How much protein can the body absorb?
Right now, I'm trying to cut some fat, while still getting stronger. So far what I've been doing is just eating Protein, Fruits, and Vegetables All Day. It's been working really well so far, but I was wondering how much protein is too much in a shake.
What I usually do is take 60g of ON Pro-Complex every 5 hours, or if I eat anything that has protein in it, I'll take 30g of the Pro-Complex every 5 hours. My older Bro told me that it's a rule of thumb with the whole "5 Hours" thing but idk if I should be taking more.. or less.
I'm 16 years old

I lift Mon, Tues, Wed, Fri from 3-5pm
Starting August 15th, I'm going to have football practice from 9am-9pm (3-a days) and I wanna know how much protein to take during that period of intense cardio.
