This is a video about Jorn Trommelen's recent paper: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38118410/

The gist of it is that they compared 25g protein meals vs 100g protein meals, and while you do use less of it for muscle protein synthesis at that quantity, it's a very minor difference. So the old adage still holds: Protein quantity is much more important than timing.

While we're at it, I'd also like to share an older but very comprehensive overview of protein intake by the same author: https://www.strongerbyscience.com/athlete-protein-intake/
