For the past few months now, I've been consuming a protein shake a couple hours before I go to bed because I find that helps me limit myself from having too much dessert.
Thank you for this explanation; is it better to do the 100 units or recovery right away, or more slowly over time, ie skipping the post workout shake until the big protein meal later?
Yeah, I was trying to identify what the distinction was between those two tidbits. If you miss a post-workout protein meal but shouldn’t worry because your responses for the next day’s 3 meals will be greater, then how do you reconcile that with the fact that if you don’t eat any protein the night before sleep, your response during breakfast will be no different than if you had actually consumed a pre-sleep protein meal?
Does your body gradually create an environment conducive to optimizing muscle synthesis? If so, which dietary and workout protocols are best for achieving this result and over what period of time do the favorable changes occur? (before plateauing)
Does protein powders give a glucose spike with the sweetener in them? The reason I ask is I’ve currently kicked my type 2 diabetes and concerned that if I start taking protein shakes after training it may increase my blood sugar?
Casein does not cause an insulin spike, myocellular Casein. The glucose response is very small as well because it's a slow release protein.Whey will cause a spike.
Dr.Attia, why is there nothing that identifies this chap? Nothing in the transcript, nothing in the caption, nothing in the box. No intro so we don’t know who he is, what he does, what his qualifications are. This is beyond annoying! Ah! I see name in pic. But still, he deserves an intro at least.
Reducing the overall amount of calories is correct, but it's important to remember that doesn't mean the actual composition of the food doesn't matter. It still very much does.
At the end of the day, just use your head and pay attention to your body! Don't need deep level science to know your body is hungry after a workout, fuel yourself after a workout and expect your body to use it to replenish itself. It makes NO SENSE for me to replenish myself the next day after workout and skip the immediate meal.
OMFG honestly, I would love an answer....how old are those pictures of you two in the thumbnail. I had to watch and rewatch to determine who was who...lol.
Is it 1.6g/kg of body weight or is it 1.6g/per kg of lean body weight or is it 1.6g/per kg of target body weight at target body fat%? Please someone clear this for me... i am tired of watching youtube videos trying to find the answer. Everyone seems to say different things.
1 g of protein per pound lean body mass is sufficient even on a cut, let alone a calorie surplus, and you can increase protein if you really hate carbs and fats and/or you are on anabolics
Sorry for critisizing, but your look at the problem is very superficial. Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS) Response: It is known that muscle protein synthesis can become more responsive to amino acids after periods of low protein intake or fasting. This phenomenon, known as the "rebound effect," might suggest that muscles could indeed become more sensitive to protein intake after a period of low protein availability. If this heightened sensitivity persists, it could lead to enhanced muscle growth when protein intake is subsequently increased. Protein Distribution: Consistent low protein intake might influence how the body allocates amino acids, possibly prioritizing essential functions and muscle repair. Upon reintroduction of higher protein intake, the previously primed muscle cells might exhibit a more pronounced anabolic response. Epigenetic Changes: Exercise and Epigenetics: Strength training induces epigenetic changes, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications, which can affect gene expression related to muscle growth and metabolism. These changes might prime the muscles for improved function and growth when coupled with optimal protein intake later. Long-term Adaptations: The epigenetic modifications induced by training could have lasting effects, potentially leading to better muscle maintenance and function even in the absence of immediate protein supplementation. Over time, these adaptations might improve muscle responsiveness and overall metabolic health. Therefore having days or even weeks with an scarcity of proteins after training has many long term health benefits and also anabolic benefits for future training situations. Never thought about that? Really 😒? You can't get to new insights, if your thinking is so much straightforward and in the box. Exiting topic though 👍

Not trying to endorse or push a product, but I've been taking PerfectAmino for some time now. The idea is to get the essential proteins with the least amount of calories. It contains many of the amino acids discussed in this video, including Leucine which apparently is very effective at starting anabolic muscle growth. Any thoughts on continued use? Am I missing much from not eating strictly milk-based or meat-based proteins?
This is sold in 5g pills. Compare with the amount of protein consumed and processed by the body daily discussed in this podcast and you'll know what the answer is :)
@@rafalsjourney I take 10 pills per dose. That equates to 30g of protein. I can imagine that since the amino acids are already broken down in the product that the digestability and digestion rate is very high. Which is good for muscle growth, except there are many things in whole foods that I may be missing. Why eat whole foods if I can get all I need from a pill?
> Why eat whole foods if I can get all I need from a pill? Pleasure would be a one thing. Another is lack of other macronutrients and fiber. If you take it to the extreme lengths en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_poisoning Neither in this podcast or other literature I haven't seen any indication that protein digestion is a limiting factor for muscle growth and we can win something significant by providing aminoacids instead. This solution is also not cost efficient and takes your focus from more important parts - training intensity and the amount of macros.
@@rafalsjourney They do clearly state that the most effective anabolic response comes from Leucine IN ADDITION AND DEPENDENT on training stimulus. Basically, they are not mutually exclusive and agree with your statement. Still, the natural thought progression is why not just use Leucine as fuel if your goal is to build muscle?
Dr. Sten Ekberg in a UA-cam about why meat raises blood sugar says that only 17% of whey protein is used as building blocks, the rest is used as energy.
Over complicating food intake seems to be in fashion on you tube. Everyone has a different body and everyone has a different digestive system. The main use for protein when training is to rebuild damage muscle tissue and build the muscle. Synthesis quality is dependent on many bodily functions and glugging down a dose of protein in a liquid at anytime is not the way to consume protein. chew your food. lol, as Charles Atlas used to say.

There is no such thing as "protein quality". It's what people use as a term in order to justify consuming animal protein. Plant protein is no different in terms of muscle building and avoids the unnecessary harming and enslavement of animals.
Yes there is. Protein quality has been assessed many times in the literature in terms of digestibility, amino acid ratio and anabolic response post absorption. Here’s a link to one of the many studies on the topic: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3905294/

Your 3:10 summary is in contradiction with the 5:00 study results, no?

Does protein powders give a glucose spike with the sweetener in them? The reason I ask is I’ve currently kicked my type 2 diabetes and concerned that if I start taking protein shakes after training it may increase my blood sugar?
Apparently yes, regardless if sweetened or not it spikes insulin
Take a shake then do the glucose test it definitely spikes it

Casein does not cause an insulin spike, myocellular Casein. The glucose response is very small as well because it's a slow release protein.Whey will cause a spike.
Don’t forget about foods high in potassium
So, stop sweating meal timing. Got it.
I couldn’t follow this explanation. What is the bottom line?
Eat food and exercise consistently
Have a high protein dinner, exercise regularly
Eat pro teens

Eat less
Less calories than you expend
Protein

Eat more protein. It less food in general. It healthy stuff. Work the fuck out. Dont be a bitch. Thats basically it

Make it simple - 1 gram per pound of goal weight.

So it's goal weight. Thank you v much!
