And total daily protein was optimized at 1.6 grams per kilogram of body weight per day or 0.7 grams per pound in both groups.
Progressive resistance training for 12 weeks.
No significant differences between groups in muscle size and strength gain, whether it was a omnivorous protein intake or whether it was a plant-based protein intake.
And we have two studies showing that now.
It's a common thing with the general population, with the lay public.
My protein target is
at least 160 grams a day.
So I just make sure that I have four meals with at least 40 grams of protein per day.
And it's so easy to do.
It's incredibly easy to do because two of my meals per day are just real whole foods.
And then two of my meals per day, two to three, are protein smoothies.
And so it is just so incredibly easy for me to get my protein intake through.
Like two scoops of protein, bam, that's almost 50 grams of protein right there.
So you have two of those a day, I've got more than half my protein
Now, if you were telling me, hey, Alan, I want to place really good in the nationals this year, the NPC nationals, classic physique or classic bodybuilding or just any one of the physique divisions.
I would say, you know, you are not going to want to try to get all your protein in a single meal because what we want to do is we want to maximize the number of micro anabolic events in the course of the day.
We want to maximize the amount of times you maximally stimulate muscle protein synthesis in the course of the day.
And just from a pragmatic standpoint,
you could probably do that at least three or four times.
And if you're able to do that three or four times in the day versus once with that one big banger of a meal, then you might actually over time gain more muscle than you would have.
