I don't understand why there seems to be so much discrepancy on protein. I've heard anywhere from .7 to 1.3g but all I know is my stomach has not agreed with this uptick in protein so far and it's starting to annoy me.

I had problems with whey for a min, I changed it up and went with plant protein and it’s been going good so far

I’d stay at .8 per pound of body weight for a “bulk”. More on a cut actually to combat hunger.

I would also try to get as much as I can from food and limit shakes as much as possible.

With diversity of protein sources too. They aren’t all the same from an amino acid profile perspective

I'm basically 90% vegan (I eat salmon once in a blue moon) and lately I've been using pea, hemp, and peanut butter protein for my smoothies. I cycle in dates, blueberries, apples, whatever fruit I have on hand basically. I think my problem is trying to get 50g in that one smoothie but when I'm at work it's hard to have anything else quick to eat besides the smoothie so I try to do that and a protein bar or 2 for lunch and a solid dinner.

I've definitely noticing i feel more bloated and congested since I've been trying to up my protein so something has to give

Increase the number of meals you're having with quality protein sources.

7:02 am PST. Upper body done. 7/10 workout. Had to cut some sets from the accessory work because, again, there were a gang of people using the machines and I had to wait.

Luckily I do shoulder, arm and abs on Friday so there’s more dedicated accessory work.

Still got in a very good sweat. Even one breh was like

“Damn nikka, I saw you putting in work!”

But this is the Bay Area so I’m not sure if I should be or

Sike nah lol he was with his girl

Yea the protein recommendations are all over the place.

I do two of these Premier protein shakes in a day. One after gym for breakfast and one with my lunch at work. Even still that’s 60g between the two shakes. I try to aim for 170g+ since I’m cutting but it’s been a struggle.

I think I’ll have to start making my own shakes from plant based protein. No way I can consume that much whey without stomach issues.

I try to ensure most of my snacks have some protein in them. Almonds, jerky, sunflower seeds etc

Needed that leg day. They aren’t even heavy but the cardio hill walking and walking lunges just cook my legs.
