  • My understanding is that the anabolic window may or may not be a thing depending on the source, but with how digestion works, you can’t really line up the moment absorption with said window. I believe there are some studies out there showing that the timing of eating pre vs. post workout didn’t have a large impact on muscle gain as opposed to just making sure you’re getting enough calories and protein on a daily basis.





  • I’m not sure the USSR space race is the best example to use to make your point. The largely accepted reason as to why the US eventually beat them to the moon was that the NASA let a significantly more coordinated and efficient effort, combined with more robust and quality controlled manufacturing.

    The USSR program had a number of competing chief designers ultimately promising ambitious, but commonly uncompleted, projects. They were known for treating each project as a standalone, as opposed to efficiently using each project as a stepping stone towards achieving the next. Their space program was 100% limited by the systems they had in place.

    All in all, the “space race” was a marketing campaign on both sides to get the public to accept programs that honestly were too expensive for either side. After the whole moon race, both sides decided to change direction, got proper expectations in place, and ended up completing many other firsts that are a whole lot less sensationalized.






  • Surprisingly, yes. Filming on location and all the logistics that go along with that can balloon the cost real fast, especially for multiple locations. (Site fees, travel, talent costs, additional security, a separate crew unit, etc) CGI allows you to create different locations through green screen, which majorly cuts down on a lot of the scheduling/logistics. Sometimes green screen will be just a window, other times it will be literally the entire set.
