This study found that 20-40g of protein post-workout was more effective than 0 or 10g at increasing protein synthesis in trained individuals. If gaining muscle mass is your goal, adequate protein intake is incredibly important - consuming less than optimal amounts of protein can impair your muscle gains. Larger and more trained individuals may benefit from the higher end of the 20-40g spectrum, especially when considering long term gains.

I wish they would do a double blind study on well trained individuals on the difference of peri-workout protein ( with and/ or without carbs) vs. post workout protein.

I think the problem may be finding well trained individual who don't already incorporate this in their normal routine ( either peri-workout or after workout nutrition).
