How much protein per meal

[IceIzNoble]

You weigh more because you have more muscle, therefore, your body needs more protein.
Simple really, if your at 270lbs. You should be having 300g as a minimum imo,
I'd prob up it to around 350 if I were you.

yeah, I should be totally fine with 350 grams per day. but, if I'm eating 6 meals a day that is pretty much 60g per day and as I understand it my body can't absorb that much per meal....I might have to bump up to 7-8 meals a day. but it still seems like a lot....

Your body can absorb that much per meal, what makes your think it can't?
Btw, studies which say only 30g protein every 2 hours as a max are based on the average man who doesn't lift weights.
Your carrying much more muscle than that kind of person, so you need more.

Ive always heard it was 1-2g protein per lean body mass. So is it lean or total?
