This is called its amplitude. In the case of the pendulum, its amplitude is the maximum height it rises to. In the case of a spring it is the maximum compression (or stretch) distance. Notice that to compress a spring further and further, you need to push it harder and harder.
I recommend .8 grams of protein per lb of lean body mass for males and females who exercise at least 3 times per week and are trying to lose body fat. A 150 lb woman with 25% bodyfat would aim to consume about 90 grams of protein in a day. Thatâs 3 meals with 20 grams of protein per meal and 3 snacks with 10 grams of protein, and THAT, my friends, is also very doable.
However, this is too much protein for any woman to consume, including very active women. According to the Institute of Medicine, women should consume at least 46 grams of protein every day. Individualized needs are based on a womanâs total calorie intake. Harvard Medical School suggests women consume about 15 percent of their daily calories from protein; since protein provides 4 calories per gram, this is about 75 grams of protein per day for women consuming 2,000-calorie diets.
