that calculation was for total daily calories, not protein !!!
a minimum is 1 gram of protein per lb of bw.
i more favor the higher amounts myself: 1.5 -2 * bw
but that is what i find I do better on.Size is SEXY!

I also find better results with 1.5 times bodyweight for protein intake.

2,900 grams of protein a day might give me a slight case of bowel discomfort not to mention the complete and utter failure of 2/3 of my internal organs.

1gm/lb body weight is more than enough for muscle growth as long as you are consuming enough carbs & fat to provide energy.
Now in pain, only working out the walking sticks.

Cortisol is the enemy.
Remember, it is not whether you win or lose, it's how good you look playing the game.
