i've never heard 1g per kg, i've heard 1g per pound up to 2 g per pound. Make sure the bulk of it comes from real food

i shoot for about 1.5g of protein/lb about 60g of that comes from shakes..one of those being pwo and the other right before bed

i agree with everyone else 1.5-2g/lb. of body weight so if you weigh say 200 lbs you want to take in 300-400g of protein a day but like said before make sure most of it is from real foods at least 75-80% but thats just my opinion
