Might as well throw this out there, as it's a question that I've personally gotten and heard asked about a million times...."How much protein do I need to build muscle?" I have read some pretty ridiculous recommendations ranging anywhere from 50-75 grams for a 200 lb. weight lifter per day, to a whopping 300 grams per day for the same size person....yikes! Here's the simple answer and it has wor...ked like a charm for me each time I go through my muscle building cycle: Aim to consume 1 gram of protein per 1 pound of bodyweight each day. Simple enuff right!?! So guess what? If you're 200lbs. you'll shoot for 200 grams of protein per day. Adding a quality whey protein powder to your daily diet can go a long way in helping you get in the adequate amount of protein that you need to build muscle and recover from those strenuous workouts you do (you better be working hard)!
