What is a Good morning weight lift for women?
Assuming you are asking about the specific lift, Good Morning, this is a wonderful lift to do, assuming you focus primarily on practicing good form. This is an exercise that requires you to simply stand up straight, head up and chest out, feet shoulder with apart, toes slightly facing out. You flex at the hips and bend forward, keeping your back straight, head up, and move your butt straight back. Make sure your shoulders are directly over your toes (do not fall forward or let your heels rise off the floor). Bend until your torso is about parallel to the ground and return back to standing position. Basically, you are performing a theatre or concert bow. Go ahead and bow. Now look forward, straight flat back, and spread your legs about shoulder width while sticking your butt back slightly to position your shoulders over your toes. As I come up from the bend I always tell people it is like waving hi and saying "good morning". Cheesy yes, but it get a chuckle from people.

Why is whey protein good for you?
Personal Experiences:
I use whey protein in a shake for breakfast (sometimes but not every single solitary day). I use whey protein as a quick source of protein to balance out a "diabetic carb spike." (Diabetics who monitor their "glucose" levels with a meter will sometimes put maple syrup on a marvelous slice of toast for breakfast. That's too much carbs at one time and is likely to create a "spike" -- i.e., a registration above 150 even to above 200. A tablespoon, maybe two, of whey protein in a glass of clear water will help slow the metabolism of those carbs down and stop a "crash", which is what causes a diabetic to eat another piece of toast right away: THEY FEEL HUNGRY AGAIN RIGHT AWAY!)
I'm a senior citizen; I live a highly sedentary life because I am disabled so constipation is an issue. And, all proteins are constipating. It is best to "fix" your mind in this way: (a) Eat no protein without a comparable serving of good vegetables: broccoli, celery, carrots, squash and so on, do not eat fruit for this purpose -- not so much corn, and, (b) drink plain water, at least 6-8 glasses a day. VEGETABLES & WATER GO TOGETHER WITH PROTEIN FOR A GOOD NUTRITION EXPERIENCE. You will be able to defacate in a desirable manner with bulk in your stool.
How do you make Hemp natural protein strawberry flavor taste nice?
Compared to the "original/plain" flavour; it does taste nice, strawberry flavour is much better tasting. It's best mixed with weetabix or finely chopped porridge oats & milk. Also mixed with milk in a protein shaker jug that has a mesh lid, put some milk in the shaker first to prevent the powder from sticking to the jug.
