Anyone know if there are any more recent and conclusive studies regarding the "anabolic window"?
Even though it may be inconclusive, reading through this, I'm seeing that just 75g of carbs and 37g of protein seems to stave off catabolism for 5 hours when taken post-workout!
This means that 4 meals a day is just right in the proper doses 👍🏻

Whoohoo! Thanks for your research! I basically have lunch, workout shake, dinner then my midnight snickers/shake/protein bar (whatever I have room for or protein needs). I don’t eat from about 1am to noon though. Hope I don’t waste the muscle while sleeping and before lunch. You are so good at finding these things!

I eat breakfast only when I am traveling or special occasions. I do however have creamer and Splenda in coffee some mornings. 35-60 kcal. Do you think that’s enough? I can possibly cut back on my dinner portions and add a shake or egg for breakfast. I feel ill if I eat a meal within 2 hours of getting up usually. The hunger pains start about then and I’m good to eat then lol. Don’t want to waste gains so perhaps I can make sure not to have low protein high calorie meals two days in a row so that I can add in an extra shake in the mornings. You are full of such great information! I should start calling you Trainer Chris!

My gym day schedule is generally 12-2 lunch, shake 6-7, dinner 8-9, snack 12-2am. Something like that. I’m normally full for my snack but it’s my treat for the day usually. So protein in mornings isn’t needed but rather carbs. I can have 90 kcal in toast and 100 kcal in butter of a morning. Two pieces of toast won’t upset the stomach or make me feel bloated. Lunch today is 30g protein and like 300 kcal. On a roll to add in a snack around 3-4 even if it’s just a cookie or something. The book says 30g minimum at a meal/snack and I need that like 6 times a day! I’d eat nothing but meatball day and run out of calories.

Yep, that's what I keep reading. 4 meals evenly spread out.
