I weight train seriously 3-4 times per week and do 2 other fitness related activities. i am trying to both lose weight and build muscle. i gather i should be eating around th 1.5g of protein per kg i weigh. is this roughly correct? how much protein can be absorbed by the body? ie. is it a waste of money if i eat more than a certain amount of protein in any 1 hour period as some of it will just pass through me?
if anyone knows a figure that for example, "only 20g of protein can be absorbed in any 3 hour period", that would be most helpful to know.
thanks very much!
