Did chicken drum sticks today, they are only $3 per kilo at Coles, threw them in the Baby Q and went about doing other things, burned the crap out of them, so just ate the good bits left and had a cup a soup....not happy, and it's shopping day tomorrow, so nothing else to eat in the house, not even toast...

A new study suggests that increasing protein intake above 2.0 g/kg is not beneficial to enhance lean body mass restoration following short-term severe energy restriction.
Negative energy balance during military operations can be severe and result in significant reductions in fat-free mass. US marines underwent military training that causes a severe energy deficit and caused on average -3,1 kg FFM in 7 days.
After military training, the marines could eat as much as they want (ad libititum) for 27 days, but were randomized to a high protein diet (2.0 g/kg) or a very high protein diet (3.5 g/kg).
Both treatments restored their fat-free mass during the 27 d refeed period (+3,6 kg), but there was no difference between the treatments.
This may suggest that 2.0 g/kg is already enough for FFM restoration. However, it is also possible that the FFM loss was overestimated due to glycogen and associated water loss due to the intense training period.
agree. It's hardly new information. The information that the old 1g/lb is overshooting the mark has been out there for a fair while. But everyone wants to believe they are super special and need more protein bro.
