Δεν ξερω πως μου ξεφυγε η συγκεκριμενη μελετη, η οποια εχει ως συμπερασμα οτι η καταναλωση σκονης πρωτεινης πριν τον υπνο αντιπροσωπευει μια εξαιρετικη διατροφικη στρατηγικη για την αυξηση μυικης μαζας και δυναμης σε συνδυασμο με προπονησεις αντιστασεων σε νεαρους αντρες.
Η ερευνα χωρισε τους συμμετεχοντες σε 2 γκρουπ. Το 1ο γκρουπ λαμβανε ροφημα με 27.5γρ πρωτεινης & 15γρ υδατανθρακα πριν τον υπνο και το 2ο γκρουπ ενα απλο ροφημα χωρις θερμιδες. Τα αποτελεσματα: Στο γκρουπ που λαμβανε το ροφημα πρωτεινης η μυικη δυναμη αυξηθηκε περισσοτερο και παραλληλα αυξηθηκε και ο μετρησιμος μυικος ογκος του τετρακεφαλου.
Το ροφημα περιλαμβανε 50% micellar casein και 50% hydrolyzed casein, οποτε μιλαμε για καζεϊνη και οχι whey.

BACKGROUND:
It has been demonstrated that protein ingestion before sleep increases muscle protein synthesis rates during overnight recovery from an exercise bout. However, it remains to be established whether dietary protein ingestion before sleep can effectively augment the muscle adaptive response to resistance-type exercise training.
OBJECTIVE:
Here we assessed the impact of dietary protein supplementation before sleep on muscle mass and strength gains during resistance-type exercise training.
METHODS:
Forty-four young men (22 ± 1 y) were randomly assigned to a progressive, 12-wk resistance exercise training program. One group consumed a protein supplement containing 27.5 g of protein, 15 g of carbohydrate, and 0.1 g of fat every night before sleep. The other group received a noncaloric placebo. Muscle hypertrophy was assessed on a whole-body (dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry), limb (computed tomography scan), and muscle fiber (muscle biopsy specimen) level before and after exercise training. Strength was assessed regularly by 1-repetition maximum strength testing.
RESULTS:
Muscle strength increased after resistance exercise training to a significantly greater extent in the protein-supplemented (PRO) group than in the placebo-supplemented (PLA) group (+164 ± 11 kg and +130 ± 9 kg, respectively; P < 0.001). In addition, quadriceps muscle cross-sectional area increased in both groups over time (P < 0.001), with a greater increase in the PRO group than in the PLA group (+8.4 ± 1.1 cm(2) vs. +4.8 ± 0.8 cm(2), respectively; P < 0.05). Both type I and type II muscle fiber size increased after exercise training (P < 0.001), with a greater increase in type II muscle fiber size in the PRO group (+2319 ± 368 μm(2)) than in the PLA group (+1017 ± 353 μm(2); P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION:
Protein ingestion before sleep represents an effective dietary strategy to augment muscle mass and strength gains during resistance exercise training in young men. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02222415.
