How much protein should i be taking in, in a day

[The Chop]

ive heard so many different things from other people... I wanna know how much protein powder i should take in in a day. Do i take a certain amount of powder and count my daily intake of protein through my meals too, or just worry about powder intake????

Yes count all protien consumed meals shakes snacks remember shakes are a supplement not the source of your intake, post i'n the diet forum very knowledgeable bros there

what are your goals, what are you trying to accomplish ?

You want to get as much of your protien from food as possible. If you have to supplement a shake I would make it immediately after training or casien before bed.

I didn't know that.

I'm going to start using egg white protein would they have the same effect as whey and casein on the water absorption.

hmm actually i dont know exactly....i am not that deep into these protein supplement...i find them garbage....i judge anything from the response of my body.....and raw eggs...they are one of the most anabolic type of food...they build lean muscle...unlike meat who makes you hold little water and blurred line a bit......and i have never had tried egg protein powder....but i think they can be good..anything made of eggs should be good.. ..how good when compared to whey and casein ?? dont know exactly man..i am not expert in it because i have dismissed them long time ago..some are more garbage some are less garbage lol
