It looks like even Alan Aragon has finally come around and admitted that yes there is actually an anabolic window. Of course the anabolic window is only relevant if you haven't consumed a high protein meal within 3-4 hours before exercising, but many of us do not.

Many morons on this board have repeatedly pointed to studies done on professional power lifters (and/or similar populations) to argue that there is no anabolic window. What those morons failed to consider is that most professional power lifters eat massive amounts of protein frequently through out each and every day. Post exercise protein supplementation would obviously be redundant in that situation. Most recreational athletes do not eat like power lifters, therefore there is an anabolic window for us.
