Macros question
Say if your protein daily intake should be say 350grams of protein, if you only eat say 200grams of protein but your calories for the day are over what you need to grow muscle, will you still grow muscle?

Who said you need 350 a day. Many bb only do 1 lb pro for body weight some do 1.5 and some do 2. It just matters your body and how you respond. Yes we need pro but we also needs carbs and sleep/rest to grow.
I know a few peeps that have tried an increase in pro over a 6 month period to see if results were there and they all said no, its a waste of money.
To each his own. You in time will know your body best

It all depends on how you respond to diff macros as said by gearbox . I eat around 350-400 and i grow more than if i eat 1g/lb so see how your body respond to it and set it

Very few ppl need a protein intake of 350g. There are a few requirements to build new muscle mass: a surplus of calories, adequate protein intake, and sufficient training stimulus to disrupt homeostasis. If you're training with intensity and/or volume to disrupt homeostasis and are in a caloric surplus, than the difference between 200g and 350g of protein will be negligible for MOST ppl.
