Is the anabolic window real or meme? please respond

yeah but only within a margin of 25 minutes

If I'm running late or I was stuck in traffic and can't get home in time, I'll stop next to the road and do a few push ups so my body is confused, gives me another 10 minutes. If you don't make it after that window, you're pretty much fucked

Meme as fuck. Human beings are far more resilient creatures than given credit for.

It's a meme unless you're injecting insulin, which you're not.

There is an anabolic window so to speak it's just that it's open for about 48 hours.
Muscle synthesis will be increased for 2 days after you hit a particular muscle which is where some of the logic behind hitting each muscle group twice a week comes from

Part meme, part true.
Eating a meal soon after working out jump-starts a few hormonal processes, making you recover faster.
You won't recover MORE, you could eat your meal way later and still absorb and use the same amount of protein.
If you're lifting every day, have other shit to do as well, and want to be optimal in your habits, it can be a big deal. Otherwise, not so much.

Explain the meme to me, please.

Apologies for being this new, superior /fit/izens.
