So the end result is, after all of your trial and error, it seems like these refeeds are completely unnecessary?

I wonder if this is more broadly true. For the past ≈9 months I've tried to hit the 1g/lb FitnessBro mark ever day. On average, I've only hit 0.75g/lb.

Your post makes me wonder if the recommendations are way too high and if the body is much more efficient at recycling protein than physicians and scientists believe.

Regarding quantity & timing of protein intake, here's the latest newsletter from Dr. Michael Eades (Protein Power). That content starts at "Dietary Protein and Lean Body Mass."
