As someone who uses pre workout (injectable) orals my understanding / intended goal is for anticatabolism and improved performance on those lagging body part days, with the recovery aspect (daily calorie / protein targets, adequate sleep, etc) determining whether or not there is any growth. I also do not like running orals daily for growth. I’ll run anavar daily on a cut and Winstrol daily, but for very short periods as the goals are different (mostly aesthetics). So yes I do think that preworkout oral like SD or AD can lead to growth, but indirectly (through driving increased performance in the gym and being anticatabolic during the session). I don’t see them promoting meaningful protein synthesis on their own given the limited exposure / area under the curve (half life 8-9 hours for most). The long acting injectables being used can perform that function.
