Am I moronic for getting half my protein intake from protein powder? I need ~240g of protein so I have been getting around 120 from food and 120 from 5-6 scoops of protein powder

>I need 240g of protein
Unless you're like 7'2" I guarantee that's too much protein. 1-1.1g per pound or 2.2-2.4g per kilo of lean body mass is the goal to shoot for to maximize gains.
Im not 7’2 im just 330 pounds
If you had 240 pounds of lean body mass you'd look like a professional sumo wrestler being 330 pounds. You most certainly have less than that. Again, you don't need that much protein
How do I know how much lean body mass I have
You don't.
So then how the frick am I supposed to calculate protein consumption with a figure I dont know??
Use this as a general guide for what different percentages look like
WTF?!!
I have the chest of 30-35
The gut of 24-26
the arms of 10%
the shoulders of 11-12%
Unfortunate bodyfat distribution
280lbs of fat
BEEFCAKE!!
I like protein powder for when I am doing high intensity workouts. Meat and other protein sources the rest of the time. Less likely to vomit or have diarrhea when having tea blended up with frozen fruits and protein powder.
Yes that makes you moronet.
2 scoops a day is how to do it.
Unless you are doing 8h arm day /s
To the other question. Download cronometer and put in your stats and goal. You will se fat% protein% carb% kcal you'll need, and other great stuff.
Thanks bro
>I need ~240g of protein
No you dont
Op is literally moronic
you don't need 240g, lardass
switch to lean body mass over 200 lbs
a couple scoops a day plus actual food should get you there
Thanks morons, It seems I need about 170g of protein in actuality, I’m gonna look better than all of you Black folk
