That all depends on the excercises you are doing to produce muscle growth. It you are doing "active" excersises (running, swimming, rowing etc.) then a higher amount of carps will be better as this will provide the long term energy you need to maintain this type of excersise. If you are only doing "inactive" excersises (Weight lifting, tension cords, calastetics etc.) then a lower amount of carbs with higher amounts of protein would be more benificial to muscle growth.
Before changing or altering your diet you should speak to your doctor and a dietician about your goals. They will be able to tell you if the goals are attainable and if you will have any potential health problems along the way. They will also be able to keep you informed on your progress toward your goal.
