I am 88kg and I am taking proteins

how much grams of proteins should I be taking if I do protein shakes daily?

state your goals and your training schedule

5 days a week
Goals... Gain muscle haha

you probably can do the nutty bro advice of 1g per pound of body weight but i've always just assumed you'd poop out a lot of that
you'd just rather have your protein available in your digestive tract for absorption capped instead of not enough
read about clean bulking versus dirty bulking
you can count your calories and macros, find your resting metabolic rate, pinpointing weight gain goals
and as long as you're making gains on the bar--progressively adding weight and/or reps to your barbells every week you'll certainly get more muscle

you're going to want to be in a caloric surplus. doesn't need to be big. You're going to want to train hard with good form until failure. Take in AT LEAST your weight in grams of protein.

Now if you're trying to lose belly fat, while adding muscle - thats a different story.

hope this helps

personally id never go below 1.5 protein per kg.

naturally or enhanced, as enhanced id never go below 2.5 gram of protein per kg.

I'm guessing you're only asking about how much protein from shakes?
I do at least 100G proteins from shakes, and another 100g from food.
At 86kg weight.

My guy just eat chicken breast and limit the shakes to only if you’re in a bind and traveling and need something quick.

You see significant diminished returns with 95% confidence after 0.86g per lb of body weight. Eating between 0.75-1g per lb is perfectly fine. The remainder should be dietary fats and the majority should be carbs.

Well, I do 50g of whey protein after working out and another 50g of casein before bed.
I struggle to eat, and eating 750grams of chicken breast just aint my thing. There's is absolutely no reason whatsoever not to drink whey and/or casein.
They only time in my life I had apetite to eat all that protein + all the needed carbs and fats was when I was doing 750 test and 500 deca




"Protein supplementation beyond total protein intakes of 1.62 g/kg/day resulted in no further RET-induced gains in FFM" this is copy pasta straight up from your link, 66-88g of protein aint no way he will increase his muscle mass. Surely he can get shredded and have a decent physic, but keep in mind this dude is 88 kilos, depending on how tall he is this guy is most likely already on the bigger side (Muscle mass and/or fat) and if it's muscles I'd say that 88g of protein aint even close if he wants to build.
