Introduction to a Vegan Diet For Muscle Building (0:54)

Before we look at the exact foods for a vegan muscle building diet, it’s important that you also make sure that you’re on the right muscle building training program to see the best muscle gains. So in this section, we’re going to give you some of the basics of a muscle-building training program.

How to Set Your Muscle Building Protein Target (2:26)

Whether you’re eating a plant-based meal plan or not, the first focus for a bodybuilding diet is to lock in your protein target. Proteins are the building blocks of muscle gains, and we recommend getting around 0.8g-1g of protein per pound of bodyweight daily. From this target, it will be much easier to work in your protein foods for the day, along with your carbs and fats. And this is especially important for a vegan bodybuilding diet as protein sources are a little more scarce.

How Many Meals To Eat Each Day (3:24)

As with any diet, there are a variety of ways that we can approach scheduling out your meals for the day, in terms of both timing and amount. As long as you’re hitting both your protein and calorie targets for the day, it really comes down to what is going to the most convenient for your schedule. As you’ll discover in this video, for a vegan muscle building diet, we recommend eating around 4 meals per day so you can spread out your protein intake.

Calorie Target for a Vegan Bodybuilding Diet (4:11)

Another important consideration for your vegan bodybuilding diet is, of course, determining your daily caloric intake. Because if you’re underrating, your muscle gains will suffer, and in this video, we will help you determine your daily calorie target for building muscle.

Meals for a Vegan Bodybuilding Diet (5:17)

Again, there’s a fair amount of variety here based upon your daily schedule, but to help get you started, we lay out a basic vegan meal based around the 4 meal setup that we discussed previously. In this section of the video, you’ll also discover some of the best vegan foods for a bodybuilding diet.

FAQ’s- Vegan Bodybuilding Diet (8:09)

In this section, you’ll discover answers to some of the most common questions and concerns when it comes to a vegan muscle building diet. You’ll discover whether or not the proteins from a vegan diet are equivalent to an omnivorous diet, how to supplement your nutrition with some of the key muscle-building nutrients that you might be missing out on, and whether or not soy will negatively impact your testosterone levels and muscle gains.

VEGAN... TIPS FOR NEW VEGANS...

Tips and Resources for New Vegans

It can be very confusing to a new vegan to know what to listen to. There are so many different types of vegan diets and opinions. The best places to find the right information often depends on the type of diet you want to be on, but the truth is there is a lot of good information too. The following resources will give you good information and keep you on the right track.

Forks Over Knives – This is a great website but it’s also a Movie that you can watch on Netflix and possibly Amazon that helps you understand a healthy vegan plant-based diet that will work for most people. Plus, they don’t use processed food and all the recipes are super simple and tasty.

Today there is barely any excuse not to be vegan. It’s healthy for you, healthy for the environment, and simple too. You don’t need fancy ingredients or special vitamins, and there is no such thing as carb combing to create complete proteins which have been debunked for some time. Just eat plants, and you’ll be fine.

Hang out with Anji and Ryan on a busy Saturday whilst they work on minimizing a wee bit. The duo travel to nearby port town, San Pedro, to deliver stuff at a hazardous materials drop off station -- where they run into an LA Fruitluck Meetup pal -- then mail out CDs at a historic art deco post office and grab a bite at a new raw vegan cafe. On the way back, they shop at a Cambodian market for mangoes, which Anji uses for some yummy fruit tacos. But wait, there's more! Check it all out and let us know what you think in the comments section. :)

Vegan influencer, Zhanna Samsonova, who ate only exotic fruits, shared a chilling message before she 'died of starvation' at age 39.

This month (actually last 12 weeks!) I've transitioned my diet to 100% vegan to see how I would feel and how it would affect my gym and overall health. Overall I'm excited to say the results have been fantastic and I'm definitely going to be continuing to be vegan.

If you are interested in trying veganism for health, ethical & environmental reasons I highly encourage it!

Do you ever feel like Orange County is so conservative they closed almost all of the recycling centers to ward of homeless people who love to recycle? Well I have to go to Mission Viejo to recycle. But at least there's a cool little cafe there called Higher Grounds and a lovely little hiking area with statues and bridges, a peace obelisk and an Earth Day monument.

It's Earth Day, and even though veganism is clearly the greatest thing you can do for the environment, one can always do more. And I'm not one to shirk my responsibilities.

Hiii my loves! Here's another what I eat in a day as a fully raw vegan & my current fitness routine. Working out regularly, meditating and practicing yoga have truly transformed my overall health! I hope this video inspires you eat more raw foods, move your body and become the best version of yourself.

Sending you lots of love,

How to be a vegan activist - My best advice

This speech was part of my 'Light up the world tour' Europe 2018 and was performed at a factory farm converted into a sanctuary in Berlin.

Sky News host Rowan Dean says we should all pay very close attention to this video of a vegetarian who's been training her dog to also be a vegetarian.

How and why I went vegan! Plus before and after pictures from my 30 lbs with loss (I'm 5'9" for those wondering why I don't quite look 30 pounds heavier in the before. I'm tall so when I gain weight, it's more evenly distributed but trust me, at the start of summer 2015 I weighted 168 and by the time I moved back to LA in October 2015 I weighed 138. I weigh bit more now, about 145 which is a healthy weight for my height...but more about that in tomorrow's video :)) So in this video I talk about losing the weight, why I went vegan, how I did it, and I share some tips for new vegans or anyone curious about trying a vegan diet.

I hope you find it helpful and realize that ANYONE can be vegan. I was soooo not a "typically vegan"type....I liked vegetables, but then again I liked all food! I could not imagine this would be a path I chose but it's honestly one of the best things I've ever done :)

If you have any questions, let me know in the comments! See you tomorrow!!
