travelling —especially as the weather warms up— it’s not always practical or socially acceptable to carry packs of pre-cooked chicken with me. That’s where protein shakes come to the rescue.
