Oh don't give me that shit, you need oxygen before protein.Our winner
Well yeah!!!Lol...I didn't understand the question.
I read it as "What makes *YOU* grow?" I thought you were looking for everyone's #1 rule or something.
And in b4 everyone starts saying "eating all the protein in the world without exercise will not make you grow muscle"

Not quite.... protein is to broad of an answer.
Narrow it down.
Nope.You are failing to differentiate between complete, incomplete and protein quality.
In order to stimulate muscle protein synthesis you need to do either resistance exercises to failure or ingest high quality protein with around 3 grams of luecine. The only BCAA that signals mTOR is luecine and mTOR turns on MPS.
So if you use a low quality protein alone (with inferior BCAA profile)it may not cause hypertrophy, which is muscle growth
