What are some benefits you guys have noticed about being a plant based athlete.

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...

Hey all, I’m a 5’9” male, 145lbs, “skinny fat” with some belly and face weight to lose, looking to gain muscle, mostly for posture/back issues. I have a solid 4-day workout routine, plus 5-6 mile hike every weekend. But diet’s challenging. I’m aiming for and usually getting 125g protein per...

Hi, after some time thinking about it, I have decided to go Vegan. My short story: I am a male 22 y/o from Madrid, Spain. During my whole life I have been training and i was a semi-professional athlete and training almost every day of my life for almost 8 years. I was kinda shocked after i was...

SOY CURLS! Where have I been?!? Been veg for over 20 years and just discovered these. Yummy! What’s everyone’s favorite way to use these? I just soaked for 10 min, squeezed out water, threw in a pan with some teriyaki sauce and boom… add to broccoli and rice. So good! Makes me wonder what else...

Hello! Looking for a multivitamin that has all the essentials that can be difficult to find in plant based food. I found a few that have the 7 essentials, but that’s all, so I’m looking for something that has a more complete profile…. Then on the other hand, I should be getting plenty of all the...

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 am a personal trainer with a Sport Sciences degree who became a vegan during its course. Had many jobs on the field but am currently working as freelance while enrolling on a masters in Health and Nutrition. Plant-based diets as a complement to scientific-based PA protocols has helped me...

Hello everyone, First things first: keep in mind I’m 158cm! This goes to the sporty ones.. I’m having a hard time to get to 120gr a day of protein as I find tempeh disgusting, I have a hard time to digest legumes, so what I’m left with is just tofu and seitan, which gets boring, needs a lot...

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...

Specifically, I’m looking for quality gloves and running shirts. Growing up, smartwool was my go-to for staying warm outside in the winter, and I’m finally getting into a consistent routine again and don’t want to lose it with the changing seasons. What do y’all recommend? What types of...

I’ve attempted and failed cuts in the past. I’ve definitely gained muscle but Id really like to get my weight down to something I can build up from. M28 250ish and 6’2. My life is F****d at the moment so I am going to lean into what I can control like food and lifting. Just curious if anyone...

My current daily routine is garbage. It's time to switch things up. A little background: I'm diagnosed ADHD, and haven't taken medication for 4 or 5 years now; opting to go the more holistic route more or less. The problem is that when my focus suffers, so does everything else! I tend to have...

Quick backstory. 38 male, 5 years vegan now and been running fora out 4,5 years. Before going vegan I wasn’t the sporty type. About 3 years back I hurt my right knee due to bad running form and psychological issues during that time. Took three months until i got back on the road to run outside...
