protein every 3 hours?

BUFFTECH

i have been told that you shouldnt take more than 40 grams of protein every 3 hours or you are wasting it is this true or is it 40 grams of each different protein? fill me in please!
 
The old 40 grams rule is a myth that has been broken for years now. ESPECIALLY if you are doing AS, which improves protein synthesis. Think about it, everywhere you look now the ones in the know are telling you to use a max. of 3 grams per pound of BW. (this is hard-core) If you weigh 200 pounds X 3 = 600 grams of protein per day. If you split that into say, (we'll really stretch it out) 8 meals a day, your talking 75 grams per meal!

Even if you weigh 160 pounds and only want to use a factor of 2 gr per lb., you are looking at 320 gr/day split into 6 meals puts you at 53.3 grams per meal. And you thought you wouldn't need all of that math they taught you in school in the real world!
