Assuming that you are doing an intense, whole-body strength training session twice a week, it is a good idea to increase your intake of proteins above normal. You should also be eating a protein-rich meal every three or four waking hours. This means at least five meals of at least 15 grams of proteins each time for adult females and at least 20 grams of proteins each time for adult males. Your weight is also a factor, with many sources citing about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. It is best to get your protein from natural sources such as (unless you are vegetarian) grass-fed organic beef or sockeye (wild) salmon, but protein shakes with whey protein are fine.
In order not to get fat eating so frequently, decrease your daily carbohydrate intake. Avoid all processed (refined) carbohydrates (see the list further down this page) and keep your total carbohydrate intake below 80 grams. This will switch your body from burning sugar (all carbohydrates when digested become sugar) to burning fat, which will improve your appearance, how you feel, and make you healthier.
