However, athletes trying to build muscle need 0.6 to 0.82 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day, according to a review published in a 2011 edition of the âJournal of Sports Sciences.â For example, a 160-pound man trying to bulk up may need up to 131 grams of protein each day.
Protein needs depend on age, size, and activity level. The standard method used by nutritionists to estimate the minimum daily protein requirement is to multiply your body weight in kilograms by 0.8, or weight in pounds by 0.37. This is the number of grams of protein that should be the daily minimum. According to this method, a person weighing 150 pounds should eat about 55 grams of protein per day, a 200-pound person should get 74 grams, and a 250-pound person should eat 92 grams.
