with the ectomorphs i help out, we go with 2.5 grams to start.

I wouldn't suggest crankin' up the protein that high, to start. One to one and a half grams per pound should be plenty. As far as carbs go, how many calories do you need and what is your present goal? 2.5 to 3g/lb might be a good starting point if you're very lean and consider yourself to have trouble gaining muscular weight. It will also depend on your glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity and activity levels, among other factors.

Timbo, were you referring to my post?

i was talking about carbs.

Massive Mutha: Nope, my friend, I was actually solidifying your recommendation of carbs as a starting point. The protein reference was alluding back to the original poster and the subsequent title of the thread.
