The number in the study is for total daily intake. Not supplementation during a ride.
yes 131grams is 4.6oz, but we are talking protein, not food weight. You cant buy protein by the oz. A protein bar has 20g. 3 eggs is 18g of protein, 1/2lb burger is 32.5g of protein, 1 cup chopped chicken breast 40g. Getting enough is not as easy as it seems unless your eating a LOT of meat and eggs.
