Before Dry Scooping Pre-Workout, Consider These Risks

“Dry scooping” is a trend made popular by social media influencers in which you consume a dry scoop of pre-workout — straight-up. (You can also dry scoop protein powder, but that’s not as common.)

Whey Protein Isolate vs Concentrate: Which Is Better?

You probably know protein is an important part of the muscle-building process. But this macronutrient matters more than you may think. It also plays an essential role in recovery and even bone health.
