How much protein do you really need to eat? During a cut? A bulk?
How much do you eat personally?

1 gram per pound of body weight. More if bulking

Go with 1g per lb bodyweight always.
Not enough to cause gluconeogenesis
Enough to cover protein on a bulk
Enough to cover protein on a cut.
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU CAN EAT LESS PROTEIN THAN THIS.
THE MORE PROTEIN YOU EAT WITHOUT GLUCONEOGENESIS, = LESS CARBS IN YOUR DIET = LESS WATER WEIGHT= LOOKING GOOD.

But all the advice giving links suggest eating more protons on a cut?
Also why base it on total bodyweight rather than lbm? Everyone overestimates their lbm anyway so no worries about not getting enough via underestimation
>>35441119
You get enough of it in a balanced diet, so a piece of meat at least twice a day.
If you want to support the fitness industry, make sure you buy protein powder and all kinds of supplements that bodybuilders are paid to tell you are necessary. These people need a source of income too.

then fuck off and stop asking for advice if you're going to dismiss it out of hand
1g per lb is enough for protein, accept it or stop posting

Still failing to point out that researchers use "bodyweight" as a proxy for LBM.

Take-away: 1.8g/kg **lean body mass** is the max for a strength athlete for his muscles.
Please always calculate **per lean body mass**. If you weight 150 kg and you have 35% body fat, you shall NOT eat 1.8g*150.
Addendum: in order to maximize gains, you could divide your protein intake in no more than 30grams per eating session. Possibly, 20 grams. E.g. if your target is 120 grams, you'd better eat 4 times a day, including 30 grams protein each time. Possibly, go for 6 times a day, 20 grams protein each time.
If you can't have that many lunches, don't worry - still try to aim for the protein intake goal. Anyway, the protein exceeding the maximum quantity the body can process for muscle synthesis *could* become irreversibly oxidized - the exceeding proteins will be used for other (still worthy) purposes.
