Protein Calculator

Get your evidence-based daily protein target for building muscle, cutting, or maintaining.

Hitting the Number

Split your target across 3–5 meals of 25–50g each. Whole foods first — a palm-sized serving of meat or fish is roughly 25–35g, three eggs about 18g, a cup of Greek yogurt about 20g. A whey shake conveniently covers the last gap; see our whey protein rankings if you need one.
