Sir My bodey weight is 58kilo and height is 5.3 inch tall,Now how much protein should i take in a day.....plz reply
I normally hear that you mist consume 1g of protein per pound of body weight but others also say 1g of protein per kg of body weight which seems more realistic and attainable. So idk which is correct… per pound or kg??
@@marco7838 Why don't you listen to the video before asking stupid questions?

This is what I’m confused about, let’s say I’m 108Kg and I need 1.6 X that, what if I lose weight every week. Do I have to change it every week ?
I was worried going into this video that the advices would be a bit wonky because usually big brands offer really random advices but this video is actually really great for anyone interested in seriously getting into bodybuilding or explaining to friends and family why you are eating every 3 hours.
I normally hear that you mist consume 1g of protein per pound of body weight but others also say 1g of protein per kg of body weight which seems more realistic and attainable. So idk which is correct… per pound or kg??
@@marco7838 kg is accurate but if it's lb it's 0.7g per lb or 1.6g per kg
@@Francofit oh okay so I weight 70kg so 112g of protein is enough to build muscle and gain weight?
@@marco7838 112g is the perfect amount to build muscle at your body weight👍
@@marco7838 The 1 gram per pound of body weight is supposed to be 1 gram per pound of lean body weight. Very few people have single digit body fat percentages. It should be .7 to 2 grams per kilogram of weight with 1.5 being the optimum for building muscle. There isn't much evidence that massive protein intake past that makes any difference.
That Irish accent makes everything he says peachy
Thank you... I've been working on it for years haha
I dont know what peachy is but yes
Still not ginger
@@rkirwan1 I normally hear that you mist consume 1g of protein per pound of body weight but others also say 1g of protein per kg of body weight which seems more realistic and attainable. So idk which is correct… per pound or kg??
@@marco7838 It depends on goals. I never use pounds just because I've used metric all my life. I think 1.2g/kg of body weight per day, split over 3 meals is a good baseline level for people who want to look after their muscle mass as they get older. There is definitely a case to be made for more protein (up to 2.4g/kg) if people really want to try and maximise muscle growth
Its actually incredibly refreshing to have a proper and informed breakdown on this matter, great work and amazing video.
I haven't found any videos in the internet which is so much knowledgable about protein...hats off
having routine and being consistent is a winning path
This was the most research-based information on protein synthesis and recommendation. Absolutely loved this! :)
Such an easy and straight forward method and expelnation. Thanks for making this confusing new enviroment for us beginners, way easier to understand
Addressing the myths was actually super helpful. Thanks for slipping that in.
Richie, this video was fantastic to understand how much protein we should take if we want to build muscle! Thanks 🤩
by far the most knowledgeable video on this subject - appreciated
I appreciate your professional advice delivered in a clear and concise fashion.
Sage advice. In this seven minute video you get thoughtful - and easily understood - advice about how much protein, and how often. Not sure most bodybuilders and athletes will need MORE information than this. Well done!
Clear and easy to follow no BS information without the sales pitch - perfect!
Best educational videos on working out and nutrition ive ever seen, keep up the great work!
Awesome! Thank you!
I can't believe this single video helped me more than hours of looking in the internet
Love hearing an Irishman/Scot explain protein breakdown effectively and to the point. Had a bit of a fancy tone to it, appreciate it.
Excellent fact and presentation. Thank you!
I really appreciate that you try to always address the common myths. Keep it up 👍🏼
good video my man, very easy to understand, maths is simple and now i know exactly how much protein i need. cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 my man 👍🏻
LOVE IT ,WELL EXPLAINED 💪👍👍👍👍👍That deserve a 5 star 💪
Very insightful and easy to follow. Thank you! I’m small and I didn’t want to go for protein shakes. I do track the macros of my food, though, so this is very useful.
Same here. Being smaller makes it fairly easy to hit protein goals without shakes since we don’t need a crazy high amount of protein! I prefer to get as much as I can from just food and use shakes for days that I’m really struggling.
@@margaretrangel7223 but it’s hard to eat for example 108 protein per day for me
The most best explanation so far
Thanks for this… great video!!!
Great video - keep them coming
Cool, i've tried looking up if I should eat to my goal weight or current weight to no success, helped clear up a lot of stuff.
Thank you so much very well explain 👍
Great video , and very clear explanation
Thank you bro for dis u really help me to understanding
Very appreciated video, thank you :)
You’re the best lol! Thanks for making this a lot less complicated 😅😊❤
Great Insights.. This was my first video on this channel.. Thank you. 👍🙏
YOU CLEARED ALL THE CONFUSION
4:08 My pilates/barre instructor may have finally gotten me to take my fitness & health seriously. But even she can't stop me from giggling at the use of the phrase refractory period for muscle growth. I'm a man damn it! DON'T YOU DARE EXPLAIN THAT TERM TO ME! I've known what those were since I was a teenager! 😂❤
Excellent video! Thanks for all your informative, straightforward and overall helpful videos. 👍
Top-notch quality, short and on point videos and on top of that it's evidence-based!
It would be fantastic if you guys leave the link to the researches mentioned in the description.
Amazing. Thank you!
great diet plan, just got mine

@@marco7838 did you even watch the video?!?!?!?!
@@smezey huh
Thank you, I just subbed.
Best video yet!
only in this video did i learn about calculating your protein intake that way!!!!
Hi thanks so much this has made it very clear for what I need to have and what to do as I'm starting out and I'm quite a stick but with the work I do there is a lot of lifting and running around and pushing heavy objects around and after 6 months of working there can start to see a bit of gain 😅so wanted to maximise the gains with having protein shakes or bars at work and on my days off to work out now just got to know what the differentness between the protein shakes are and the bars too
If you want the best results with minimal side effects take protein the normal way. Food is your best bet. Protein shakes and bars are there only if you cant consume what you need.
Very helpful video thanks
For an endurance athlete, what would be your advice regarding creatine and whey protein consumption for muscle recovery
Very useful video thank you from Egypt ❤
Thank you Mr. McGregor.
Awesome explanation!
This was really helpful tysm
This really help me alot ,ty
Hallo! 😄 I have watched 2 of your videos about MPS and you have mentioned, that when we eat more protein than necessary, it won't stimulate MPS (...any further?). I am not sure, how to understand this. For example, if i eat 30 g per meal, it will be stimulated, in the case i only need 30 g. But for example, if i eat 50 g, does it mean that it won't stimulate MPS any further, or does it mean, that it won't stimulate MPS at all, cause i ate more protein than necessary? Thank you for the professional videos! 😃
Great video!
So how many scoops of EVL Whey protein should I ingest per meal per day? My BMI is 88.3
Love these videos 👍🏻
That's great to hear!
How can 112 can sound low wtf, my chicken is only 24g of prot/100g that means i have to eat half kg of chicken per day, and actually no, because i m 82 and not 70 so 550g of chicken per day, that's insanely huge
Had my first Whey shake today and wow it’s so much tastier then I thought. Especially after a hard work out.💪
amazing insight!
Goes to show that the average person doesnt need a protein supplement. Eat the right amount of Fats/carbs and meats the protein usually comes way above the necessary intake. My fitness pal taught me this real quick.
Wow amazing video. The information was delivered really well
Arent you the guy from the video....
@@haydencantu7843 no, the guy from the video is Richie Kirwan
I enjoy you work and do an excellent job. My story is different. I used to eat 4-5 times in a day. Several years ago i went to a program of eating twice a day in a four hour window. Results; more muscle growth (after years the same) and more energy and better BMI.
Are you still following the eating twice a day in a 4 hour window? At that times do you eat your meals, what macros per meal and what do you eat in those 2 meals?Also, how much water and salt per day?
Just ordered my first myprotein order 💪🏽
Hi, does adding your Inulin supplement to a Whey Protein Shake hinder the absorption of one of your Whey Proteins.
great diet plan, just got mine
Very insightful, thank you.
Great video 👍💪
you might want to add standard weights and measures too
I don’t get the protein intake recommendation. Can someone interpret it for someone who weighs 57kg, my target weight is 65-70kg. I’m 5’7. Thank you
If I take 100 grams in the morning (4 scoop isopure) then another 100 grams at night. Would that work
For the shake I use 1-2 cups of spinach ice almond milk and the protein
I normally walk around on stilts so do I add the extra height to my calculations?
Does it matter if i drink a lot of protien instead of eating??
Hey i need a help. My protein powder drum says to take 3 scoops a day(1 serving) but everyone in my gym takes 1 scoops what should i do? Im confused im mew haha. The company is enervit
hi sir... Thank you for the very good explanation. But I have a small question, is the number 25 a standard formula? And where does that number come from?
Outstanding! Been working my ring off at the gym not putting on enough muscle for my effort and didn’t realise I wasn’t eating enough protein or in the right way…
So im 95kg and 0.4 times that is 38 grams of protein per meal. Doesn't that mean alot of the protein i eat wouldn't be used for muscle growth? Should i just eat more meals?
I weigh 100kg and am training hard to build better body (muscular), so you're saying I need around 240g of protein a day, every day. As lean chicken breast has about 25% protein, I need for example to eat roughly 1kg of cooked lean chicken breast every day in 6 meals, right?
I’m 64kg, 141pounds and my weight goal by the end of the year is 80kg how much protein, calories and carbohydrates should I have each day
Can you talk about what foods are best for muscel growth
if my result of the formula of lean body weight is the same of my bodyweight what does it mean? that means that this bodyweight is ideal?
If you want to maintain your current muscle mass while continuing your usual gym routine, then what would the protein intake be?
so why did he mention the lean weight when he wants to talk about body weight to get the protien amount i got confused should i multiply 0.4 by my body weight or lean weight?
This is what I’m confused about, let’s say I’m 108Kg and I need 1.6 X that, what if I lose weight every week. Do I have to change it every week ?
Yeah it’s a weird one because when I went to the gym and measured up I have a high muscle percentage but also high fat too so I’m trying to cut whilst maintaining gains
Great video
gonna try, thank you ?
Thanks man
Can someone explain how i calculate my protein he lost me at the measuring protein bit? 😭
such an awesome guy
Thank you 😊👍
Good information bro
can u do a review about Beef protein vs whey?
So what would need to change once we hit that healthy weight goal of 70kg? So for example lets say im currently 90kg and my height is 1.7m like your example ive been eating 112g of protien a day lost a load of weight and have now got to 70kg what would you change then?
Thanks for the video 👌
So this means that we ll always have the same protein requirement because of our inchangeable height ? I mean 2 persons with the same height but lean body weight different obviously they shoud not have the same required protein intake for building/maintaining muscle mass
What if I like too just eat 2 meals a day when I eat more than that I start binge eating
very good man
I worked out for years thinking I was a hard gainer, but the reallity is I just had a bad. I then tried the Agoge diet, and started seeing much faster and better results.
I used Agoge too, it's a great meal plan, takes out all the boring out of dieting
The most important part to losing weight is diet of course, the hardest part is staying consistent
What's the conversion for pounds
Liked n Subscribed !
Thaaaaanks a lot
How about if I only want to get leaner and lose fat?
What about carbs and fats intake???
Will more protein help with recovery?
Wait if you eat more and dont see any more result then how do you get bigger
should we sleep with a BCAA IV drip to trigger MDS during sleep lol
discipline is key
