Protein-pacing

Protein-pacing has been studied in 1 paper since 2016: 1 trial in people. The newest paper, Oct 15, 2016: “Multi-modal exercise training and protein-pacing enhances physical performance adaptations independent of growth hormone and BDNF but may be dependent on IGF-1 in exercise-trained men”.
