basically 0.4g x weight (in KG)
0.4 x (158 / 2.2) = ~30g of whey Isolate and, or, concentrate immediately post-workout.
Have another 30g of protein coming from a food source (eg. tuna) an hr later.

Yeah. In general, your body isn't going to utilize more than ~40g of protein at any given time. The rest of it will get stored.
