It depends on what you mean by absorb. To make into muscle, it’s about right. Maybe a bit more for a man on a hard weight lifting regime. Like, 4 x 1-1.5 hours a week. The rest will be stored as fat, if it isn’t used for energy, the same as anything else. That could also be seen as absorbed but I think you mean the first one.
