Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness

Hi,

I read about you in The New York Times, and would like to try your method to get fit.
I am 48 years old, weight 280 pounds, height 5'9", and have access to Bikram Yoga and a gym with a lot of cardio and weight training equipment. All advice is welcome. Thanks.

Hi John! Welcome to the forum! There are soooo many people here in this community with such a huge wealth of information! And all different types of athletes, not just bodybuilders. Runners, yoga-practicers, triathletes, etc. And lots of here looking to lose weight and get more fit and healthy!

If you're just giving veganism a try for the first time, I would strongly suggest you watch the film "Forks Over Knives". It's impacted so many people's lives with its scientific information proving the health benefits of a whole-foods plant-based diet. It's incredible!

Take a look around, see what people here are posting about, read what interests you, and let me (or anyone!) know if you need help with something specific!

All the best!
