Most athletes require around 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight. Some athletes, especially those with a fast metabolism may need higher amounts from 1.5 to 2 grams per pound of body weight. This fact is often disputed among scientists, companies and athletes, often being cited much lower at 1g per kg of bodyweight being the maximum requirement. Of course this would depend on a number of factors including training intensity, frequency, absorption, quality of protein etc, specific supplementation designed to absorb more protein, drug use etc. Most people who take maximuscle promax roughly supplement 50% of their protein needs.
