>most people consume enough protein already
>you should be consuming 1g of protein per 1 pound of body weight
Holy fucking shit. I'm 160. I looked at what I normally eat and i'm lucky if I get 50g daily.
How/what do you eat to get 160g of protein?
It seems like you would have to eat an insane amount of food.

That is a bit of a exaggeration.
Get at least 120.
Have like 2-3 shakes of whey.
Some chicken or steak for dinner and beans for lunch.
That will get you around 160 depending on portion sizes
The sticky is so outdated and full of broscience and no one even questions it.You need like 0.8 or even 0.7g of protein per pound actually.Maybe a bit more when cutting
>Some chicken or steak for dinner and beans for lunch.
That is exactly what I eat though.
>breakfast
>breakfast burrito 13g
>lunch
>can of great northern beans and rice 10~g
>dinner
>chicken/steak with rice/pasta 20~g
So I take it protein shakes are mandatory.
What's up with whey? What's wrong with just normal (not the special blend stuff) protein powder?

"The Institute of Medicine's protein RDAs are calculated using 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. This means an adult who weighs 68 kilograms needs at least 54 grams of protein each day."

>mfw lately had 300g protein, not even on purpose
Step up yo game bruv
Eat meat, get some whey, cheat with some McD's during bulks and you're fine
>kilogram

This is an American Japanese image board.
Whats that in pounds?
> the american education system at work
1kg = 2.2pounds
so just multiply or divide as necessary
only 40% of the boards users are american but you fatfucks still want special treatment
