    Matt Wenning,
    Love the presentation but collagen is a very low quality protein for muscle, due to its low lysine levels. I do take it, but specifically for tendon, ligament, and general joint health, not for muscle, and i certainly don't count it towards my protein intake. Which leads me to ask, how many grams of this collagen do you take per day? Since you're counting it towards you total daily protein content, and it isn't muscle anabolic, that figure should be lower than the 1:1 protein grams to LBM ratio you recommend.
    If you have issues with whey, try whey isolate as it's easier to digest, than whey concentrate, and itll have virtually no lactose, milk sugar, as that may be giving you gastric issues.
    I believe there's various isolates now, some partially digested or broken down if I recall. But you could buy enzymes on the side, including to break down milk sugars, if you want to use whey concentrate, which is more affordable. Some Canadian products also included digestive enzymes as part of the whey formula. Bromolain was also a supplement sold to aid digestion, protein and fats if I recall, and had anti-inflammatory effects.
    And there always egg protein, as an alternative to whey, which is the quality standard, and some would say even better than whey, depending on the rating used.

    I know several people that misunderstand their body and they don't know what protein is and carbs are.
    basically everything you eat has protein and carbs what the different things that you eat have either higher or lower amounts of protein....
    You are not going to get it from buying a bunch of protein shakes and missing real food it doesn't work that way a protein shake is just a supplement it has its uses but if you are not digesting real food you are not going to see the results you are looking for....

    when you calculate protein, do you count only meat and other sources or you also count like the 3g per meal of rice or potatoes ? those adds up after 5-6 meal ...

    • @nickvoelker7180
      @nickvoelker7180 3 года назад

      That's kind of a loaded question. If you get super analytical about it, there are lots protein sources out there you can discount because of the quality or the type of amino acids present. i.e. I don't log the 17g from my collagen supplement because I know that protein is going to do nothing to directly help me build muscle. You can look up the PDCAAS chart and check the quality of the protein you're eating, and then decided if you really want to count it towards your daily total. Typically grains, nuts, potatoes, and legumes are middle of the road protein sources with the exception of Quinoa which scores higher because it's a complete protein source (it has all the essential amino acids). I personally count those sources of protein in my daily total, though I rarely eat rice or potatoes, and stick to chickpea or lentil pasta, quinoa, and oatmeal for my carbs.

      Figure out your body fat percent. Once you find that out you multiple it but your actual weight. For example. If you weight 200lbs and have 20% body fat then you do 200x.20 = 40 now you subtract 40 from 200 and 180 is your lean body mass

    So I have a similar lean body mass to you (DEXA #) with 15 extra pounds of overall body weight @6'3. I never..and I mean never..hit anything that looks like 200+ grams of protein in a single day, landing most of the time at 130-140 grams. I'm not a meat eater and boost with whey. If I took in that much protein, I'd do nothing but sleep all day.
    I'll add that I'm also in my mid 50s, have many decades of lifting and played 2 sports in D1...meaning a lot of wear. I'm wondering if your protein intake is influenced by your training frequency. My joints and tendons can take lifts 3-4 times per week IF 2 of those are accessory days (small muscle targeting and lighter loads). If you can/do go heavy each day, am I hitting roughly your same number between workouts instead of counting out as daily intake? (longer breaks between lifting days, doubling up on protein and repair to match your daily number).
    Food for thought.
