So we didn't see, I wish we would have had more subjective questions in those areas, but that what I would say, it was just hard for those people to hit their numbers.

Most of them got there, but they're just like, whoa.

I just wish I had another hour.

Like, give me another two hours.

Could I get 50 grams of this protein a little bit earlier?

That'd make my life so much easier.

So I just think from a practical perspective, it was harder for them to follow.

It was harder for them to hit their numbers waiting the whole day than to start and hit it in a caloric surplus.

So if you're not in a caloric surplus,

Different equation here.

If you're on a caloric deficit, different equation here.

But for people that are pre-trained, pretty well-trained, and they're actively trying to get bigger and stronger, it wouldn't be the first approach I would take.

But it's still plausible.

Clearly it worked.

They still got benefits from it.

But switching the order, I think, would be cool.

I don't think it would have gained as much.

They would have gained some, right?

If you look at like, again, all grants work and a lot of that hypochloric state stuff, sometimes they gain muscle.

It can happen, but can they gain it at the same rate as when you add more calories?
