quite off!

You need at least 0.8g / kilo (referring to 0.4g / pound) if you are doing nothing heavy, like walking to the office.

If you do moderate sports, you are hitting 1.0g / kilo immediately.

If you do some more extensive sports, like 3 - 4 days / week in gym, you jumü to 1.2 - 1.4g / kilo.

Bodybuilders are quite above :-))

Regarding the number of chicken breasts - scary for me, Im enough with a half one every second or third day.

There was a great movie about vegan & bodybuilding with known sports people: The Gamechangers - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Game_Changers

I am not sure if you're disagreeing with the original poster here but you're both saying the same thing in different units. 1g/kg != 1g/lb which is A LOT more protein and a complete waste of time. As a mostly vegetarian who lifts regularly, I am targeting a bit more than 1g/kg but being from the US it is a lot less than 1g/lb. :p

maybe I was wrong? 1 pound = 500g 1 kilo = 1000g

therefore, multiplied by 2, though the numbers I showed are higher
