What is going on guys? Welcome back to another episode of the Eric Roberts Fitness Podcast. I hope you are having a great day

thus far. In this podcast we got another pretty much ultimate guide and this one

is going to be knowing exactly everything you need to know about protein, how much protein you should have,

when you should have protein, how much should come from supplements, how much can you absorb at once,

is it different for men, women, younger, older, plant-based?

I'm gonna try to cover everything as much as I can

in this podcast today.

So let's go ahead and dive right into it. So first and foremost, let's talk about how much protein

you should be having per day, because there's some controversy

around this, and you've probably heard before,

oh, you need to eat one gram of protein per pound of body weight and I know some of you guys are like I have to eat 200

250 grams of protein per day

The answer is no you do not have to eat that much protein per day. It somewhat depends on your goal.

Let's go ahead and dive into what basically the science tells us about how much protein you should be eating per day.

Because again, you hear a lot of people chatting

shit on the internet, but what is actually science tells us?

So science tells us.

7 grams of protein per pound of body weight is roughly around where you want to be at.

So let's say for example if you weigh 175 pounds you would want to try to get around 130 grams of protein per day.

Now, that is if you are somebody who you don't necessarily have a lot of body weight or body fat that you want to lose.

Let's say maybe you're skinny fat or maybe you're just like, you know, something,

maybe you're trying to build muscle solely and not lose fat, that would be the recommended for that.
