protein calculator

When it comes to body composition changes, whether it be gaining muscle, losing body fat, or a total recomposition, the most important macronutrient to keep in check is protein. Right behind total calorie intake, protein will better determine the type of bodyweight you gain or lose. 

​

Whether you gain muscle or fat, whether you lose muscle or fat.

​

The typical American diet sees less than 80g of protein per day (often below 50g) which can lead to becoming skinny-fat (softer, less cut and tone look) when losing weight, or frustrating plateaus when trying to gain lean body mass.

​

When trying to change your composition keeping protein higher will result in better preserving lean body mass, feeling more satiated on a diet, and finishing in a more defined and athletic look.

This calculator will help you get a better estimation of how much protein you should consume day-to-day.
