But i have a question. buff said he eats 75g of protein per meal...wow, can your body absorb that much in one sitting ? what's the max for protein for one meal and how far apart should the meals be? thanks guys.

I think it is different for all people, I eat about 65g per meal, and try to eat every 2.5 hours

I probably eat more ground turkey per week myself. About 11lbs or so. Don't eat much deli meat because that would encourage me to eat more bread. I eat about 4 cans of tuna per week mostly in a tuna salad with light mayo and ceasar dressing. I don't even mess with egg whites just medium to large eggs period.
I haven't calculated how much protein powder in lbs I consume but probably no where near that much. I usually have about 4 scoops of Optimum Nutrition protein powder per day.

it all depends on the person and what they want to achieve or are doing.....protein intake is not an exact science, neither is the "what type of protein" To take...we all can debate the best protein, when to take it, how much etc...personally, I take an isolate shake pws, and upon waking in the morning...I then take a combo of casein/whey througout the day, generally in about 6 meals with a minimum of 50 g per meal...that includes shakes.....so I generally take about 2 g of protein per lb of body weight.....but only during a good cycle or mass/strength gains regimen.....you can mantain muscle mass with less, depending on your carb intake....to many variables huh....
IMO, the only time protein timing is important is pws, prior to bed, then upon waking....after that, it does not matter as long as you get about 30-50 g per meal..every 2 hrs...and that is not hard to do.....
