My bad, it’s a typo. I meant 2.2 grams (not kilos) of protein x 80kgs. Which makes my daily protein goal around 175g. I spent a lot of time reading about the subject and 2.2g of protein per kilo of body weight is the number that comes up the most. And it seems to be optimal for muscle maintenance/gain during body recomp.

I’m a man, pretty sedentary job outside of the 4-6 weekly workouts. No idea what my body fat is. All I’m trying to know is can I lose muscle while being at a 500 calorie deficit, despite eating 2g of protein per kg (160g a day) ?

I’m currently on a calorie deficit to lose weight on one side and I’m working out to build muscle on the other side. I looked up the upper body/lower body split and it seems to be what I’m looking for.

No prescription needed. I just use them to maximize the amount of protein my body can absorbe. But it’s hard to find info on it and on how many I can take a day
