How this calculator works

  • Daily protein is estimated from body weight multiplied by a target intake factor.
  • Higher training or dieting phases usually push the intake factor upward.
  • This is a planning range rather than a medical prescription.

Worked example

At 70 kg and a 1.6 g/kg target, daily protein lands around 112 g.

Important assumptions

  • Targets are based on common sports-nutrition ranges.
  • Medical conditions can change suitable protein intake.
  • Food quality and total energy intake also affect outcomes.
