    How It Works

    🧮 Our calculator uses a base protein factor of 1.2g per kg of body weight.

    🏋️‍♂️ We then adjust this factor based on your sport, training intensity, and goals:

    • Sport type can add 0.2-0.5 to the factor
    • Training intensity can add 0.2-0.6
    • Goals can add 0.1-0.3

    🍗 Finally, we calculate your daily protein need and suggest a variety of protein sources to meet this goal.

    Recommendations

    Spread your protein intake throughout the day for optimal absorption.

    🥩 Aim for a mix of animal and plant-based proteins for a complete amino acid profile.

    💧 Increase your water intake when consuming more protein.

    🍎 Don’t neglect other nutrients – maintain a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.

    📊 Regularly reassess your protein needs as your weight, training, and goals change.
