these are parallel Pathways for for protein synthesis simply eating protein or training each independently increases protein synthesis
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
if you do the exact same study again and you just did strength training you would also see an improvement in protein synthesis right but those factors are independent and the mechanisms are independent such that if you do them both together they stack on top of each other which is really wonderful
if you were to add carbohydrate into that mix now you're actually adding fuel for the the entire M muscle protein synthesis process and now you're going to see even added benefits
the pathway from strength training or protein ingestion is going to go to the same nucleus it's going to activate a whole set of Gene Cascades that are going to tell you to to go through this entire process of protein synthesis
protein makes a very big difference you know following obviously um the training that that is necessary to stimulate muscle protein synthesis so i think those have to be coupled to some
um protein makes a very big difference you know following obviously the training that that is necessary to stimulate muscle protein synthesis I think those have to be coupled
besides that protein it's the exercise that makes you respond way more to the same or less amount of protein that you ingest
of course that effect is dwarfed by the effect of a training stimulus plus uh protein
