Protein powder/shakes is go to for most of the folks I know trying to pack on the calories. 

2400-2500 Calories, usually 40% carbs/protein & 20% fat. Make sure you limit the protein to 30g per meal/snack.  

K, yeah get below 10% BF 

I work with a lady former body builder and sells beverley products. she said their website has a lot of info on diet plans. I know I saw huge changes when she recommended with my age 43 almost 44) 40% protein is minimum. as we age we need more. been working for me. currently I'm leaning so I do 2400 cals a day 40% protein some days is up to 50% depends on how I look and feel and how hungry I am. split 30% carbs and fat but really they just kind of end up wherever. rest days I go higher fat and maybe 100 grams carbs lift days I go 200 carbs. the proteins are my focus. I'm not an expert or anywhere near knowledgeable. I've just been playing with macros. but at 43 I cut a 6 pack and never had one before. granted it's hidden more now than a year ago but I'm close. hope I helped some.  

40% protein... some days I hit low 30%ish...that's a lot of protein. 

Seems like that at first. And maybe it doesn't effect others like me but ease up to it. A sudden increase and I fumigate the whole apartment. 🦨🦨 But after awhile I crave it. Especially on days with good workouts. My body wants it.  

👏👏👏👏👍 

H1036, same happens here with the Proteins. My wife constantly reminds me of the “air” odor 😂 

I'm thankful my wife is a frequent offender of the sinuses. Some nights the covers never touched us.  

I heard that you can only absorb so much protein in a meal. Also, I'm not sure it's great to overload the kidneys when you're older unless you're an athlete. I don't want to counter or offend anyone but,, I'd ask your doctor and do a bit more research just to be certain. 

I did find this the other day. For me looks like no more that 100g protein. https://www.webefit.com/Calculators/Calc_protein.html 

Sorry John. I did just jump in. Bears right. I just offered what I'm doing but with work I'm super active. Didn't mean to be a know it all. Be safe.  

It's all good. I value everyone's input. I know I need to find what works for me. The more information I can get from others, the better direction I can put myself.  

Excellent work. #inspiring
