b. What are the maximum recommendations for protein intake for strength-training athletes? grams per kilogram per day

a.- 56 g of protein per day.

b.- 1.2 - 2.0  g per day per kg depending the sport.

c. Among 84 - 140 g depending the sport that he is going to practice.

Explanation:

a.- If the recommendation is 0.8 g - 1 kg

                                             x  -  70 kg

x= (70 kg x 0.8 g) / 1 kg = 56 g

b.-  Based on the The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, Dietitians of Canada and the American College of Sports Medicine.

c. Based on the recommendations of the Academy:

If the recommendation is 1.2 g - 1 kg

                                             x  -  70 kg

x= (70 kg x 1.2 g) / 1 kg = 84 g

If the recommendation is 2 g - 1 kg

                                             x  -  70 kg

x= (70 kg x 2 g) / 1 kg = 140 g

b and c would be the answers
