    For a start, it's not ANYTHING per ib of bodyweight.....it's per lb of lean bodyweight which is an important distinction that people don't often make.


    As for how much you need, there are many, many arguments etc….personally I do well on high protein, moderate fat, low carb diets.

    I'm normally eating about 450+ grams of protein a day. Or there abouts. But that’s just me, some people eat more, some people eat less.

    Chicken, fish, eggs, lean red meats and protein shakes.

    The usual suspects basically.
