Can you tell me if i have around 200 grams of protein per day will i build more muscle faster?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That is a lot : of protein, much more than normally needed. It will not build muscle faster. Exercise, especially resistance training, combined with a healthy diet(including adequate protein), will build muscle. Excess protein won't build muscle.
