My cousin joined a weighttraining class this semester for his highschool and he asked me yesterday if theres any advice i can give him to help him maximize his gains (not his words.). His ultimate goal was the same goal I had when I started lifting, to lose weight, and put on muscle. Coming from an asian family, I wasnt surprised to learn he wasnt getting the necessary protein he needed in a day, less than 60 grams from what he told me he ate that day. He currently weighs 190 lbs, which is more than I weigh (yea, hes fat). So I would feel stupid recommending he eat 1.5x his bw in protein since, thats more than I take in, and he has very little muscle to use that protein anyway. So how much? I'm thinking of recommending 110g, like i said, 190 lbs, roughly 5'10", and a wheel around his stomach.
