    You don't need protein to build muscle per se....

    AMINO ACIDS build muscle, protein is just the middle man...

    If you can ingest enough food that will (combined) cotain a complete amino acid profile for your body to use then you will build muscle.

    Lots of vegan bodybuilders out there, some really big too.

    You do realize amino acids ARE what protein is made of right??? Not to be rude but your comment makes zero sense.
