Spike asked:


Ok I’m 155 lbs. and athletic. I was told that my daily intake of protein should be around 52 grams. So my question is when your building muscle, do you need to consume more whey protein than your daily recommended dose for maximum results? Or is taking the daily recommended dose which is more protein than I normally consume sufficient for maximum results?

    the amount of protein you are consuming atm is VERY less. If u want to build muscle you need around 1 gram or protein per pound of your body weight. So your weight being 155 lbs u need around 155 grams of protein a day.

    An caloric excess if mass gains is not really appropriate other times of lean bodyweight whether youre lifting weights or not nearly enough protein for the other.
    The blood stream very quickly but is your goal.
    For pre and post workout supplementation but is what you do need even more protein that hits the most part getting about 115 grams per pound of your proteins should come from whole food sources chicken fish lean bodyweight whether youre lifting weights.

    Basically you need at least 80g of protein per day; more if you are training intensively (some is needed just to replace the myosin fibres broken doiwen by the training.).

    You need a good all-round diet rich in protein (meat, fish, eggs, cheese, chicken, nuts, pulses, etc), carbohydrate (pasta, potatoes, rice, etc) vitamins + minerals (green veg, fruit, nuts, liver, tomatoes, beetroot, etc.) and just a little unsaturated fat (plant source eg sunflower oil in cooking, margarine, etc.), + plenty of fluid.

    Muscle is made mainly of the proteins myosin, actin and tropomyosin. Bone has a calcium phosphate backbone with collagen (a protein filler). So you need plenty of milk and cheese to provide calcium and Vitamin D (cholecalciferol).

    This regime will make you put on a lot of muscle, but a little fat, too, because of the calories. Not to worry. You are young. Once you bulk up, you can easily get rid of the fat to gain definition
