Answers:
Your lifting just the right ammount, 5 times a week and certain muscle groups each day is perfect.
Someone above me said 35g of protein a day. DO NOT listen to her.
you should be getting 1-1.5g of protein per pound of weight.
Protein will not make you fat, so dont worry, if your worried about gaining weight just watch your caloric intake (ammount of calories your taking)
Whey protein is perfect, and egg whites is good, but you can also mix it up with lean meats that are just effective in replacment of egg whites.
-turkey
-chicken
-tofu
You should be getting at least 170g of protein a day. Most of which should come before, during, and after workout. But make sure your getting enough throughout the day.
p.s. Get a good ceasin protein for your bed time. If you cant afford it, down some peanut-butter, yogurt, cottage cheese.Health Question & Answer

1 to 1.5 grams of protein a day for every gram of weight, so 170 to 255 grams.
Try and get as much as possible from your food (lean chicken, steak, eggs, etc) before using protein supplements, they should really only "top up" your protein needs.
This is recommended by most bodybuilding articles.
Although you lift weights 5 times per week, your training split means that each muscle group is being worked less than what it sounds like, but make sure you take adequate rest. It's a marathon, not a sprint!
When you are resting, that is when you grow the most (especially during sleep) and not while drinking protein shakes or actually working out!
Good luck!Health Question & Answer

The obvious way to burn fat is to eat less and move more, the issues surface when we really attempt to put that into operation! There are lots of temptations in the big wide world aren't there.?! The one method that clearly delivered for me was wu-yi tea, it can be viewed in the resource box underneath, they have a few free trials left, it was highlighted in Reader's Digest and CNN. I shed 25 pounds, it clearly does produce success!Health Question & Answer
without exercise its ) 0.8 times your weight in kg which is about 65 grams. If you are still at an age where u can still grow vertically then eating your weight in kg of protein daily is normal without exercise. So with exercising weights 5 times a week intensely i presume...I would say you're eating the right amount (140 grams) so keep it upHealth Question & Answer
