      I posted the math in another comment that is being drown out by fart jokes... most average people would be doing well to put on 5-10 pounds of lean muscles a year, so the 1.6g/kg figure lines up with that. Whatever your total daily figure is, the body only converts about 20% off it to muscle, the rest goes towards maintenance and metabolism. So to gain 5 pounds of lean muscle in a year (which is pretty normal for a lot of people) you are really only accumulating an average of 6g of protein a day.

    I ended up going to a medical nutritionist, (a medical doctor with a specialization in obesity) and he was at this same equation of .71g/pound of total body weight. Or as an easy rule of thumb he said 1 gram per pound of lean body weight, IE: remove your fat. Which works out to the same thing or a bit more if you're in shape.

    I’m a cancer survivor, just tested in remission a few months ago. My oncology nutritionist told me early on that during treatment in order to maximize my strength through chemotherapy I needed to be eating 25 to 35 g of protein Ideally every three hours. I think that was a range for most people, so with my gender and size I’m guessing 25 would be more appropriate. It did take some planning.

      Your oncology nutritionist told you to eat huge amounts of protein for strength, but said nothing about resistance training? Keep eating protein every three hours? Is he trying to keep your mTOR constantly elevated? Maybe you should get a second opinion. Sounds like you are taking a lot of risk and for what benefit? Muscle strength? You can keep track of your muscle mass and strength on a daily basis. Get to the gym and lift. You can NOT not keep track of the progression of your cancer this easily if it comes out of remission.
      Also, your nutritionist said to do this during chemo treatment, which might be fine. However, you are now in remission. Why do you believe this will help you? You might be doing the exact opposite of what you should do. Do you have any research studies that show high protein diets are good for keeping cancer in remission?
      I have a friend that got cancer at age 78. He got to the gym as a newbie when he was diagnosed. He will be 87 this May. He is still competing in powerlifting. He competed last April in the 4th Ave Gym Powerlifting Classic in Yuma, AZ (if you want to see him lift in a video, google _instagram uspaarizona 85_ ).

    After lifting for the better part of my life, starting as a teen and now in my 40's, I have found out the basics always work and not to complicate things too much. If your bodyfat is too high, then eat less calories than you burn until you are lean enough. You probably don't need to track calories if you can consistently be in a state of mild hunger. If you got fat it's because you've been eating too much food. If you aren't a vegan, you will have an easy time meeting your protein needs unless you are dieting. If you're eating maintenance or higher, then you are probably getting in enough protein. More than anything, just train hard and consistently, avoid drinking in excesses and get a good nights sleep. Trust the mirror more than the scale. If you have a serious goal, have someone take pictures of you. The mirror lies too. When you have to stare at your love handles in a photo, you cannot twist yourself in a way that helps you avoid looking at them.

      While I think this is good advice in general, for some of us counting calories and tracking macros really is necessary. I'm back to doing a cut after a year of careless eating and I was shocked by how small my portions had to be to eat at a deficit.

      i think tracking your weight per week helps in that case and checking your strength in the gym. if someone hates the idea of tracking, all they need to do is eat the same food and track that for one time, then check the weight per week if it goes down or up approx 0.25 to 0.5 kg difference per week should be fine . even if u do this way u will see progress@@Cenyon

    Honestly, I always had the intuition that 1 gram per pound of body weight requirement was insanely high. I eat WAY less than that and see excellent results at the age of 42 (obviously naturally). Plus, with my appetite, even hitting 50 grams is hard for me through regular food intake without supplementing with protein powders (which I also consider kind of unnatural).
    I also do not like to add food or extra protein, which in my case comes mostly from animal sources, just to look a certain way. That's a bit iffy in terms of my personal ethics! So, I am happy to see that this excellent research confirms my suspicion and removes the unnecessary pressure to add more protein to my diet.

    Can you please make a deep dive video on the amino acid leucine please, because of ethical reasons, I want, must and have to eat as little animal protein as possible, but as much as necessary of high-quality animal protein in the form of lean poultry, lean beef and eggs to build muscle. In a study I read that regardless of body weight, a minimum of 20g of protein per meal, regardless of bodyweight and age, is needed to build muscle. In another study I read and like you said, there must be at least 2-3g leucine per meal to build muscle. These two studies contradict each other because 20g of protein does not contain 2g of leucine. For example, 100g raw weight chicken breast has 23g protein but only 1.8g leucine. My question is whether, as a natural average lifter without TRT and without PED´s, are 20g of protein from, for example, 100g of chicken/lean beef or 3 whole eggs per meal enough Protein to build quality muscle even though there are not 2g of leucine per meal? Provided at the end of the day 1.6-2g of protein per kilogram of body weight is achieved and spread over 4-6 meals!? I have often read and heard that naturals in particular have to eat more protein to build muscle than guys who are on trt or on peds because naturals do not have consistently elevated muscle protein synthesis!? Don´t get me wrong here, I don´t want to split hairs and focus on every little detail but this is something I´m a) just interested in and b) I´m not the guy who just want to „eat more“ protein or fit my protein requirement into 3 large meals because in general I don´t really like protein foods and do better with more carbs and fats and a higher meal frequency and I want to avoid
