one would generally need to eat2 times your body weight in protein to obtain complete muscle recovery and no muscle dystrophy . however carbs would also be important for energy and to pick up general bulk as such . i would recommend500 calories more to be consumed than to be burnt in a daily consumption to gain the correct kind of mass without becoming fat.
