I'm on trt and wondering how much protein I should have I read on here somewhere that using body weight isn't the best indicator and that the metabolic blood panel is a better indicator can anyone chime in???

just 1 gram per lb of lean body mass is fine it don't half to be down to the gram

agreed- LBM not gross body mass. dont confuse the two

When you are trying to find out how much protein you should intake always use the mirror as a judge. Some people get fat off 1 gram per lean mass some don't gain muscle and need more. It is very dependent on your genetics, training and general lifestyle.

1.5-2 grams per pound for most athletes
