at least 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight, if you can get in 1.5 - 2 grams that is even better.
really? hmm i heard 1 g per pound of bodyweight was just enough...like if ure 180 then u should have 180g....maybe im totally wrong tho because its harder for me to hold back on protein rather than tryin to eat enough.![]()

1g/lb bodyweight is the very minimum I would suggest. 1.5g/lb being ideal IMO.![]()

1g per pound is good, if you're trying to avoid protein-related malnutrition if you're an athlete...you want to stay in positive nitrogen balance all the time and ensure your body as much high quality muscle-building fuel as possible, at a constant rate, personally I go as high as 2g per pound, I've even gone to 2.4 g while cutting, but that's just me. My essential fat intake every day is always constant, it's just my protein and carb levels that I play with on a daily basis, but my protein never really goes below 1.6.
Peace.
