How much protein do you consume each day?

[theron]

I for one try to consume around 150 to 200grams per day.

[PaPaPumP]

50g a meal X 7-8 meals a day.
So....350-400ish G

[Canes4Ever]

I weigh approximitly 220 so I do 1.5 grams per lb = 330

[MIKE_XXL]

300 gm when dieting and about 350-400gm when trying to gain weight

[silverfox]

400ish....

[Project X]

50-55 grams 7-8 times a day

[Pheedno]

I am going to be starting threads soon as what, when, and how to even pick the right BB contest. It has been over 10 years since I stepped on stage.

Diesel you did a show before ? Wow bro, I didn't know that

[TheDfromGC]

i dont see how u guys can get that much protein at each meal.....i mean do u eat 20 oz steaks at every meal? when i try to eat huge i might get like 200 grams if that. eating that much protein seems like it would get expensive

[PaPaPumP]

K.K.

You don't just all of a sudden start eating 400-600g of protein per day. You start at like 1g per lb, and that is PLENTY for a while. . .then you bump it, and all of a sudden you got 5 more lbs with no change in bodyfat...and so on. And yes, it does get expensive. . .damn expensive.

[HARDCORE]

About 350-400 daily. My grocery bill goes around 500-600 a month-

[Pembo]

Sorry to change the tone. But I have read that starches and protiens are not meant to be mixed to gether because protien needs an acidic environment to be digested fully, whereas starches need an alkiline environment. Therefore if you put them in together you don't get good adsorption ande this leads to giving you wind. This makes bobybuilders diets sound bad. Is this BULL SH*T or not? It sounds like it I just wondered if anyone knows for sure.

[xenithon]

actually there are a number of theories. the one I stick by is that you should eat carbs and protein together because each causes release of a cerain hormone/enzyme, and if only 1 is produced it kicks you slighly out of homeostasis

Loooong time ago. I was 19 and I entered a show in Cape Cod. It was a 'last minute' thing. Of course at 19 I didn't need as much preparation time as I would now. My metabolism was much higher then.

Oh yeah, I know that feeling. At 19 I was 6ft 2 adn 135 lbs, and could eat anything and everything and never gained an ounce. Now I look at ice cream, and I gain a couple of lbs .

[beenie]

Between 300 and 400 grams. Not gaining weight. Not trying to either!
