How much protein do you need per day for muscle growth? How many meals should you eat per day? What about protein for bulking vs cutting? What are the best sources of protein? How should you time protein around your workout? How much protein should vegans eat?
Study referenced: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28698222/
how much protein should you eat per day to maximize muscle growth well the latest research analyzing 49 studies found that you really only need 0.7 grams of protein per pound of body weight so if you weigh 175 pounds or 80 kilos 130 grams of protein per day will max out your gains and going beyond that as quote no further benefit on gains now if you're in a caloric deficit for fat loss or you want to be extra safe going as high as one gram per pound May provide some extra anabolic insurance but is probably Overkill and if you're overweight you should use your goal weight instead of your current weight how do you space your protein out is less important but eating three to six high protein meals is better than just one or two meals per day try to eat some protein within a five hour window around your workout and amino acid supplements don't seem to work as long as you're eating enough protein protein sources shouldn't really matter as long as you hit your daily total and you should count protein from all food sources but since animal proteins are usually higher in leucine than vegan proteins you might want to add a few extra grams of protein to vegan meals

MacroFactor is the diet coaching app I am a part owner of and it uses science-based algorithms to determine your individual nutrition needs based on your metabolism specifically. I may be biased, but I truly believe it is the best nutrition app on the market — get a free 2 week trial at the link above and try it out for yourself! Good luck and keep me posted on how it goes!
I miss this hair and how thiccc you were
Is it just me or licking the fingers after protein sprinkle clip was daamn cute😂❤
I usually eat around 110-160 a day. I usually get to around 110 then I eat some almonds and a few spoon fulls of peanut which boosts me to around 130 and sometimes I get to around 160.
First time I've seen a YouTube lifter standing next to a tub of protein in a kitchen without trying to sell it to you. Use code JEFF10 to get ten percent off your whole order. And why not try our new berry blast pre workout, it has a photo of a gorilla on the front with red eyes so you just know that it means it's all scientifically proven (cuts to stock image of balding scientist in lab coat)
Depending on ur gym schedule. If U include a decent amount of cardio weekly U need more protein to prevent muscle loss. So this information is not quite detailed but good video overall bro.
Merci, un résumé intelligent !
That was such a succinct/great summary of a lot of research
what im trying to say to the cringe gym guys, saying u need 300-400 grams protein, and the more the better…
IT'S NOT ABOUT PROTIEN. THAT'S BEEN A HUGE MYTH! ONLY TO SELL PRODUCTS AND FEED THE STEROID MACHINE! AMINO ACIDS AND MINERALS IS WHAT UR BODY NEEDS. AND MAGNESIUM😅
I have about 100g I still grow n heal so not true.
Take your age into consideration 6 protein meals for an older man say 50”s and moderate in the gym is way too much.
I love how he put in "I am a part-owner of macrofactor" it seems like so many gym influencers promote their app without saying that it's theirs.
gain your protein with a chicken breast guys!
Eating 6 meals a day, compared to 3 or 2, gives you exactly the same results, and neither provides any additional benefits over the other.
Study: Effects of meal frequency on body composition (2018).
can a normal person just aim for 100g and be done with the math??
Wait, amino acid supplements dont mayter as long as you eat enough protein? My protein powder has amino acids included, is that a waste? Also isn't creatine an amino acid or amino I tripping?
Is harddddd to get that much protein.. it shouldn’t be.. I should be able to go to the store and get chicken and steak for a couple bucks, maybe supplement a shake in there.. but it sucks to have to drink like 2 or 3 shakes a day, and eat steak and chicken 3 meals a day, just to hit protein goals..
I was reading a lifting article the other day that said it's impossible to build muscle in a caloric deficit.😮 Thanks to your channel, I know that's not true.
Yup Mike Mentzer helped me break the high protein nonsense brainwash.
I don't get it help me with the math how is o.7 grams of protein per kg of bodyweight translate to 130g of proteins per day?
I think he is mixing up pounds and kg
As someone who is 175 thanks for doing the math for me
This is out of date info now
Me:drinking 26 grams of protein
"Protein" – Said 12 times. This is my type of content, I LOVE IT!
gram per pound ????
I was counting macros religiously at the start but overtime I could figure out an estimate of what I’m consuming daily. It’s fascinating learning how many calories are in basic everyday ingredients
Tnx
It's not true
I'm finding diet to be harder than actually going to the gym lol
how do i know if im overweight? 168 cm on 75kg
This helps me a lot cuz i agonize over this question all the time. And I love the macrofactor app and am so damn grateful for it!
So if my goal weight is 140lbs, I should be eating 112g a day? That seems too low to build muscle
I weigh around 75KG for 170CM, I want to weigh 60KG. should i eat then around 100gr of p instead 120 grams?
Dr. Huberman and Dr. Gabrielle Lyon don’t agree at all. They both are in firm conviction it’s 1 gram per lbs of ideal body weight for effective and sustainable muscle protein synthesis.
Is it same in cutting phase ?
That is such bs. I've done my own studies on myself and I get WAY more gains from eating over 1g per pound than .7. Maybe it's bro science but it works for me and alot of others. Tell that to Eddie Hall lol. I'm sure his strongman gains woulda been maxed out too at .7 🙄 lmao
As a person doing bulking , should I use my goal weight too or my current weight’s protein need will be enough according to that 1.6g per kg ?
I don’t see this written enough in his videos. This man in gorgeous.
اخيرا شخص يقول إن البروتين النباتي مش مهمل تعبت و انا بقول أن الجسم بيستخدم الأحماض الامينية الفي اللحوم و البروتين النباتي و بيكون بروتين كامل 🗿
What if youre slim trying to build muscle? More protein or less
Then and only then, can you add the protein
Haven't read the article, but looking at the link and checking out "Figure 5" we can see no real concensus between the different groups. They took the average of these groups (that hold no concensus) and saw the average gains increase up to 1.62 g after which we se a plateau of no increased amount of gains.
Sounds kind of dubious to me.
