You both are correct. You need tons of protein to gain and maintain that huge muscle mass when you do bodybuilding. 200 ain't even so extreme compared to many, especially in the past.
The idea that such intake will not fuck you up later is naive. Due to all the healthy stuff that you do with and around weightlifting your health state is most probably stellar compared to same you not doing any sport, so you build a 'health margin' or whatever we can call it. But it still fucks you up, just different parts of the body.
Unless thats how you earn money and thus have to do it, I very politely suggest moving down 2 notches in intensity (if its for women they will still adore you, if compensating for some bad childhood stuff this ain't the best solution anyway). Either add more endurance if you feel not doing enough or another sport, more endurance is anyway supremely usable in all aspects of life. But as said that's just a polite suggestion for optimizing for truly long term health.
Czesc jajko dzieki za komentarz. I used bodybuilding as a catch all but what I am really doing is doing heavy strength training alongside muay thai/grappling. Either way, still need the protein. I would like to long term focus on cardio with only basic weight lifting once I hit my strength goals, so I agree with you.
