    You need 1/3 gram of protein per pound of body weight. So if you weigh 150, you need 50 grams. You would be surprised how much food had protein. My daily target is 60g and I always end up intaking (is that a word?) 80 to 90 grams per day.
    What? Where did you get that from?

    Hold on, I'm going to eat 55g of protein per day. As I'm doing compound lifts while training.

    OP, .6-.87g per lb of bodyweight will suffice.


    This is the answer you're looking for ^^^
