So if you're looking to gain muscle and you didn't gather this earlier from reading this course I'm
going to go ahead and give you a personal recommendation too.
How much protein that I would recommend that you take while working on building muscle and then how
much I usually do.
So on any of my lifting days they're going to be high protein days.
What I found out from tracking my macronutrients on my fitness pal and lose it is that all my lifting
days I typically eat a time and a half my body weight in grams.
So think about that in grams from our protein intake.
So when I started gaining mass Let's say I was 160 pounds and so if you were going for one gram per
pound of body weight you'd be eating 160 grams of protein.
So if you're working on gaining muscle I would recommend anywhere between a time and a quarter which
would be about 200 grams to a time and a half would be about 240 grams if you're 160 pound person so
you can kind of break down those formulas for yourself and how that applies to your weight.
Now keep in mind you want to cycle your macronutrients so that your body can keep using those proteins
efficiently and utilizing all of those proteins that build muscle mass on the days you aren't lifting
you can down shift your the amount of protein that you're having in that day and then upshift the amount
of protein that you having on your work.
So there are some personal recommendations that I have for as much protein as you should eat when you're
working on gaining muscle mass and even had a cycle that in on your lifting days and on lifting days.
