Hey.Not on gear.Not a monster sized guy. Got diet/training in order. Wanna get the most outta my recovery(72hrs). I got a few questions.(I dont really go by g's per bodyweight,I just scrump down as much as I can) 1-How long after eating the food or shake does it take your repairing muscle tissue to absorb and deplete the protein? (HOW LONG BEFORE A REFILL?) I have always thought 2-3hrs..... After how many g's(per meal) does it become pointless to consume(50-60???) And what supps can I take(other than roids) to give a slight synth.boost? I take glutamine(30gs a day-divided,micro) I hear gplen is better(will try after I run out) I also take creatine and the usual(vits,antioxs,bcaa's(shakes)
But is there anything else that helps improve protein synthesis---its a sick obsession I have...
Eh bro, by monster sized guy what do you mean? What are your stats?
ANyways, one of the biggest bodybuilding rumors is that 30 or more grams of protien per meal if useless. The body has the ability to digest and assimilate much more than 30 grams of protein from a single meal. Here is a little blurb for you.
"Speaking of high intakes of protein, people have been perpetuating the myth that you can only assimilate ~30 grams of protein at a time, making protein meals any greater than a 6 oz. chicken breast a waste. This is anything but true. For example, the digestibility of meat (i.e. beef, poultry, pork and fish) is about 97% efficient. If you eat 25 grams of beef, you will absorb into the blood stream 97% of the protein in that piece of meat. If, on the other hand, you eat a 10 oz steak containing about 60 grams of protein, you will again digest and absorb 97% of the protein. If you could only assimilate 30 grams of protein at a time, why would researchers be using in excess of 40 grams of protein to stimulate muscle growth?1
Critics of high protein intakes may try to point out that increased protein intake only leads to increased protein oxidation. This is true, nevertheless, some researchers speculate that this increase in protein oxidation following high protein intakes may initiate something they call the "anabolic drive".13 The anabolic drive is characterized by hyperaminoacidemia, an increase in both protein synthesis and breakdown with an overall positive nitrogen balance. In animals, there is a correspondent increase in anabolic hormones such as IGF-1 and GH. Though this response is difficult to identify in humans, an increase in lean tissue accretion does occur with exaggerated protein intakes.14,15
The take home message is that, if you are going to maximize muscle growth you have to minimize muscle loss, and maximize protein synthesis. Research clearly shows this is accomplished with heavy training, adequate calories, and very importantly high protein consumption. This means that meals containing more than 30 grams of protein will be the norm. Not to worry, all that protein will certainly be used effectively by the body."
Try to keep a constant flow of protein coming into your body. Spread out the meals and snacks throughout the day. Nothing promotes the buildup of protein better than dianabol. But it sounds like you are not looking to jump on a cycle.
