    Rule of thumb is
    1. Weight in pounds divided by 2.2 = weight in kg
    2. Weight in kg x 0.8-1.8 gm/kg = protein gm.

    so about 100g per day

    Around 90 grams for your weight would be plenty. There's a thought that athletes don't need anymore protein than a sedentary person as they may use their protein 'better' but I don't subscribe to that at this point in time.

    You just need to drink "enough".

    With the salt in the normal diet more is usually better.

    What I do is typically drink 8 oz of juice, or half a gatorade to get some of them electrolytes back
