Help me out guys ...
I think I forgot the math. I have leaned out a lot but I feel and see that I'm losing mass.
The math I'm using is from when I used to lift before .... i started again and I'm moving heavy weights for 6 to 10 reps.
Instead of getting bigger Im losing and I know is my diet. Im keeping it at 2k calories a days but my macros vary way to much.
The only think I was concentrating was getting .8g of protein per kg of body weight.
Example 210lbs ÷ 2.2 = 96.36 kg x .08g = 77.09g of protein.
Should I be consuming more protein or is that sufficient for building muscle? I really don't want to change the types of foods to accommodate more protein but if I have to I have to.
keko jones 0.8g per 1kg is almost paltry papa.
I would more than double protein intake, more like 0.8g per 1lb.
Im trying to lean out and lose weight and not lose muscle mass.
You're tryna build muscle while losing only fat on a cutting diet?
Dudes in here tryna "build muscle" on 77grams of protein a day and only 2000 calories - as full-grown men - and wondering why they're losing mass?
