do you even lift…that was awesome, lol  I've heard that too much protein is bad for the liver.  of course that is probably a true statement.  but what is too much.  I would guess that you and other fitness gurus would differ with the main stream medical peeps

I wonder how much genetics factors in to this. I have a vegan buddy who eats a shit ton of fruits and vegetables and consumes around .5g/lb of bodyweight and is always making huge progress in the gym. Is it because he's at a caloric surplus?

im confused about the " how much protein should you consume " I get that he said it varies depending on your ideal weight and what type of training you do, can someone point me in the right direction for this, any sites or articles??

So if I'm doing lots of cardio and some endurance and have an ideal weight of 65 kg, I'm guessing I should be around 1.2 – 1.7g / 65kg so around (78 – 110,5) g protein / day

Since im doing more cardio and endurance not so much strength I guess I can be on the lower end of that ??

i think i should note he said FAT FREE MASS. Not LEAN BODY MASS. Lean body mass is the mass of your muscles. Fat free mass is EVERYTHING except fat, which includes bones, organs, lean mass, etc.

To sum up, If you exercise hard, your body requires protein. You come to want to consume protein for Hypertrophy.

I like the idea of calculating protein intake to target body weight. That makes so much sense whether you’re trying to gain or lose weight.
Thanks!
