This paper shook up the sports science world when @BradSchoenfeld and I dared to challenge the anabolic window paradigm back in 2013. https://t.co/SHCv4hMI9S

What people are saying
The discussions showcase a variety of perspectives on nutrient timing, including references to other studies and challenges to the traditional 'anabolic window' notion. Phrases like 'still relevant IMO' and 'game changer' demonstrate the participants' strong interest in the implications of the findings. Additionally, discussions that state 'you don’t have to down that protein shake 5 mins after your workout' illustrate a shift in thinking regarding immediate post-exercise nutrition, reflecting the tone of curiosity and critical evaluation seen throughout the conversation.
Many posts express general consensus with the article's main arguments regarding the anabolic window concept, though some dissent exists.
There is a noticeable curiosity about the topic as users reference the publication for further insights.
The discussions range from brief comments on nutrient timing to detailed analyses of research findings, indicating moderate engagement.
Participants perceive the publication as significantly influencing the discourse on nutrient timing and muscle recovery.
Abstract in brief
- Nutrient timing focuses on consuming protein and carbohydrates around exercise sessions to enhance body composition and performance.
- The post-exercise period is seen as crucial for nutrient intake, which is believed to optimize muscle recovery and energy restoration.
- Recent research questions the significance of a 'window of opportunity' for nutrient timing, prompting a review of literature to provide evidence-based nutritional recommendations for post-exercise adaptations.

@Gymshark Implications discussed in our paper... https://t.co/0NIHnCX7d6
@AlyssaRDN IMHO, the evidence has not changed since the paper I co-authored with @TheAlanAragon. Certainly timing will matter, but the "window" is really more of a "barn door" that will depend on the proximity of consumption of protein preworkout https://t.co/0NIHnCX7d6
IMHO, the conclusions from the paper I co-authored with @TheAlanAragon on the topic over a decade ago remain applicable https://t.co/0NIHnCX7d6
Nutrient timing: "High-quality protein dosed at 0.4–0.5 g/kg of LBM at both pre- and post-exercise is a simple, relatively fail-safe general guideline that reflects the current evidence showing a maximal acute anabolic effect of 20–40g" https://t.co/1K3nMS8YJ3

@mansworldmag_ this has been studied and is complete nonsense. the anabolic window is not 2 hours, and general data indicates best results with both pre and post workout meals w/re protein intake and simply meeting carb needs over your day. 10.1186/1550-2783-10-5 https://t.co/YXhsBqx8KK

@D3NTYR @ThorvaldModahl @palrestad @10mill10ar «Nutrient timing revisited: is there a post exercise anabolic window?». Så stemmer det som guttene sier at ca to timer innen øktslutt er fint, dog skal det nok sies at dette mest sannsynlig ikke er superviktig for den gjengse mosjonist og treningsglade.
@Nooah_knc @man_anonymous @mrxeau @BennySimmons10 N'existe pas, ou pas celle que l'on croit. (Cf cette meta étude : https://t.co/hC2y1iePw2 qui est la plus grosse étude possible scientifiquement).
