How much protein do you need? This is a constant topic which is raised in the gym. • If you want to lose fat, protein is your friend. Shoot for at least 1.6 g/kg a day of protein. Make sure your total calories and proportion of carbs is ideal for your physical activity and unique genes. • If you want to put on muscle, protein is king. Shoot for at least 1.6 g/kg of protein a day and be sure to spread your intake out over the course of the day. Consuming 20 to 30 grams of protein at once is all you need to stimulate protein synthesis, but that doesn’t mean you can’t eat more if you want to. There’s just no muscle building advantage.
