as FPOB said, you need it for the muscle repair. but also as he said, if you're looking for small gains, just clean up your diet and tilt it towards protein heavy--like, sub out some bread for nuts, etc
i guess...maybe you could use protein shakes and go kinda big on the weights. just do all your muscle gain pretty quick and afterwards only worry about maintenance hahaha. (no idea if this is a legit option, i just thought it'd be entertaining. maybe you want to do a science experiment!)
