Bodybuilders can be 12% fat and look ripped.
Also when you are dehydrated and then eat something sugary and have a drink .. your veins will pop out. (mine do .. at least in the legs..)
But I still believe that veganism helps your bloodflow .. even if the looks dont tell it all.
For sure. I mean drink some water and your veins will almost disappear.
I'm not a vegan but avoiding the heavy meat and dairy is IMO beneficial.
I tend to get protein from a shake or chicken (not anabolic )
I do eat a lot of veg
I would go vegan if i could but I always get the calling for a bacon sandwich or a burger
I understand you bro .. it is just inconvenient.
It was just meant to be an experiment at first.
But I just feel a lot better now.
And I am too competitive to give up an advantage
Yeah chicken and shake is easy to ramp up the Protein ... they also have lots of lysine, which is very rare to find in vegan foods.
The missing lysine is probably a big reason for the weight loss and catabolism or missing anabolism with being vegan.
I will have to find out what that means in the long run - maybe its bad - maybe not .. sometimes you just have to find out by yourself.
Don't peas have Lysine ? My wife is a vegetarian she just told me Lentils are a good for lysine. I'm not sure how many peas you would have to eat though
