    newbie protein question

    @showtime2507 Stronger by Science has an episode on this. Yes, 2 grams per kg will maximize, but the magnitude of benefit from getting that much vs 1.3 grams per kg is highly exaggerated, and a bastardization of the field of statistics and scientific research.

    Mike Mentzer's heavy duty program and callisthenics

    @life4h1m A set with 1 or 2 reps in reserve is a hard set! The irony is that the people who say, "Leaving one repetition in the tank isn't training hard." probably don't train hard. If there is an exercise that you can do 10 reps, and you do 10, the 9th repetition should not feel easy! There...

    @kab00m An average sized male who is not super lean or fat is 77kg. 0.8 *77 = 62 grams of protein. If that average sized male eats 2400 calories, then 10 percent of calories from protein is 60 grams. It seems nobody debating protein can do basic math. Protein bros want to round up 1.6 grams...
