Answer

Unless you are an elite athlete, there is no real benefits to consuming more than 1.5 g/1 lb of body weight. That being said, sometimes when people are cutting they opt to increase their protein as it can help maintain feelings of satiety for longer. The best way to know how much protein you’re actually consuming is simply to track the foods you regularly eat and weigh them out. You didn’t list your height and current weight, but if you are regularly training calisthenics, 70-100 g is likely not enough.

Answer

The usual recommendation is 1.6-2.2g per kg of bodyweight. You could consider aiming for the upper end of this spectrum since plant based protein sources are typically less bioavailable then animal sources. If you’re anywhere in this range though you’re going to be fine.

The other advice usually given to vegans is to make sure you’re getting protein from a variety of sources. This is simply because many plant based sources of protein are incomplete, so eating a variety of sources ensures you’re fulfilling all your amino acid requirements.
