![]() Page 174,table 2, says 176lb male dieting strength training(me) should be consuming 264g of protein..is that right or did I miss the part where it says that table is for lbm?

![]() The book is based on bodyweight since that is what all the studies look at. And that is at the absolute high end of the recommendations.

![]() Even the low end would be 246g according to the table, thats alot higher than the recommendations from RFL which I would think shouldn't be considering how low the calories are on a psmf...seems a little confusing and now I'm not sure what my amount should be. What do you think?

![]() for me this isn't far from 400g of protein at 1.25g per lb of body weight. That's expensive and quite difficult to eat in one day. Hard life being a big guy

![]() That's the key really, isn't it... Make sure to get plenty of protein in when dieting, and that's probably good enough - to be in some ballpark. Worrying about hitting some precise magic number where your muscles disappear if you miss it even once? That's a path to nowhere good.
