What does you daily protein intake look like?
I'm probably only getting like 100g a day, I don't know how the fuck you guys are consuming 200g+ shit must be like $20/day
>I don't know how the fuck you guys are consuming 200g+ shit must be like $20/day

why would you need to eat 200g of protein a day when the average lifter could gain maybe 20g of muscle a day
we all know the body isnt efficient but the claim that you need a lot of protein is made up by the fitness industry to sell you protein powder
Doesnt make sense? look at all the protein powder brands avaible and the different kind of subtypes(egg protein, pea protein, whey concentrate, isolate, hydrolate, etc)
Also look at how every fitness youtuber says you need a lot of protein and at the same time tries to sell you protein powder
there are many studies saying 1-1.5g/kg of lean mass is enough. If you are doing it for the satiating effect fine but dont post how about you NEED it
>>36698439
>why would you need to eat 200g of protein a day when the average lifter could gain maybe 20g of muscle a day
You have no idea what the protein synthesis is, I see.
>>36698456
And you have no idea what muscle protein synthesis threshold means
>>36698456
tell me then
>>36698470
And you have no idea what roiding means.
>>36698439
the way i think of it is you best of having more than you need..
its only money you only live once
>>36698473
Your body can only digest like 20g of protein in an hour. Idk much else about what he's saying. So all these people doing like 3 scoops of protein you're wasting money.
>>36698439
>why would you need to eat 200g of protein a day when the average lifter could gain maybe 20g of muscle a day
Looks like you've never heard of positive nitrogen balance, the bigger you get, the more protein you need to maintain positive nitrogen balance, positive nitrogen balance is required to actually gain muscle on your frame.
I've been lifting for 6 years, I've tried low protein, moderate protein, high protein. I know for a fact that more protein = much better body-composition. I did low-moderate protein intake for a long time and lost size and strength, it doesn't fucking work.
>>36698439
There are studies saying more protein=more gains and better body composition
Breakfast: Eye of the round steak or buffalo burgers.
Noon: Eye of round or buffalo, sometimes lazy and just eat beef jerky.
Evening: Sometimes cow ass, buffalo, jerky, sometimes with vegetables like rice and carrots or green beans.
I generally do these on a rotation when I get sick of the other, then replace it with good ol' chicken breasts and fish when I get sick of both.
I eat A LOT of beef jerky, and that shit ain't cheap in $6 a bag, I tried to make homemade but I'm a lazy fucker and it's too much work.

You need protein to maintain the muscle you already have, oh wait sorry... You have none
>>36698553
3 scoops thought the day not in one go
>>36698345
>12 egg whites
>80g
Are you retarded? Egg whites account for approx. 60% of the protein in an egg. Even in those XXL eggs with 8g protein, you're getting 4.8g protein per egg white.
4.8 x 12 = 57.6

Protein powder is actually a pretty cheap prot source, comparitively. Runs me about $130/month.
>>36698608
basicly confirming that youre new
>>36698553
Google it I don't know the link sorry anon
>>36698313
100-140 grams is enough
>>36698640
that's like half my food budget for the month
you fell for the powdered jew
I try to eat around 180g of protein. It's hard but doable as long as I pay attention to what I eat.
>>36698313
1 gram per lb is meme
0.8 is more like it
>Refusing to spend money on the fuel for your body that will have a noticable effect on your gains
This is like bringing a hockey club to the golf course. I never knew /fit/ was this cheap.
After I actually started eating more protein, I gained more strength and muscle.
Crazy stuff
>>36698345
that's a shit ton of eggs man.
>>36698388
fuck off faggot. tuna is king.
>>36698640
That's more than my monthly food budget. Are you Canadian?
>>36698640
its pretty costly though but for 60g of proteins for 270cals? Fuck yea I'd buy.
>>36698640
>130 a month
Hahahaha hahahaha plz be a troll
>>36698611
Your body doesn't make shit except shit. It's what you put in.
Protein synthesis requires amino acids, which come from... surprise! Other proteins.
>>36698313
I'm at 155 lb at 5'7'' and I try to get at least 180g of protein each day. I'm also on a cut which means I'm eating at around 1600-1800's cal each day.
>>36698313
I eat 300g + everyday.
You get used to it after a while. Back when I was a scrawny faggot, I too used to only be able to consume 100 to 150 grams a day
>>36698313
At the moment, 150-180g per day. Kinda tricky because I'm only eating around 9000kJ and trying to keep costs down.
>how the fuck you guys are consuming 200g+ shit must be $20/day
kek, nah. Never had to go over $10-12/day. There's always a cheap 35+% protein food somewhere. Lentils and kidney beans if you're actual poverty tier, although they're incomplete. Beef mince, heart, silverside, tinned salmon, chicken breast, various sausages, burger pattys, eggs, cheese, etc if you're just poor like me. What's cheap ($ per 1000kJ) depends where you live. Then you just gotta know good recipes. Pasta with a meat-heavy sauce is the food of the gods if you're bulking.
>>36698357
I eat 4 whole eggs and 8-10 egg whites everyday. I also eat chicken breast and beef.
I bet you eat salads and twiddle with you butthole,faggot
Remember to also count the protein found in carb heavy (and some fat heavy) foods. 100g of oats is 17g of protein.
>>36698640
Even if you buy relatively expensive protein like ON that would equal over 11lbs of protein powder a month, or 175g/day. That's more than 5 scoops of protein every day. C'mon.
>>36698822
Uhm, no shit?
>>36698822
Also, alot of these faggots forget. Never forget to count the protien in all that cum you ugly cock suckers gulp down.
>>36698841
Well, it's not "no shit" for everyone. Some people (especially beginners) tend to only look at the protein rich food, whilst ignoring other sources of protein.
>>36698859
How is that even possible? Just because a certain food is (somehow) classified as "not protein rich" the proteins that are in it don't count?
I'm sorry but I refuse to believe people are that stupid. The 13g of protein that are found in 100g of the oats I eat are proteins too. #AllProteinsMatter
>>36698875

>all proteins matter
but some proteins matter more than others :^)
160-200g daily, weighed in at 190lbs this morning
>>36698313
500ml of milk - 16g - 23p?
2 scoops - 24g - 50p (roughly)
250g of chicken thigh - 50g (breast is better for protein but i dont need that much more protein) - £1.25
2 tins of sardines - 44g - 80p
300g of cottage cheese - 30g - 64p
not counting rice and oats and mushy pea proteins
so as you can see that is: 174g of protein for £3.40~ a day, and a fuck load of calories (breast meat would reduce the calories, as would using lesser fat milk, as would getting brined sardines, as would generally eating less outside of this)
eggs are also cheap as fuck if you know where to look.
>>36698313

>>36698945
That's for age. It has nothing to do with lifting/gains.
Positive nitrogen balance to gain muscle means you're putting in more protein into your body than your body needs to sustain it's current amount of lean mass.
If you want to increase your lean mass on your frame, you will need to increase your protein intake, if you don't your body will not be in a state of positive nitrogen balance, negative nitrogen balance means your body will begin to cannibalize itself in order to repair muscle fibers in other areas. Yes, that actually happens. The only way your body repairs itself and adds NEW muscle cells is when you are in positive nitrogen balance, without that, it cannot build new muscle cells, it can only take protein from other sources of the body, to repair the damage, it wont grow more.

ON and dymatize, total 12lbs/month. 4 scoops on rest days, 5 on training days, sometimes additional ones when i'm in a rush or don't want to cook. 30$/week for protein alone really isn't much on a cut consisting of 1100-1400 calories a day. Oats, eggs, tuna, mushrooms, and onions make up like 95% of the rest of my diet. I'd probably be soending more if not exactly the same if i tried to get all my prots from real food.

>>36698313
Protip: you're probably not using more than 90g of proteins/day for muscle protein synthesis if you're having just three meals/day. And I'm considering you're evenly distributing your proteins.
Fun fact: You probably won't need more. Unless you're training for Mr. Universe and/or gym is your only one job you'll need less than 1.8g/kg of _lean_ mass; 1.4 is more than enough. Assuming you're 182 cm and 85 kg, 15% bf you're golden with 100g protein/day. If you weight less/your lean body mass is lower than 72 kg, do not fucking care about taking more than 100g proteins.
>>36701329
Im an rd.
Whenever I eat around 2g of protein per kg I get constipated. I can drink up to 4l of water, eat whatever amount of fiber, but I still can't go number 2.
Protein shake
Eggs
MILK
chicken
.8 of 180.
thats around 130g thats i like to aim around
2 scoops whey: 50g
12oz chicken: around 70-80g
greek yogurt: 20g
beans/oats/bread/pasta (for the whole day) : 20g
I don't know where you people are getting your information but literally every reputable resource out there I've read says to eat 1g protein per lb of your total body weight if you want to build muscle. None of you are citing sources for your reasoning. You'll all full of shit and should read the sticky.

Are you retarded? Your body can synthesis amino acids without eating protein.
Vegetarian here, so my protein comes mostly from milk based sources..
About 150g a day. Sometimes more.
1 scoop protein powder in the morning ~ 25g
1 protein bar for lunch ~ 20g
500g low fat quark ~ 50g
Another scoop after workout and one before going to sleep ~ 50g
For dinner i get mostly plant based proteins, so that does not really count...
>>36698313
250g at 185lb
>>36702224
Thats the minimum ammount for Sedentary. Its enough to stave sarcopenia.
Is it OK to take like 3 protein shakes a day for 100g of protein? I can usually only get about 50 from food on a daily basis.
>>36702096
.8 is the new standard, it was done on oly athletes, they found no difference in muscle size with those eating .8 and those eating higher
>>36702148
Do you lift weights with strength or hypertrophy in mind? If not, then that diet is probably fine, though the RDA for a normal adult male is a smidge over 50g.
