I am 66 kg and 168cm tall, male, office worker. Gym bros tell me that I should have 66*2.2=145.2g of protein daily to build muscle OR 1g of protein per pound of body mass which means 66 kg converted to pound is 145.5 pound which is also my protein daily intake in g. 145.2 and 145.5 do not look different from each other, to be honest.
So... gym bros also tell me that chicken breast is best. I do not have a weighing scale. So... my question is
how many chicken breast to eat per day to get my daily protein intake which is 145.2g-145.5g? Tq in advanced.

QUOTE(axtray @ Aug 9 2022, 09:12 AM) 100g chicken breast without skin yields about 20-25g protein. You'll need to ingest more than half a kilo to even come close. There are plenty of other sources of protein. Diversify your options or you'll crash out. So 145/25= I should eat about 6 chicken breast per day???
