How many grams protein per lb weight?

[violinlifter]

What do you think is the amount of protein one should take in for maximum gains?

A lot of people say 1g/lb. is the standard, but a lot of people also say that they have hit a plateau until they upped that figure.

I'd say anywhere from 1.5-2 .

[afi_rule]

most nutrition experts recommend 1.4g/kg if u work out less than 3 times a week and 1.8g/kg if more, i do 1g/lbs and that works so im not gonna change it,

[BigZeke]

I use 1.5-2.0g/lb

[JnJ23]

ya 2g/lb best way to go, sometimes more

[RACKITUP]

and im 200ibs, and growing

[BIGnaturalBROCK]

1.2g per pound of lbm.

[Aftershock]

umm anywhere from 1-2 grams 4 every lb.

[SUPERM4N]

Anything over 1 will suffice.

Anywhere between 1 and 2. I strive for the most I can get, but to actually dedicate myself to a routine in which I count each and every last gram of protein just won't happen.

I have five to six meals a day, so I try to consume about 20 grams of protein per meal, and then I have a 45 gram protein shake post-work out. I weigh 132 lbs. Then again, maybe that's why I'm not gaining weight as quickly as I'd like. Heheheh.
