You might be hitting your protein target — and still leaving results on the table.
Total daily protein matters. But when you eat it across the day matters almost as much.
Research is clear: spreading protein across 3–4 meals of 30g+ each triggers significantly more muscle protein synthesis than eating the same total in one or two big sittings. Your muscles can only use so much at once — then they reset.
So how's your protein actually distributed across the day?
Drop your answer below 👇 — and tell me where the weak spot usually is. Breakfast? Lunch on the go? I'll share what I'd fix first.
(Full breakdown dropping on YouTube this week — I'll put the link in comments when it's live)
Spread pretty evenly — 3 or 4 solid meals
Front-loaded (big breakfast, lighter dinner)
Back-loaded (light during the day, big dinner)
Honestly varies — no real pattern
