I think I saw one study that was like up to 1.8 saw benefit as well.

But –

When do you get to the point of where practically now because you're consuming more protein, you're consuming less carbohydrates and fats, which are fueling your exercise.

And so does performance start to drop off because of that?

And so that's where that segue has to happen of, OK, we can keep packing more protein in here and even for resistance training purposes.

people, right?

Okay.

I might have some bodybuilders who say, well, you know, 1% difference is the difference between winning the Olympia and finishing in last place.

So I'm going to eat a thousand grams of protein, but I'm pulling out like a, a fake example that doesn't exist.

But what I would say is, well, yeah.

Maybe you're getting a little bit more muscle protein synthesis, but your training is probably going to suck, right?

Because you're not getting in carbohydrates, fats.

You probably feel like crap.

And so guess what?

Training is the bigger lever.

So you're better off taking some of that protein, allotting it towards carbohydrates and fats so that you actually feel fueled and can train hard versus just continuing to try to pump more protein in.

So for me, I consume – so I'm probably about –

I'm 94, 95 kilos.

I consume like 230, 240 grams of protein per day.

So I'm like probably like two and a half grams around there, two and a half grams per kilo of body weight.
