In this article we explore how different people doing different things with their body need differing amounts of protein to reach their goals. We discuss the protein needs of sedentary/light active people, athletes, those trying to lose fat while retaining muscle, those trying to gain muscle while minimizing fat gain, and how genetically and hormonally, we may sometimes need more or less protein than average.
