Its experience,not opinion im putting forward here.Only a student would raise such a baseless query!The degree in registered Sport and Exercise Nutrition (RSENutr) that i obtained from the University of London in 1997 is where i have that experience from and the evidence is plain to see in the man in the avatar to your left.
All macronutrients build muscle in one way or another, whether by stimulating direct protein synthesis, maintaining the fed state, or providing substrate for various hormones/etc. Granted, under normal conditions the glycemic index of a carbohydrate will affect the stability of blood glucose, however you have failed to highlight the significance of the effects of exercise (given you are discussing pre-workout nutrition).

If you start taking personal digs at me, either by having a tantrum rather than a genuine discussion, or attempting to read into my personal history (I am not even a student anymore), I assure you that you will be the one who ends up looking like an idiot. You brag about some degree that you have, but fail to display decent spelling/grammar, or understanding of research and referencing. Any idiot with good genetics can have a great physique, so quit thumping your chest, and justify your opinions properly.
