@ka33 Yeah that's quite a lot. The RDI for women is just 43g according to the WHO. And even that includes a buffer for all sizes and activity levels as is.
In Protienaholic by Garth Davis MD, he shows that increase protein alone does not grow muscle any better. Yiu need more of everything. That's why people go into cutting and bulking cycles, or just let it happen naturally by eating more whole foods. These make you lose weight while holding onto the muscle, so adding a little muscle bit by bit gets good resultsin the long run. (Where as cutting makes you lose some muscle too).
If you eat around 2000 calories of legumes, whole grains, veg, fruit, nuts and seeds, you will get approx 70-80g of protein and that's still double of what the WHO suggests. You shouldnt have any issues getting gains
The thing with macros is, that it doesn't tell you the whole story, there's things that happen with micronutrients and fiber (the forgotten macro lol, meat has no fiber, so the fitness industry ignores it...) that makes you healthy, lean and grow muscle. E.g. what about the antioxidants that keep you fresh, or what about the nitrates that allow you to get more oxygen and energy etc. With whole foods you get it all
