Some that we looked at 25 and 25 and 40 weren't all that much different from each other. Although I do think I've listened enough to like Don Lehman, these guys, I don't know that protein should be a percentage. It should probably always be a grams per kg and then just set that as your anchor for your meal planning and then work around it.

Yeah, that's probably where we are at the state of it. And I would say that's the first third of the story.

I think to summarize that first bit like you just did, I think everybody would agree that we should think of it as another opportunity for a protein feeding. In an athletic context, we've got to remember that sometimes pre-sleep feeding isn't just a luxury, it's a requirement.

And that's what's missed. And I see a lot of times, you know, I'll comment on these if I ever see them, but it's like, don't eat before bed. Even still, you're getting it because it compromises sleep. And we'll talk about that in a little while. Yeah. There's so much context and there's so many nuances that are needed to say that.

And then you have to do something afterwards, and then you're going to bed. So, yeah, so there's like that general context. I think the other piece of this that we started noticing over time, and we haven't even talked about it yet, were performance outcomes.
