and carbohydrates, you probably have one or two hours on both sides of
your training window to get those benefits. Rather than worrying about
slamming down some waxy starch and whey hydrolysate immediately after

To back up this idea, recent data suggests that the total amount of
protein and carbohydrate you eat, over the course of the day, is more
important for body composition and performance than nutrient timing
strategies. Follow your evidence. Track your experience. Do what works —
measurably — for you. Flow with your natural inclination, and where your
own self-experimentation takes you.
So, that’s my bottom line.
