How much protein ????????

TweetI would like anyone's opinion on the factors that determine how much protein one should take in daily, when you're on a steroid cycle. I'm 6 ft, 230 lbs, and i'm really tired of feeling so damn full and bloated all the time trying to get it all in.

Tweeti try to get 1.5 grams per pound of bodyweight lots of guys go much higher. i know eating is a chore but it must be done try taking a gram of ginger before eating a meal or shake heavy in protein it helps keep the bloat down for me. also aides digestion. dont forget fiber as well. also you can go to a health food store and get digestion aides that may help.

Tweetthanks man, but aside from the basic rules, i would like to know what people factor in as to how much protein they should take in. i know that when you gain more mass, you should increase the intake for maintenance, and so on. like i saw a pro bodybuilder at the olympia last year at a buffet, with a plate stacked high with steaks, probably 10 steaks or so. but then again, he was probably 275 lbs, and built and cut up. i know that there is no way i could eat that much at one sitting. he obviously requires more for his physique. how do i determine how much i need for mine ?

TweetEveryone starts with a baseline to work with for example you might start out with 2 grams of protein/bodyweight if you are going to do a cycle if it's a real heavy cycle some start at 3 then they work from there,if they aren't gaining any then they bump up their calories by 500 and their protein content about .5 grams until they start gaining.
