Don't fall for the 1g/bw meme guys
Sounds like your body can't process the protein that well. I follow 1g/lb bodyweight and my body is doing just fine.
Same as the anabolic window meme
You can literally get your calories at any moment of day

I guess there are some benefits to having poor genetics.

Was the same for me until I actually worked hard in the gym. Push your body and it'll garble dat protein ez.

Yup
bw/g and "anabolic window" are both pushed by fitness supp industry to make sure you buy their overpriced protein supps

>bulking at 190lbs 6'2"
Yeah, if you think I honestly need about 200 fucking grams of protein to make gains then lol
>>36952615
it's called a rule of thumb, it's just a guideline
also you're probably not lifting frequently enough or hard enough to warrant 1g/pound
I promise when you grow up and start lifting heavier you'll need more protein to make proper gains.
>the anabolic window is a myth
it's not a myth it's just that the "window" is huge, like 8 hours, so it's moot to call it a window really

How do people struggle to eat protein so much, are you recovering veggie fags or something
I only eat like 40 grams of protein and get hella gains
Carbs are way better for building muscle
