SUMMARY: consuming protein 3 hours before and after your workout compared to consuming protein directly before and after your workout makes no difference. CONCLUSION: this doesn’t mean there is no anabolic window, but it means that you don’t need to rush consuming protein directly after your workout, and can instead wait up to 3 hours.

The pragmatic studies indicate that muscles are more sensitive to protein synthesis for up to 48 hours following muscle damage (training) on a sliding scale. Just like everything else the body tends not to have on/off switches in body maintenance. For the majority of people just follow your daily macros and you'll be fine. 👍

I mean, I like a protein shake after my workout, it just feels satisfying and well-earned to down it when I finish my last rep, but I don't delude myself into thinking it'll make a huge difference. And also I make dinner after my post-workout shower and I want to drink the shake before dinner rather than after so I don't ruin the taste of good food with some sketchy chocolate flavor.

its like a good routine, i get it, for me, i workout quite late and i try to not eat after a few hours before bedtime so i workout, shower (cant have back acne sitting in that sweat for too long), then i eat (because i dont want to get full/bloated by drinking the shake first, its already hard enough getting myself to eat normally and enough, not wasting food), then i drink my shake, give it some time to digest then i go to sleep

Very cool! The study that showed that 100g of protein can be absorbed efficiently, showed a 20% increase in protein synthesis in the first 4h compared to 25g, I wonder, can a larger volume of protein have any effect?

The missing element here is insuline response. 100g of protein induces a VASTLY higher insuline response than 25g. And as we know insuline is super anabolic.

Anyone else read about a year ago that the new anabolic window was actually consuming protein 2-3 hours after your workout? The reason was you're supposed to let your body ride the burn without supplementation so it forces the brain to release growth hormone during the that 2-3 hour window.

I believe protein timing after a workout is only benefical as it helps individuals create a healthy routine with regard to their nutrition. I.e. ensuring they meet their protein needs for the day and/or potentially avoiding eating unhealthy food. We know creating healthy habits can work best if bolted onto an existing habit/routine thus embedding the behaviour change.

40 is a decent sized study group. There's this misconception about statistics that you need some enormous sample number to draw reliable conclusions, which is simply not how the mechanics work. The results plot on this study pretty much show it, the outcomes for both test groups are smeared over pretty big range, so protein timing doesn't really make a whole lot of difference for this group.
@xanderthedev
@xanderthedev 6 ай бұрын
The research question isn't really clear. And in the conclusion and discussion they also say that protein intake does enhance muscle growth, because of their result which they can't say because they didn't actually test it (they didn't have a group that ate less protein or no protein). There are more problems with this study if you read through it. It's just really flawed, they also didn't really have a big group of participants. This study is flawed in a lot of ways, I wouldn't really pull conclusions out of this... And also @PictureFit, you should give/show more sources if you say that there are a lot of other studies out there. And for the people: No I am not for any kind of protein timing. I'm just saying the research is flawed with some examples. Just read it yourself. And don't say I'm wrong about my assessment of the study if you have not read the study already yourself

2gram per kg is way too high for the timing to matter imo Im not any expert at all but with 2g/kg, the person will hardly ever have any period/time that they lack protein Itll be different for people that consume below 1g/kg (just my thoughts tho) Edit: also i think taking protein before workout makes way more sense since the body prolly need time to digest it and process it before it became useable

Anabolic window lasts throughout the whole next night. It's not the protein you need to take immediately after workout, it's carbs - to close the catabolic processes in muscles. You need an insulin spike from fast carbs to stop catabolism and additional protein will also enhances this. Protein synthesis in enhanced many hours after workout. Much more than protein immediately after workout is protein in evening lasting during the night.

I don't believe that timing is important for protein intake. However, here are a few things you might want to cover that the study doesn't. Protein is an appetite suppressant; it makes me less hungry after consuming it. So if someone was trying to restrict their calorie intake they might want to have a protein shake after exertion when they would be feeling the most peckish. For myself I am using this as part of my weight loss goals. I exercise in the mornings, but I drink a protein shake at night before bedtime. This reduces my midnight cravings for snacks and should (in theory) improve my sleep quality. After my workout I instead have lots of veggies and oatcakes.
