Thanks for the answer Joe Pulaski.
If you are trying to grow one would assume you are eating more calories than you’re expending. In that case the protein amounts won’t really matter much. It’s likely a really good idea to get a large, high quality serving of protein twice a day. Let’s say 30-50g per meal from proper sources.
140g of high quality protein spread out 2-4x a day would be great. But if you’re Vegan or choose other diets where a lot of the 140g doesn’t come from full profile amino acid sources you might be leaving a fraction of optimality behind.
If cutting this becomes slightly more nuanced and important.
