Seriously overstating the calorie content. Fat Free milk has 80-90 calories per 8oz serving, but offers up 8g of protein. Right on about so many people having issues digesting lactose, though.

Your nutrition can also help. Ingest some high quality protein about the time you are working out. If you like Protein powder, a shake is a really helpful tool for building muscle.
