Kinesiologist recommends 175g protein for 136lbs woman?
Hi, I am not new to weight lifting, bulking/cutting and counting macros. As far as I know, if you want to put on muscle, the grams of protein you eat should be equal to your lean body mass (or some say your entire weight). So I was a bit surprised when the kinesiologist at the gym said 175g of protein instead of somehere…

I think this is partly a result of her trying to cook low-calorie meals for my dad (who is a…
