Protein Calculator:

It is recommended that strength and power athletes should try to consume at least 1.5 to 2.0 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. Some experts may even recommend more. To find out your target protein intake, enter your body weight in the calculator below If you'd like to know more then please use the Discussion Forum.

A 200-pound athlete weighs about 91 kilograms. Using the calculator, we find that for a ingestion rate of 1.5 g protein/kg body weight, the athlete should ingest 136.5g protein per day. For the ingestion rate of 2.0g/kg, the figure is 182.0g. To ingest 182.0g protein over a day would require six daily meals; about 30g per meal.
