A gram per pound is overshooting it quite a bit unless you’re a vegan not minding your protein quality intake. The maximum effective protein intake is ~1.6g/kg (0.72g/lbs), more than that will just go to “waste” (energy/energy storage). If you’re steroids the limit is higher, but there’s currently no exact number on it.

“Energy storage” generally meaning “fat,” for the Americans in the audience.
