I've only seen g/kg which is less cursed. This is about the amount of protein you should eat relative to your body mass. But since this is a recommendation for daily intake, I would love to see gymbros use the SI version of g/kg/day, namely 1/s.

As a european, I love to hate on the imperial system. But expressing that ratio in units that you actually use when measuring the thing makes sense.

It's not like you're actually doing fancy maths with it, just cross-multiplication.

If you don't conveniently know your body weight in kg, you might as well remember the ratio in relation to lbs.
