how much whey is too much?

[sharky]

how much protein (whey) is too much? at the mo im drinking 3 servings of HQ protein each day (23 grams each). Including food I calulated I down about 150-170 grams of protein a day along with good carbs and good fats. Is this enough protein to gain lean muscle?

cheers guys.

aim for a round 2 grams of protein a day per KG of bodyweight

Isnt that the recommended amount for the average person who doesnt do much?

Thought it was closer to 3-3.5g depending on how hard / often you work out.

nope, for bodybuilding around 2 to maybe 2.5 grams for steriod hgh freaks 4 or more perhaps, natural guys should have plenty at 2 grams

Depends on whether your trying to cut or bulk. If your cutting then drop the shakes towards the end of your cut and just eat real food. if your bulking then mix your shakes with oats, bananas etc.. and scull em up.
