Two New Papers, Review & RCT, Suggest: Nutrient Timing May Boost Lean Mass Gains by ~70%,
More data supporting nutrient timing actually being of significance especially in the well trained population. This supports Mori's 2014 paper on the same subject. Lots of people still hold on to dear life pointing at the Aragon and Shoenfeld meta analysis but they completely ignore the fact that the meta analysis was analyzing available data at the time which virtually did not look at nutrient timing on the well trained strength training population. Mori's 2014 paper and the two newer papers since then have more specificity as it looks at the topic within the context of a well trained strength training population.
Some Cliffs:
the article discusses (2) studies.
-The first one it is looking at is looking at what we already know that spiking MPS more times throughout the day is likely to be beneficial for muscle development.
-The second study it is looking at (Coura 2017) is a study which further supports what was learned from the Mori 2014 study (the Mori 2014 study saw significantly less muscle protein breakdown with post workout protein intervention vs administering that dose iirc 6 hours post workout, this suggests that there is a nutritional anabolic window post workout but only in well trained strength trainees).
