Upping my protein to 210g from 170g. Probably just a waste of money

I doubt it would make any difference but I figured I'd experiment. I weigh 185 lbs atm.

I'm also cutting so I figured it might be good to keep protein high just to be on the safe side.

I'll report back with results.

Thoughts?

Not sure if it will make a difference. If you are on roids, when the body runs on fuel faster it would make sense though.

For me upping from 130g to 170g made a big difference. Tried from 170 to 220 and just go constipated more often and ended up eating something inbetween, like 190g.

What difference did you notice going from 130g to 170g? And what was your bodyweight at the time?

Law of diminishing returns, plus things like lifting-age, body composition, innate personal protein utilization, etc. will determine if this makes any sort of difference for you or not.

If you're natty you probably won't notice much difference other than possibly the added satiety while you're cutting, which could lead to better final results as you may end up being more strict with your diet. The tough part would be determining if the better results were purely from being more strict or if the additional protein makes the difference.

Take those calories frombothcarbs and fats btw - don't just say 'fukk you carbs' or 'fukk you fats' and pull purely from one of them to get the extra protein into your calorie count.

Yup. Carbs are essential for quality workout.
