protein
how protein should I take a day? My body weight is 220 and interest in losing some weight. I do weight train 3 days a week and cardio 2 days a week. But unsure about the proper intake of protein. I heard about .2 per body weight is that correct?

Agreed. I shoot for 1g per pound or slightly more. Before I started paying attention to diet, I estimate that I got about .5 grams per pound. I definitely noticed a difference in gains when I increased my protein intake.Originally posted by atherjen
