    How much protein do you truly need? Whether it's weight loss, weight gain, or just staying healthy, protein is the core of a balanced diet. Of course, the debate about the optimal protein is ongoing. Studies, however, have come close to a consensus based on certain goals. Come find out what that might mean for you and your protein macro!

    If you've seen my other videos, you'll notice that the recommendations here differ from what I've said in the past. After doing more research on the matter, I believe that these recommendations are much more accurate than my older videos. Keep in mind, though, that you can still see positive effects from my old recommendations but these, IMO, are more optimal. If you have any questions or criticism, feel free to leave it here! Thanks

    I think carbs are underrated by people who lift. Without plenty of carbs I don't feel like I can train as hard, even if I make up the calories with protein and fat. But people tend to be scared of carbs thinking their abs will instantly disappear or something. But maybe that's just because I have an endurance sport background

    I am the human experiment. So I've started training. 151 @ 14.5% body fat. Goal is a steady bulk of 1 pound a week. 28 days later I'm very pleased to say I'm 155 @ 14.9% meaning 70% of my gains are muscle (2.8 muscle / 1.2 fat). I'd be happy with 50% but obviously the more the merrier. This means my body's protein synthesis for muscle is about 45 grams daily. I spread protein out efficiently to limit excreting. Mean average of my protein bioavailability is around 70%. I ingest around 100 grams daily leaving around 70 grams to be utilised. Now obviously all that 70 grams isn't going to be muscle. Some will be used for body substances such as hormones etc.

      also 1g per lb is overkill when cutting based on studies ive read. .6-.8 is plenty to preserve muscle mass when cutting, the reason you dont want to overkill on protein is because it would take over your diet and you would get sick of taking that much protein in everyday

    Hey, I'm going through a cutting stage at the moment (preparing for holiday). I've always thought that as you are cutting in a caloric deficit, you can only try to maintain strength - it should never increase. However, my 1Rm has increased in bench from 110kg-115kg and likewise in most lifts (Except for deadlift which remains at 200kg). Somebody at the gym told me this is due to increased protein intake, regardless of the calorie cut. Is this bro science, if not how can i be gaining strength?

    For gains, I follow what I read in Arnold Schwarzenegger bodybuilding book. General rule of thumb is +10 grams of protein more than your body weight. if you weigh 145 lbs consume 155 grams of protein. Went from 135 lbs to 172 lbs in about a year and a half. Took me another year to get to 187 but then I dropped down back to the 170 lb range because of a knee injury. Now it's back to work. Trying to get to 190 lbs. Btw I'm 5' 7''.

    • @PetritLush
      @PetritLush 7 ปีที่แล้ว +32

      Actually "overtraining" is meant as the "overtraining syndrome" which basically means "not enough rest". It's not that you train too much, it's that you don't let your muscles rest enough. There are a lot of signs that you are overtraining: Washed-out feeling, tired, drained, lack of energyMild leg soreness, general aches, and painsPain in muscles and jointsSudden drop in performanceInsomniaHeadachesDecreased immunity (increased number of colds, and sore throat)Decrease in training capacity / intensityMoodiness and irritability
      but it's not that difficult to notice that you are not letting your muscle rest enough. You body will just tell you "stop training so fcking much, this exercise feels shitty, just let me sleep dammit".
      Big muscles can be overtrained more easily and need more rest, smaller muscles like biceps can be trained multiple times a week. If you train your bigger muscles once or twice a week and you eat your protein and carbs, then you should be fine.

    • @averagewheyenjoyer

      Johnny Too much. Get 80g of protein daily and that will be more than enough! If you actually like eating protein do it. But if you're like me and like eating carbs and fats but not protein than you can stick to that lower end while making optimal gains. Just stay in the 80-100g /day range and you'll be fine

    • @RockJohnGR
      @RockJohnGR 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the reply man! The thing is that the video said 1.2 to 2.3 grams per kilo, so is eating closer to higher end of the spectrum bad for me or is it just a "waste of protein"? cause as I said all of my proteins come from the food a eat and i meet my BMR just fine. so should I reduce or not?

      @Johnny, so I think it depends on your goal. If you want to bulk, or to cut.If you want to bulk, then you should also focus on your carbs, on the other hand, if you want to cut, then I think around under 2.5g/ kilos would be fine. As the video says, over 2.5g/ kilos per body weight may not benefit. Again, as the video says, if you don't have any existing kidney problems, a healthy individual can sustain the consuming amount up to 4.5g/kg (but don't, cause being over 2.5g/kg does not benefit)

    i'm 63kg and workout, planning to eat about 2g of protein per kilo. so does eating 100g of beef steak is enough for me everyday?

      derppy lololol no it's not: in 100g of beef there's just 26g of protein. See Wikipedia entry for beef
