    Protein should be 1.5 to 2 times your body weight. so if you weight 180 your protein intake should be that times 2. Answer your ???

    Everyone is different but Sicilian30's recommendation is the rule of thumb. In this case more is most definitely better.

    A good way to tell if are getting enough is whether you are getting bigger or not, LOL!!!
