Article: Meat For Postworkout Nutrition

Eating protein post workout? I'm pretty sure that wont do anything.
 
I sometimes have meat post workout, if it just happens to workout like that, but this..."The study was financed by the National Cattlemen's Beef Association [beef.org] and by Canada Beef [canadabeef.ca]."...is a bit suspect, no? Not saying the study isn't valid, but there's gotta be a less bias source, right?

I gotta assume they mean just cooked up in a pan with a bit of oil, not like deep fried.

The minced meat is what sketched me out. Perhaps it's just the terminology. I think of minced meat as the bottom of the barrell variety meat.

Or just chopped up filet minon.

This is wild that "eating meat after training for increased protein sythesis" is news to every one. How are you guys even making gains in the gym without applying this basic advice?

I don't really eat anything specific post workout, sometimes its dinner (lean meat, veggies, some fat, some carbs maybe) or I have a shake (whey and milk). Unless you are training in a fasted state, I thought nutrient timing wasn't all that important. I'd imagine there is two sides to the argument though.
 
I eat raw beef during my workout. Scares the hell out of the p u s s i e s curling in the squat rack.

I'd say experiment and see for yourself. I personally believe in the 1hr window after training. Experiential evidence indicates that such things matter for desireable nutrient partitioning.
