Is 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight a meme?

Yes, .5 is fine for naturals

>>41395326
its in the right ball park. if youre a little over/under its not going to do you any harm

>>41395326
Sort of, optimal max is 0.82 grams per pound of lean body mass.

>>41395326
If you're not getting paid to be shredded year round, certainly.

It depends on the study you read, but 1g of protein per pound of body weight seems to be the upper limit so consume that much if you want to be safe.

I shoot for 1.5g per pound of bodyweight. Not just for muscle gains, also for satiety. I have a long history personally with being fat, super fat, and have found that protein is the most satisfying and hardest to overeat macro for me.

So I see a lot of questions on how much you should eat, I simply base my diet around protein and eat to satiety.

No one has ever gotten fat on protein. It's literally impossible.

>>41395354
0.82 is correct

>tfw 200 pounds
>1500 calorie diet
>only managing 100 grams of protein per day
>nuts for brekky, 2 scoops protein shake for lunch and brocolli/cottage cheese for supper

my life is a dyel nightmare

>>41395326
1.5 gram per kg

>>41395335
This is bullshit, unless the person is obese. Don't sabotage other people's gains. 1-1.5g/lb of lean body weight at least.

a wide variety of studies show ranges from 0.5 to 1.0 being the minimum to progress in muscle mass. Its all up the individual honestly. Apparently, some fucks can even pack on muscles with milk and oats

>anime was a mistake

Can anyone post links to studies?

So is it right to assume that as long as I get my daily protein needs eg 200g a day, and I'm cutting then my muscle will still remain because of the protein and I would only lose fat weight?

>>41397033
no? where the fuck did you read that? you will lose some muscles unless you start juicin

>>41397079
I see, I read that protein is needed for the creation and maintenance of muscles so I jumped and assumed/hoped that would be that case.

>>41397176
>I see, I read that protein is needed for the creation and maintenance of muscles so I jumped and assumed/hoped that would be that case.

That is the case. But there's more to it than that.

>>41397033
You'll just lose less muscle that way.
Depending on how much of your body is composed of muscle, you may need to consume up to 3.1g/kg of protein.

its 0.8-1.5 g per pounds of LEAN body mass
depending if you're bulking or cutting and plenty other shit. But you wont go wrong with 1g

>>41397273
I'm poor and some sources say 0.6 g per pound of body weight. I'm trying to bulk with a 500 calorie surplus.

>>41397515
Wouldn't eating it via food be cheaper. no?

150 x .6 = 90 grams protein, shouldn't be too difficult to achieve but I'm a poorfag.

>>41397523
MUH DICK

>>41397627
You can make gains on .6 but why bother when you know you can eat more and not waste time? It won't be massive but it'll add up; over a year, maybe you would've made a month or two's worth of extra gains if you ate all that protein.
Eating protein via food isn't really that much cheaper, but if you want to, learn how to cook some good chicken recipes. Szechuan, tikka masala and teriyaki are good ones to learn.
I'm eating on a ~€300/month budget in the Nordics(food's expensive af), and getting 150g+ of protein every day.

>>41397743
I can cook, not the best at making stuff taste good but it gets by. Thanks for the advice. I'll try to do .8-1 depending on my expenses.

Per kilogram, not per pound. I wish you dumb Amerilards would stop spreading misinformation because you refuse to use SI units instead of your idiotic units of measure.

>The DRI (Dietary Reference Intake) is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, or 0.36 grams per pound. This amounts to: 56 grams per day for the average sedentary man.

Yes. It's a stupid meme that will make your liver work hard pointlessly.
I literally made small gains eating 400g of chicken every day.
Your body can't absorb all that and will just pass away the rest.

Changing my diet and eating different types of protein (meat, beans, fish) 150-200g gave me 6 kg of muscles in 4 months

>>41395401
0.5 is enough for a training person. It has no margin for error. That's why most bb will go 1g and more. But realistically, if you're just a normal gym rat and not a body builder, 100g of protein per day is enough.

Yeah, I was talking about just dinner there. I was also taking 3 protein shakes per day, having a full bag of mixed nuts every day and a healthy high protein lunch

>>41399171
Protein shakes are one of the things I noticed doesn't work for me. I would be getting 3500kcal per day and lots of protons because of all the whey, yet still stayed skinny at like 70kg and had trouble progressing on my lifts. Made a diet overhaul into stuff like quark for breakfast, high protein meals for lunch and dinner, cottage cheese and nuts as snacks during the day while dropping the whey, and suddenly exploded to 80+kg at a diet of like 3000kcal. Lifts exploded and I got stretch marks all over my arms and butt from the gains. The protein shakes must've been running straight through me

so .7-.82g/lb for maintenance, what's the figure like for cutting then? 1-1.2g/lb?

You should be aiming for 1g per Lean body mass.

Always heard it as .8 to 1.2 grams per pound of lean body mass. Eat more depending on how hard you work out.

How do I find a girl with a body like that? Reminds me of my ex, except she had smaller boobs. OP, I only recently upped my protein to 1g/lb. I'm 165 lb, 6'0". I used to just eat around 100g of protein per day. I've noticed significantly more gains, although I'm not sure if it's the protein or if it's because I'm only a few months into lifting.

>>41395326

Anecdotally over the last year of lifting (5th year), I've found no difference whatsoever in the rate of gains between 0.9 g/lb and 2+ g/lb protein, except your diet is waaaaay tastier on the lower end.

>>41395326
But what if I'm overweight? I would have to eat 40 oz of chicken breast a day. And at that point. It's not even a diet lmao.

>>41406312
That's why you use your lean body mass

>>41395326
Nope.
However, consuming much more than 1g pr. pound is a complete waste.
Protein is the last chain of macro-combustion, meaning that if you consume the correct amount of each macros, any excess protein will be expelled in your urine, meaning you LITTERALLY pee out all of that precious protein that the internet/marketing sites tell you to consume. (the body uses carbs first, fat secondly and protein as the last resort of energy production)
For an average person, about 100g of protein per day should suffice.
