question

Along with being vegan, I am gluten free, limit soy because of a hormonal issue, and can’t have artificial colors. I’m real fun. I was wondering if anybody had any good protein recommendations? As of now, I eat a lot of chickpea pasta and I use Huel protein powders sometimes. Those are pretty...

Is this a temporary thing? Anyone still have access to the sub?

I’ve received so many comments on how it’s impossible for vegans to get enough protein (or complete proteins) and that it’s impossible to get enough B12. What else have you heard? And how do you respond to it? My favorite is when a coworker told me it was impossible for me to get any complete...

I started a cut about 2 weeks ago and since then the scale has only gone up. I've searched this sub and online and I know that water retention is common in the beginning but it sounds like it only lasts a few days, I'm on day 15 with a steady increase in weight each day. I'm a 26 y/o female...

So I have been following the general advice of taking sets to failure (or close to failure) and doing a good amount of volume (20 sets per week) for my legs and glutes. But I am noticing I am sore when I take sets to (or close to) failure AND do 10 sets per leg day. I am not sore if I dont push...

hi guys! it is currently 35°C where i live (at 9pm lol) and i desperately need ideas on some refreshing but still high protein meals to eat when it’s this hot out! i already make chickpea salad (and other legume salad variations) and protein smoothies quite regularly, but i don’t really know...

Switching work schedules soon and am planning on being in the gym early. I don’t want to go in with no fuel but the idea of eating anything at 6-7AM makes me nauseous tbh. Are there any hearty/easily digestible foods I can use to get some fuel in me? I’ve heard some people say dates, maybe...

I’ve been going to the gym for about a month, and since I’m (M21) new to weightlifting and skinny, and I try to do full-body workouts 3-4 times a week (with rest days). However, by the time I’ve completed only half of my body, almost two hours has passed and I want to go home. Does anyone...

I only listen to Hardstyle for the last few months. I have always enjoyed a good bass. And I could never use in ear again once I had over ear headphones. I'm curious what you guys enjoy when working out. Link me a playlist if you think I might enjoy. Edit: i will try to check out as much of it...

Hey y'all, I've been drinking Vega shakes (e.g., the essentials) and while I love them, they're expensive. Do any of you make your own DIY concoctions? What are your recipes and where do you get your ingredients?

Lately I’ve been walking for 2-2.5 hours because it’s legit the best for mental relaxation. I have a break until my next semester at nursing school, and have gotten addicted to listening to podcasts. 🤣 Today I hit 8.9 miles but usually it’s more like 7-7.5 miles, 6-7 days per week.

I’m currently working on getting 80-90g protein per day, within 1300-1600 ish calories. I’m 5’3, currently 142.2lbs, and normally extremely sedentary. I’m working on running 3-5 days per week (can currently go a mile at 4.5mph), and light strength for arms, back, and legs with 10lb dumbbells (3...

I started creatine about a month ago and I'm wondering if there's any concrete proof to the timing of taking it? I've been having it in the morning because that's the most convenient for me (post breakfast) and I don't wanna bring the tub with me in my car (I work outside and bring all my food...

{I have two inquires within this post} 2 years & 2 months into being vegan & going to the gym and I’m 8 months into having a strength training routine—4 day UB, LB split. I’ve definitely gained muscle and got stronger but my big problem is the weight loss/ toning part lol I’ve lost a...

There are a few vegan fitness influencers I follow and some of them say: “Go ahead use protein powders and mock meats to get extra protein” And some say: “you only really need healthy whole foods, and you get enough protein by eating enough” I’m confused about the amount I really need for...

My boyfriend wanted to try vegan so we have been eating a chickpea curry for the past three days. I regularly run 2-3 times a week but have been adding 3 one hour swims in for a sprint triathlon training. Today I went for a run and it felt like something was sitting on my chest and my legs just...
