How much whey protein do u go thru a month?

[devin45k]

I was wondering how much whey protein that people go thru a month. This month I have noticed I go thru a lot more than I thought. I actually calculated the average out too.

So how much do u go through a month?

[punksurfer024]

about 7-8 pounds.

[coke]

2 to 3 scoops a day.

[Docta J]

I'd say probably about 5-6lbs here.

[bigbridrol]

6-7 pounds about

[athenafootball]

about 5 pounds

[TEmike81]

5-6

[phant0m]

5-6 for me too

[devin45k]

last month I went thru way too much....It was like a minimum of 10 lbs. cuz my eating situation was screwed up!

[faBBy]

1-3 scoops a day. I usually buy a new 5-6lb tub every month and half or so.

[Steak_n_Taters]

3 or 4 pounds

[snu183]

about 5lbs. maybe a lil less or a lil more. i try to more whole meals then shakes. just have shakes twice a day on non work out days and three times during work out days

[jcrue11]

Back when my eating schedule was screwy due to work I would go through about 10lbs in a month, but that got old fast. Nowadays I'm going through about 6-7lbs a month.

[squier]

oh wow, didnt realize til now

about 6lb

crazy....

[cjohnston95]

about 7 lbs eat 6-7 meals a day

[LatissimusDorsi]

6-7 pounds.

[rvngu]

Usually 4 scoops a day, which is 3 pounds I think

I think your math is wrong, unless each of those scoops is only 12.2G protein

[FaceThePain]

10lbs exactly.

I try to get in 450g of protein daily, and with working odd hours, it's hard to do it w/o the whey.

Wow...you're taking in 1.89G per pound of bodyweight perday? crazy.

[House72]

Wow...you're taking in 1.89G per pound of bodyweight perday? crazy.

Why is it crazy? If he is training hard, he could take up to 2 grams per pound of bodyweight. Drink lots of water though..

[FaceThePain]

Right now I'm training on the DoggCrap method, which really seems to work the best, out of everything I've tried.

1.8g per lb isnt too much IMO, some bodybuilders take in twice what I do.

[Xc]

whatever 20-30 scoops is.

[eldawg]

5 pounds total (whey and others)

[dropshot001]

i go through about a bucket of whey a month and about .75 of a 2 lb bucket of casein.

I am not sure he meant "crazy" in a traditional sense.
Maybe he meant it more in the sense like when you are not too interested in a conversation or something and you will say something like : "that's crazy, dude.."

[Benched]

i take 4-6 scoops of ON whey a day. 6 on training days and 4 on rest days. 2 scoops with every shake.....its about 48g of protein per shake.

haha yeah more like that.


In other news, i myself weigh 185 right now so i shoot for 200g protein daily which is about 30-35G per "meal" @ 6 meals per day.

If i were to do 1.89 like Face up there, that would require that i take in 350G daily, which is nearly 60G protein per "meal" @ 6 meals per day. There's no way my body can absorb 60G every 3-4 hours...is there ? haha

it most likely can, especially with use of digestive enzymes.... i intake about 300-350 grams of protein a day and weigh 185 as well.

[nikeair91]

5-6 lbs
