You seem to jumping subjects, or there was a slight miscommunication between us.
Anabolism and catabolism are ongoing processes, at an acute level. Those we cannot control.
The "catabolic state" that most purport is in regards to "losing" extreme amounts of muscle overnight, and the common myth to combat this is to ingest casein [a slow digesting protein] pre-bed. Fact of the matter is, as long as you are eating meals everyday, you are in an absorptive/postprandial state, negating any existential possibility of reaching the dreaded/mythological "catabolic state"
There is an abundance of data proving that nutrient timing is essentially useless. IIFYM
Yes I apologized for stating catabolic state in my first post. As you stated is takes days on end. Which I think I've read it actually takes around 40 hours for your glycogen be depleted. This is when severe protein breakdown occurs? So, I know you cannot loose muscle in that time frame of let say 12 hours.
I should of mentioned that in my second post. I was referring to catabolism which can happen anytime of the day or night.
I should of just said add Casein at night to gain a few extra pounds. lol
So, are you still saying catabolism cannot be effected by any exogenous source? Or am I missunderstanding what you are trying to convey?
