Working out can cause you to have protein get into your urine.

The reason working out causes protein in your urine is because of plasma concentration of angiotensin II that increases during exercise, leading to filtration of protein through the glomerular membrane.

The Protein in your urine should clear up on it's own within a day or two of not exercising and working out but if not you should go see a doctor and get A urine test done.
