Yes. You just grasped a concept many still will never understand, in just a few posts. However, you should continue to research and prove to yourself that this is true.
Unless you defy the laws of thermodynamics, yes you will be in an anabolic state. Your body chemistry (metabolism) will determine where that surplus goes.
Are you wondering about the macronutrients (protein, fats, carbs) or micros (vitamin/minerals)? Ill address the latter.
While I do not have articles to back for this, intuition tells me that they would be fairly similar (as long as fat is present for absorption of fat-soluble vitamins). Your...

Notice many of the studies are with rodents, but many are cross-analyzed with human studies. I bolded some noteworthy information too.

Here, Nehlig et. al. claim "The central nervous system does not seem to develop a great tolerance to the effects of caffeine although dependence and withdrawal symptoms are reported." Note: Caffeine is a methylxanthine

Did some quick research, and found a few interesting notes. The first is a review of articles and focuses on caffeine and exercise performance, but there is some good background info to take from it.

Agreed, however shouldn't we classify milk then as being a contributor to diseases such as diabetes, all other B.S. aside? While the glycemic index and load are low, regarding insulin milk acts similarly if a large amount of carbohydrates were consumed, calories aside. Basically what I am...
Don't you think that the lack for various controls is the underlying problem with current research? Well, I do...
I know many here are involved with current official research, as have I, but don't you think researchers need to dig a bit deeper? I see a gap between what is researched and what...
I bet your writing professor gave you negative marks for comma splices.

What IS/are your opinion(s) on the insulinogenic effects of milk?
Ritalin is a stimulant so it WILL increase heart rate through the release of norepinephrine, therefore in nature it is catabolic but not through direct processes. If you're already in a caloric deficit, you are in a catabolic state, so ritalin will further deepen your catabolic state. As a...
The training I am doing will not exactly be low-intensity, but definitely not high either. We will constantly be pushing 60-70%VO2max to increase our pace over time. So from what I understand, there will still be a decent amount of carb utilization, maybe 1/3 (Graph). That's kind of why I was...
A buddy of mine is training for a marathon that takes place in October and I'm going to try to train with him for as long as my body allows with less than 30g carbs/day, still lifting 3 days/ week. Been going for 2 weeks now on this schedule, did 6 miles (8:10 pace) yesterday and I felt great...
Do you drink coffee?
My experience has been that as long as I allow my body the appropriate amount of time to cool down from a workout, I have no trouble sleeping no matter the pre-workout supps.
