Thread: protein intake

im 6 ft 2 230 lbs and been working out hard for last 10 weeks, about 4 weeks ago i hit a plateau where i was not getting bigger or stronger (particularly on my chest and biceps, my best parts). so i went through these forums and basucally found that i was massively overtraining.

so with the help of people on here i changed my workout, cut out loads of the volume , did mainly compound exercises etc etc

now heres the point , on top of this i thougt if i wanna really bulk ive gotta make sure im getting enough protein. my diet is a bit hit and miss and as im not gonna go into a competition or anything i dont wanna spend hours analysing my diest. so i bought a whey protein. i read on hereyou need 1g for every lb of weight. so thats 235g protein a day. now having read these forums thats a hell of a lot . in one serving of my post protein shake it says it has 17g protein.

should i be upping the amount of this stuff i have ?

Your protein intake is fine.

If you are looking at bulking check your carbs and fats.
