Glad to read this, I've been spending more time this year looking at diet and exercise and this speaks to how I have to look more at what I'm eating after the workout. Usually I eat a protein bar before going and then do a more normal breakfast after but might need to consider adding an extra egg, yogurt or even a protein shake after. I've been under the whole 25g of protein is all the body can use in a day impression but this does seem to suggest that after a workout the body will process more and for longer. Not really interested in adding real muscle, mostly just burning off fat, but this could make recoveries better.
