following heavy resistance training (mps) is elevated by 50% 4 hours post and peaking to 109% 24 post. any thoughts on using these figures to optimize protein intake?

Maintain a positive nitrogen balance throughout each and every day to maximize protein synthesis. You basically cover this with good pre/post nutrition and at least 6 meals per day.

Good and then try to shoot for a few more high prot. snacks. Perhaps from casienate like cottage cheese or micellar shake in the middle of the night to optmize growth.

protein sources high in BCAA (like whey) can be helpful with maximizing protein synthesis rates in the short term post workout window (0-3h). Also high physiologic levels of insulin--potent through various pathways.
