For anyone reading this, and easy way to calculate your protein requirements per meal is to take your body weight and divide it by 6. That will give you the minimum amount per meal.
If you use kilos divide your weight by 2.7.
If you weigh more than 250 pounds, use 250 as the weight in your calculation.

oh my gosh..
I've been following the old PP book and calculated my LBM and protein requirements through that - and came out on the 27g a meal and with this new method I'm at the 40g a meal requirement!
That's a HUGE difference. I did think the 27 was a little low and so have been aiming for a total of 100 day/33 a meal.. I don't know if I can chock much more in, I'm stuffed as it is. |
