This is why it's so important. so important for students to read all the papers and organize them somehow. I'm sure you do this a different way than I do. This is the least interesting thing ever for people who are not scientists, but I can't pass this opportunity, right? You have these things in an Excel file. You have them and you have every variable you can in there.
And I promise you, you open that Excel sheet up and you will see massive patterns going on. Every breakthrough I've had, every great idea I've done scientifically has become possible because it's that exact thing. You notice a trend, you're like, oh my gosh, four studies, seven studies, nine studies.

And oftentimes it lines up and that's where you can actually see things that you will never be able to notice that in a single study. You have to have a command in the literature. So kudos to you and your doc student for doing that. And that's really interesting.

Yeah. Is this on a dynamometer too? So you're controlling? Yeah. This is a machine that's going to hook your legs up and force them. You can control the force output. So they can't.

While we're here, let me linger on this. I know you don't know the answer because you haven't done these studies yet. But if you were to guess right now, then for most people, if they're trying to get the performance benefits you talked about earlier, potentially the muscle growth, I know that the recovery didn't matter in this, let's say, frankly, pretty abnormal training protocol. Okay, fine.

Do you think it's going to matter if someone has not only protein type, whey or casein, or even food type? So if they have to have a protein shake, can they have cottage cheese or yogurt? What would you guess?

Our entire childhoods, we've been told casein is a slower-releasing one. That's the one to take before bed.
