    From where did you get your targets? Hard as anything to figure this stuff out without knowing some about you.

    For instance, I'm MESOMORPH who is almost an ENDOMORPH. I need very little protein (or cals for that matter) to make a freak load of muscle. Unfortunately, I have to bust *kitten* to lose weight so no way 15 minutes of cardio would work for me to trim weight. I run 4 - 8 miles everyday just to maintain - and I never, ever drop below about 125. On the flip, I am considered small for my weight of 135 and 5'1". I am usually a size 4/5. When I was body building I ate a lot more protein than you have above and I ran 30 minutes five days a week.

    I might post this again if I were you with a title that indicates you need assistance specifically with body building. You'd like get a better response.

    Hope this helps.
