Yes BUT...
Fasting was never meant to build muscle, it is meant to burn fat, get leaner and healthier.
search for "intermittent fasting" and "muscle growth" in NCBI.
Basically, the obvious thing is when you are in the fed state the body prioritizes protein synthesis instead of breakdown. That's just how it is.
In the fasted state the body begins to prioritize nutrient mobilization, aka fat burning and protein breakdown for energy. This has some advantages like increased insulin sensitivity and reduced inflammation. But your body doesn't prioritize grow and build when fasted.
can confirm I could not gain weight even when I was trying when I did OMAD. no matter how much calories i consumed during my feeding window. might be diffirent for fatties tho
>doesn't understand how hormonal release follows circadian rhythm and feedings
enjoy blowing out your insulin sensitivity and never experiencing the benefits of endogenous HGH release
it's literally the same amount of protein you would eat in a day, compressed into an eating window
This board genuinely attracts some profound stupidity, but that's what you get when a bunch of mentally ill men with body dysmorphia congregate in one place
>some israeli drawing lines on a chart
wow what great data. you don't need to eat every 2 hours or whatever unless you're on gear and trying to squeeze out every little bit of it. i've done both and seen gains in both but feel way better and live easier not eating constantly
Kills me? I'll just adopt it to maximise my gains. You didn't think I would defend the lower intermittent fasting routine would you? I care about gains, not how i obtain them
>uber fatty living in the 50s wouldn't have wreaked havoc on his organs for years befpre losing the weight, it must've been the fasting that killed him
Arguably he would've died sooner if he stayed fat.
Link to a couple of research papers confirming this?
It's common sense
Please have a nice day you uneducated lack of oxyen.
It's common sense that cows have 8 legs
It's true because I said it's common sense
It's common sense that common sense is common sense tho.
>more meals allow you to eat more protein
Simple as
Why?
Normal people cannot fit 3 meals on their stomach
How much protein are we taking about? A kilo?
Depending on your size at least 150-170g of REAL COMPLETE PROTEIN WITH ALL ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS
I could eat 3000 calories and have room for more after like 5 hours
I know that feel, there is no solution, just learning to live with the hunger
The bodily rate and amount of protein you are capable of digesting and absorbing does not change with the number of meals you eat.

The benefit of fasting is that it reduces muscle breakdown compared to traditional cutting though.

i dont fast but im not gonna trust a garden gnome

The reason I did IF was to prevent insulin resistance so yeah

Is this the
>your body can only take in 30g protein per meal
thing?
Pretty sure that was started by a study that shows 30g of whey protein take 3 hours to absorb but the telephone game took off.
There's a limit to how much goes toward protein synthesis
>i take 100g of protein
>body only takes in 30g
>other 70g disappears into thin air
>am op
>am retarded
Eating your daily amount of protein and calories in a single meal is really difficult. Doing it while being in a surplus is damn near impossible.
Bit of milk, bit of egg and a desert. Plus your two scoops before and after.
Get on my level, charade.
>Bit of milk, bit of egg
Are you a skeleton? There's no way you're getting anywhere near high protein with just a bit of milk and egg.
Bit of ground beef, bit of chicken.
Bit of whey protein isolate, bit of whey protein concentrate
Bit of whey protein hydrolysate
What If I'm not obsessed with looking athletic and don't care about muscle that much
>TRUST THE SCIENCE
no
Who the fuck is anna bola and why do i keep hearing about her
She'll suck you dry.

>/fast
intermittent fasting isn't fasting, it's just eating less in a day. /fast/ is not eating for 2 or more days.
This bro fasting without protein whatsoever for a year and not lost all his muscle. So indeed fasting is muscle sparing.

If this is true in any case the difference will be splitting hairs. Rp is a steroid retard with no idea on what he speaks anyway
