    So I did a quick number crunch on this: To get to about 75kg of protein per day, let’s say you only eat lean turkey and drink protein shakes, you’d need 200kg of turkey and 200L of protein shake.

    You could probably make this intake more efficient, but however it goes in, I don’t think my body would like me eating 370,000 calories per day.

    Eating 76 kilograms of protein seems slightly excessive, would change my body drastically no doubt. /s

      They might be referencing the rough math for daily protein consumption. It works out to about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight for men and half a gram per pound for women.

      Or they could be a bat

          This is a pretty common calculation for people who track protien intake in the US, since most people weigh themselves in pounds, and most nutritional information is provided in grams.

          On US nutritional labels fats, carbs, and proteins are listed in grams, but we generally measure everything in pounds.

          When calculating your macro nutrition for weight gain the general recommendation comes out to about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. This is just a coincidence, but makes finding out how much protein you need to gain muscle mass pretty easy if you know how much you weigh and given that all of our labels have that info in grams.

          Because my gram always makes me gain the pounds with the food she cooks :)

        A gram per pound is overshooting it quite a bit unless you’re a vegan not minding your protein quality intake. The maximum effective protein intake is ~1.6g/kg (0.72g/lbs), more than that will just go to “waste” (energy/energy storage). If you’re steroids the limit is higher, but there’s currently no exact number on it.

    Yes, if you eat your body weight every day, you will be dead. That’s a drastic change to your body.

    I think he meant to say 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. I see this referenced a bit. Still funny to imagine eating that much though.

      Cattle mutilations attributed to UFOs are actually just this guy trying to get his protein

      That's the amount you need so protein intake doesn't limit your muscle growth

      when you’re taking steroids

        I already have the bald part so the rest seems like a general improvement.

    Your body will change DRASTICALLY.
