Who died and made you boss?

I'm going to blunt about this.  You don't get to tell your body when it gets to make muscle.  That crap about having forty-eight hours to build muscle through protein synthesis is conjecture.

The truth of the matter is you don't get to tell your body when you should grow your hair.  You don't decide when to breathe. So why the fark do you get to tell your body that it only has forty-eight hours to make muscle?  Why do you get to tell your body that it only needs .7 grams of protein per pound of lean muscle?

The fact of the matter is that strength training and muscle building follows a basic pattern:  you lift heavy weight and then you eat beef and rest and sleep then for your next workout you make gains.

That basic pattern could play itself out in a million different ways.  You could eat a ton of beef for two or four or only one day.  Then you sleep erratically for a couple days and if you're lucky you get one good night of sleep. Even though you're not following the unfounded half-truths that researchers and YouTube dumb arses are spewing from their mouths, I can almost gurantee you'll make gains.

The body is not that cut and dry. Just follow the basic pattern of muscle stimulation via you lifting heavy weight and then rest and repair through beef intake and sleep, and you should make gains over the long run.
