Okay, so you know you need to supplement your protein intake. What should you be looking for? The answer really depends on your goals. If you are looking to build lean muscle and drop fat you want a bar that reflects that. Below you will find my top 3 protein bars, my favorite flavor and the best part - the macros (nutrient facts).
- One Bar - This is my FAVORITE protein bar. The flavors they have are amazing. My top 2 are Cinnamon Roll and White Chocolate Truffle.
The Macros: 220-230 cal, 20g Protein, 24g Carbs, 9g Fat, 1g Sugar
- Think Bar - When I run out of OneBars, and need a more widely available protein bar, this is my go-to. My favorite flavor is the Brownie Crunch.
The Macros: 220-230cal, 20g Protein, 24g Carbs, 0g Sugar
- Quest Bar - This bar has the right macros, but honestly the flavors are still more chalky then I would prefer. A lot of people love these so they remain on the list as the back up to the back up! Check them out HERE.
The Macros: 220-230 cal, 20g Protein, 24g Carbs, 9g Fat, 1g Sugar
These are the bars I would buy and the macros I would look for. My goals are to build lean muscle. I’m looking for low sugar content as well as high protein to fuel my muscles and carbs for energy.
