[cenk]

I'm naturel and i'm taking milk and egg pro (daily 40 gr protein) since two months. can i take it for one year long?? or should i take a break.

You can suppliment protien all year long. If you take in more than what you need, then your body just gets rid of it.

never stop protein

As long as you're working out you need extra protein -at least 1gm/lb of bodyweight (sorry I don't know that in kg). That's an absolute minimum in my opinion.

I think most people will tell you you need to make sure you keep up your water intake and avoid dehydration when eating high protein. Also, if you are getting too much protein your body will most likely let you (and everyone else) know. Undigested protein tends to rot in the gut, causing sulfurous farts that can kill a man at twenty paces.

Bump that up to at least 1.5x

Never stop consuming protien, but you can certainly "Protein Shift". On days off, you don't need as much as you would need on training days. Protein Shifting isn't a bad idea since it gives your body a rest. And yes, there is such a thing as TOO much protein.

Xkg x 2.2 = Exactly 1g Protein Per LB

Xkg x 3.3 = Exactly 1.5g Protein per LB

Ronny I made a thread similar to this and Swolecat thought protein was more important on OFF days: http://anabolicreview.com/vbulletin/...ad.php?t=78060

Theoretically it would make sense since it gives adequate protein to repair while resting, but practically it doesn't. I'll post up some interesting studies. Gimme a few minutes to find them again.

I can't find the article on the net, but there was a big write-up in Muscular Development awhile back on Protein shifting with some very interesting statistics. But I'll continue to support my theory, I just gotta eat first!
