Should you eat lots of protein even if you're losing weight?
>>
>>36289758
ofc
>>
Protein is a total meme and anyone who hasn't worked this out has fallen hook line and sinker for shilling Jew companies who want to sell their supplements
>>
>>36289795
what isn't a meme then
>>
>>36289795
>protos are a meme
Vegan go and stay go.
>>
>>36289758
Over all yes, however you need to be mindful of how you are obtaining it and what you are eating with said protein.
>>
Yes even moreso than normal.

on a bulk your calorie surplus diminishes need for protein somewhat.

on a cut, your goal is to drop pounds while keeping muscle, therefore eating piles of protein to make weight loss muscle sparing is crucial.
>>
Yes. Now do some PSMF.
>>
>>36289758
Don't get your protein from a burger if trying to lose weight, carbs, fats, and other things in the meal will probably hurt you a lot and add extra unneeded calories
>>
>>36289851
And it's 1g per body lbs?
>>
>>36289895
I'm kind of DYEL at the moment just trying to go down to 10% bf before gaining mass
>>
>>36289973
Then do a fuck load of cardio with a decent calorie cut and then build up from that. It will probably be easier and quicker.
>>
>>36289918
That's more than enough for sure. It's pretty much accepted that 0.8g/lb is fine.
>>
>>36290016
I am much more comfy doing lots of bodyweight exercise (pullups dips push ups stomach crunches squats)

That should be fine no?
>>
>>36290124
Yeah I did stuff like that to go from 270->182, but I put a lot more emphasis on cardio and calories until I got to a point where I was around 200 then started doing more serious weights and such. For me focusing on cardio was just one of the best/easiest ways to build up my stamina as well as ease me into better shape.
>>
>>36289918
1g/lb lean body weight

Honestly just get at least 125g and you'll be good
>>
>>36289918
1g/**goal**body weight

RTS,N
>>
>>36290145
Man I'm barely 140 now, at 5'9"
>>
>>36290180
I was 270 at 6'0'', yeah I was a fatass
>>
>>36289918
>>36290065
>>36290147
>>36290151
it's 1g/kg of bodyweight. why does everybody say 1 per lb on here
>>
>>36292504
because that's what it is
>>
>>36293661
just saying it won't make it true pham

>>36293669

dummy
>>
>>36293691
This isn't for bulking muscle you retard
>>
>>36289758
Of course dummy, eat more than you would normally.
>>
>>36293743
then it's 1-1.5 g/kg. not per lb, people just get it confused and fitizens adopted it becuase muh moh is bettah
>>
>>36293773
No the 1 per lb has been preached by alot of people like arnold back in the day, if you dont want to dont eat that much but it has been working for thousands of years.
>>
>>36293832
well, I feel there should be a distinction between arnold tier of muscle growth and a normal person's.
What I'm saying is that many people that come here dont want to become that big, but uninformed anons suggest a quantity of protein that should be taken only if you want to. again, the "more is better" and parroting mentality
