“At the peak of tremendous and victorious effort, while the blood is pounding in your head, all suddenly becomes quiet within you. Everything seems clearer and whiter than ever before, as if great spotlights had been turned on. At that moment, you have the conviction that you contain all the power in the world, that you are capable of everything, that you have wings. There is no more precious moment in life than this, the white moment, and you will work very hard for years just to taste it again.” 
– Yuri Vlasov, Soviet Weightlifter

Protein may strengthen your bones as well as your muscles.  In a study at the U.K.”s University of Surrey, lead researcher Andrea Darling, Ph.D(c), found that protein may increase the hormone that boosts bone mineral density.  The amount you need varies with your level of activity.  The simplest guidline: Eat some protein at every meal.  (Men’s Health 4/2010)
