LBM and Protein
Most lean body mass calculators give me a count of about 89-90 lbs. Moderate activity(PP) is 0 .6, puts me in the 60g protein category.
I went to The Zone webpage :
http://www.enterthezone.com/Site/co...lator_Women.asp
got a LBM of 89, and a protein requirement of 77 grams. I have an 11 Zone Block requirement which explains the 77g.
Why is there such a difference in Protein requirements? Is this because of this 40% carbs, 30% protein, ratio? 17g is another 3 eggs a day!
