I have been seeing a lot of talk about the benefits of slow digesting protein before bed. I am currently just having a normal dinner and then nothing until breakfast. Would adding a casein shake or some cottage cheese before sleep actually help me grow more?
I am in the middle of a very intense training block and I want to maximize my recovery. The idea is that casein provides a steady stream of amino acids throughout the night. It sounds logical, but I do not know if it is just supplement company marketing.
Do you guys have a pre bed protein ritual? Does it make a noticeable difference in how you feel the next day? I am looking for ways to squeeze every bit of progress out of this bulk and if a nighttime snack helps, I am all in.
