Logging Weight Training and Protein

joyfulrunner22

I do not log my weight training into my cardio for calorie purposes (I do log it into the strength training part). Is there anything negative about me not logging this activity?

Also on average MFP lets me have between 65-75g of protein, should I be eating more (I normally go over, and on days I drink a protein shake I am way over)? I lift 4-5 times a week for about 30-45 minutes. I do the usual: back, chest, legs, and bis and tris. I lift pretty heavy for my build (I think), 70+lbs on most exercises and I can do chin ups/pull ups unassisted. Any advice?

I tend not to bother with logging exercise. Just stick to a daily calorie limit you find suits your needs.

Try to get at lease 0.8-1g of protein per lb in body weight.

I only really log cardio if i do it. it's hard to judge with lifting but if i feel a bit hungrier then i will eat more. I eat 1g of protein for every pound of lean body mass but if i'm honest this is usually at a minimum as i average out more normally.
