Arnold Schwarzenegger, Who Mixed Alcohol in His Protein, Unveils Mind-Boggling Fact About the Muscle-Building Nutrient

Ever since the deity of aesthetics, Arnold Schwarzenegger, entered the realm of bodybuilding, he has relentlessly worked towards making fitness a lifestyle choice. He exemplifies his hard work through various ventures, including the famous newsletter. He started his pursuit of educating the masses earlier this year, but in no time, his village has grown into a brethren of 431,000 like-minded individuals and is growing. Earlier, in his newsletter, Arnold’s Pump Club, the Austrian Oak highlighted a connection between protein and blood sugar levels.

The importance of protein has been underscored repeatedly by researchers. However, Arnie goes one step ahead to indicate the proportions required to positively affect insulin levels. The 222 edition of the ‘Arnold’s Pump Club’ newsletter is a treasure trove for fitness enthusiasts seeking to bulk up on protein. So let us get pumped up!

Protein shots prevent huge insulin spikes, according to Arnold Schwarzenegger

Like always, the Austrian Oak does not talk without scientific proof of fitness practice. He refers to a study published in Frontiers Academic Journal that underscores the relationship between protein intake and lower sugar levels. In the study, there were two groups: one had a protein drink before eating a bowl of “Cheerios,” while the control group had a placebo drink. The research produced shocking results. “The protein shot led to a 28 percent reduction in blood sugar levels,” informed the Terminator in his newsletter.

Furthermore, the 7x Mr. Olympia said that the scientific community has long ago accepted the positive impact on hormonal levels as well. Additionally, the macro food group helps slow down digestion. Also, what type of protein one is consuming does not matter. It can be a “plant or animal-based source (think anything from tofu or lentils to eggs or meat),” Arnie further added.

The most illuminating outcome of the research was that “the participants drank 15 grams of protein, which is less than one scoop of most powders — can get the job done.” It means that one does not have to consume large quantities of macros to reap its benefits. Even a small dose would suffice. Thus, the FUBAR actor suggests his fitness tribe fill up on protein and roughage. The Austrian Oak has often used his unique insight into nutrition. He would make a strange protein shake that went viral last year.

Schwarzenegger made his protein beverage

In a Zoom interview with Insider, Schwarzenegger revealed he liked mixing alcohol in his protein drink. The Austrian Oak chugged at the strange concoction and added, “I add a little bit of schnapps or tequila — tequila is also good.” He opined that protein reached the bloodstream faster through this method.

Even as a 15-year-old weight-pumping teenager, Arnie whipped up his protein drink. He added skim milk, yeast, and honey to make the drink. However, Schwarzenegger said, “It would taste like sh**.” The above story shows what an experimenter Arnie is. He has always tinkered with food and nutrition. However, consulting with a doctor before changing your diet is always a smart thing to do.

The 76-year-old actor has successfully maintained his youth through a combination of exercise and nutritional science. Moreover, he is returning to the screen with his new action movie, “Breakout”. The Terminator is raring to go at an age when most people retire. It is proof of his knowledge and hard work. What is your favorite protein source? Tell us in the comments.
