1.5X your body weight.
if a 150 lb man were to want to gain muscle, he wud eat 5,000 calories a day, and 200 grams of protein a day. along with atleast 1 fruit a day, and minimum of 8 1/2 hours sleep.
About 72 grams of protein per day.
You can find more information on healthy muscle building diets by reading health magazines and websites. I suggest a good diet to build muscle is not so much protein from animals but protein from nuts and whey. Fruit also helps repair muscles quicker after a long hard work out.
No. Muscle is built by appropriate exercise, not by what you eat. A healthy well-balanced diet is all that is necessary. Your body doesn't take protein that you eat and tranform it directly into muscle; the proteins for muscle-building are manufactured by your body from whatever you eat. A bit of extra protein in your diet isn't going to hurt anything, but it isn't likely to help much.
A female looking to effectively build muscle should aim to consume around 1.2 to 2.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day.
Short answer: Yes Long answer: I suppose it depends on the way you look at it. Muscle tissue is technically made pretty much of protein. However, if by make muscle you mean workout and build it, you will need carbohydrates to carry out the exercise, and carbohydrates are needed to make the energy for the process of protein synthesis and muscle building/repair.
NO!
Eat one gram of protein for each pound of lean body mass, this puts you in muscle building mode all day everyday
ENERGY = FAT, CALORIES, AND CARBOHYDRATES. MUSCLE BUILDING = MEAT (PROTEIN) so. pretty much mcdonalds. eating this and working out will give you lots of muscle. but you will gain lots excess fat in the process.
You will lose muscle and get fat.
To gain muscle you MUST workout. If the body is not stressed enough to send the signals to build muscle, it will not matter how much protein you consume. If you are training very hard attaining a certain level of protein in the diet will optimize results but protein by itself will not build muscle.
none. muscle milk is synthetic garbage and all soy protein. use a natural whey protein shake or onesource optimal nutrition for mass.
