Do i still need this much protein ?

[bladerunner9]

I do not do legs at all just leg extension and cardio if it come to hit legs coz of my lower back problem. I am bit confused here. Is it meant to consume 2.5 gm protein /kg even if you are just working out your upper body and NOT lower ? or can one consume lesser than that ?
I consume around 2.5 gm /kg

Just curious to know this.

even with lower back problems you should be able to do leg extensions, leg curls, and seated calve raises. not a complete routine but still enough to grow some wheels.

humm good idea. You now when you are dead with back even the slightest idea do not come to mind. You are always helping, Thank Big.

And about the protein question ?

i think the protein should probably be about the same. like if you lift upper body you aren't gonna eat less than when you do legs. and 2.5g/kg doesn't seem like you have to force down the food

yeah thats right. But Big has created the problem and i have to start legs too...LOL
Not a problem, will continue taking that much. Thanks guys.
