Front-loading protein in the morning and then at night is best for building/maintaining muscle.
Eating many small meals throughout the day or time restricted eating is not ideal for muscle growth.

I live in an area with the most reported Bigfoot sightings and where they’re discovering the largest known mushrooms/living organisms in the world with greater frequency.
A 10 ft ape doesn’t seem all that crazy when you have 1500-2200 acre mushrooms.
Protein quality and bioavailability:
Animal protein: 95%+ digestion absorption
Plant protein: 40 to 60% digestion absorption
Muscle is not only important to strength and fitness, it’s also key to your metabolic health.
Well-functioning muscles act as the largest sink for glucose. 75-80% of the body’s glucose storage capacity exists in the skeletal muscle.

If you’re just starting out in the gym consuming protein within a few hour window after a workout is important.
If you’re well-trained then protein timing becomes less important. Focus instead on total protein, protein quality, and not exceeding the metabolizable amount (by your muscles) in each sitting.
When you first start running, keep your heart rate below 180 minus your age. If your heart rate exceeds that while running, walk or do a combination run/walk until you can sustain a run in that zone.
If you’re in your 60s and in relatively good health you should not try to lose weight. Any weight lost will inevitably include lean tissue mass which you won’t be able to get back. Focus instead on building and maintaining muscle.
Muscle = longevity
As you age into your 40’s+ your focus at the gym should not be on setting new lifting PRs but instead building/maintaining muscle while avoiding injury.
Injury -> losing the ability to exercise -> loss of lean tissue.
Lean tissue loss accelerates with age and gets increasingly difficult to gain back.
Your goal at the gym should be on building muscle and strength instead of burning calories.
