Executive Summary about Protein to Build Muscle by Spencer Jackson

You should try and consume a minimum of 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight which is equivalent to 2.2 grams per kilogram of body weight. So a 12 stone man weighs 168 pounds, 1 stone equals 14 pounds, a kilo equals 2.2 pounds which means he or she should consume 168 grams of protein per day as a minimum intake.

If taking performance enhancing products like steroids up to 2 grams of protein per pound of body weight should be consumed as steroids enhance the bodies ability to uptake protein (positive nitrogen balance) and increases muscle size dramatically when high protein is ingested.
