In your argument, are you saying that you don’t buy that this part tells the whole story:
quote:

the fact that muscle protein synthesis is maxed at 30g protein.


And that this part explains why it’s ok and won’t yield diminished results to eat, say, 80g in a sitting as opposed to 80g spread out?:

but what happens is your body slows absorption after that and your body keeps mps high longer.


My problem is more if I eat >50g in a sitting, I’ve got the runs within the hour. Does that mean I’m not getting the whole payload of the protein I consumed in that meal?

That is most likely waste that was already sitting in your digestive tract. Digestion will take a lot longer than 1 hour.

To answer your other part. Studies are now showing that you can absorb much more, especially after training.

I like Oikos Triple Zero greek yogurt. Tastes good and 15 grams of protein per serving.

for me have a consistent diet that you dont get bored of helps a lot.

the second thing is, for me, having two very large low cal high protein events during the day.

for me that's my breakfast and post workout shake
Yogurt (zero brand, 2 servings, 270 cals and 50 protein)
shake , 2 scoops, 260 cals 50 protein.

That leaves just another 100 to get through lunch, snacks, dinner and night time. which is quite manageable. since i kept my two big 50 protein events low cal i can play around with my other meals a lot more.

This is so spot on. This is where I ended up, basically. I add boiled eggs into the mix for breakfast.

If I can get 100 down under 600 calories I can have a monster day of eating and be totally satisfied while still being under maintenance.

This seems almost mathematically impossible unless you're only eating very fatty meat
