Proteins are the building blocks for muscles. Whether you are trying to
build new muscle or maintain what you have, muscles need protein. And they must have enough. Consume at least 1 gram of protein for every two pounds of body weight, and on days when you are very active consume 1.5 grams for every 2 pounds. Make sure you are consuming
protein with the 8 essential
amino acids, or else your body will not be able to use the protein you eat.
These are minimum requirements. Those training extremely hard may need additional protein.
