This Is Why You Don't Need to Stress about Protein Timing

We have two topics for you today. First out is a new meta-analysis examining the impact of timing your protein intake immediately before or after workouts. Does it matter? And if so, how big are the differences?

Then we tackle a topic a lot of you have been curious about: "Daniel is training weird."

Let's explain.

Daniel has been performing the big barbell lifts almost daily for over fifty days, and he feels stronger and in better shape than he has in a long time. He's also shared a lot about it on Instagram, and it seems you have questions.

What's his reasoning behind this experiment? How long does he plan to continue with it? What are the risks? Don't your muscles need 48 hours of recovery before being trained again? And how should you go about it if you want to try it?

Timestamps:

02:20 - Protein timing: Does it matter if you eat your protein immediately before or after your workout?
10:20 - Daniel's weird training routine: Easy Strength – daily full body workouts for over fifty days straight.
