Goa fitness coach shares how to hit 100 grams protein every day: Check top 5 vegetarian options and 4 non-veg options
When it comes to building a better physique, forget the hype. You need a blueprint, not a magic trick. According to Goa-based fitness coach Dharma Kumar, aka Beardholic, the blueprint can start with a non-negotiable target: 100 grams of protein, consumed daily.
Choose your fuel, secure your gains
He dropped the ultimate cheat sheet on Instagram, proving that hitting the 100 grams protein mark isn’t a grind – it’s a game of picking just four power-packed items from his list. Dharma’s strategy is simple: every item below delivers approximately 25 grams of high-grade protein. Stack any four throughout your day, and you’re good.
In an Instagram post on February 8, he wrote in his caption: “Here’s how you are going to hit your 100 grams protein in a day. Swipe and choose any four, and you will be sorted.”
Top 4 non-vegetarian protein options
Dharma shared four non-vegetarian options, the tried-and-true heavy hitters for rapid repair and growth:
⦿ Raw prawns 100 grams = 25 grams of protein
⦿ 4 whole eggs = 24 grams of protein
⦿ 120 grams chicken breast = 25 grams of protein
⦿ Tuna 120 grams = 28 grams of protein
Top 5 vegetarian protein options
Don’t eat meat? No problem. The vegetarian options Dharma shared are dense, effective, and easily integrated into meals. Dharma shared these 5 high-protein vegetarian options:
⦿ 50 grams soya chunks = 25 grams of protein
⦿ Skyr 250 grams (an Icelandic cultured dairy product) = 27 grams of protein
⦿ 1 scoop whey = 24 grams of protein
⦿ 100 grams low fat paneer = 25 grams of protein
