Actually about to start a strength workout having eaten nothing but tofu and lentils for protein. ๐ฑ I'll probably die tbh
I'm imagining every strenuous lift resulting in a toot!
๐๐จ
FWIW I have achieved higher levels of gym strength as a vegan than I ever did as a carnivore.
What are your preferred protein sources?
My main source of protein is definitely tofu. Most days I eat around 500 grams in various dishes. I also eat other beans and lentils, although amounts vary week by week. When I use protein powder I like to mix pea protein with brown rice protein. Pea protein has a different balance of amino acids compared to soy, but alone tends to be hard on my stomach. Hence, the mixture.
Oh interesting. My workouts are pretty standard, but I do sometimes ponder moving to heavy weights.
๐ Have extra lentils as a precaution!
