Dallas Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Have you considered bulking to get bigger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vege Posted February 14, 2011 Author Share Posted February 14, 2011 Have you considered bulking to get bigger?I try to bulk, but it is hard when you eat "clean". I reached 80 kg recently (started with 67 kg half year ago) and I wasn't much satisfied, since it was mostly fat, and my goal is not to get bigger at any cost, i want muscles. So, i decided not trying to bulk at all, just to exercise and make small gains little by little, and stay lean. I really enjoyed last week, eating only when I felt like, and predominantly fresh fruit (yes, I am one of those 811 fans ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vege Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/5531/dsc00014fyv.jpgI was eating predominantly raw fruits and veggies for the last 10 days. Feels great, and I also like the fact I lost some fat, so muscles are popping out a bit I am starting kettle bell course this week! Yeaaaah!

vege Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 nice work Vege looking strong - good to read about the Armstrong programme too!I am thinking about doing Armstrong and 811 this summer, and go to gym maybe 1 a week. Armstrong, combined with some goblet squats and push-ups, along with low fat raw diet is perfect program, I think. At least in summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vege Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Nice! 811 feels great in the summer!I joined your Ripped Raw Vegans Facebook page yesterday, and I really have to get back to 811 asap and post some pics of my future ripped body , too! Right now, I occasionally enjoy a day or two on 811, but as soon as some local fresh fruit come on market here, I'll be back. For now I am low fat, but 70-80 % cooked. No oils, just tahini and some nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vege Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 thank you, guys I think back is OK, but front part of the body is not so good I have to make that chest grow! At the moment I have two chest and two shoulders days in the week. It has been couple of weeks since I do not workout my back and legs (partially because I hurt my inner thigh during goblet squats). I discovered that I hit better my pecs when I do dumbbell press instead of bench press. And I started doing Gironda dips - they are great, but I can do only 6 reps (in 5 sets).I am really mad at my chest, most stubborn muscle group in my body Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penpen Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Sosso, your pictures were actually most inspiring! You really did a great job with your tighs and the rest of the body! My problem is that I get pains in one knee when I do too much squats. I guess Im beginning to get older:) Im 37:) I do leg extension, leg curl, leg press, seated and standing calf raises Yeah me too but multidirectional stretching and warm ups have helped me some. I think another problem might be maintaining a proper squating form... since you also need to balance using the same muscle. Or maybe it's just because it's a wide range of motion... in which case we would both benefit from simply pulsing in a low squat position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only do squats, DL and lunges now! I had pains before because my ligaments or joints were weak. Now I grew stronger and I have no pain in my knees at all. I LOVE SQUATTING NOW!

vege Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 Looking awesome dude! thanks, man I am not so excited about my gains, though. When I look at other guys in the gym, many of them made huge progress in one year compared to me. But I guess as vegan, limited food (no money for too much organic tofu, soy milk, quinoa - just old fashioned rice and beans), 38 years old, no supplements, etc. - this is the best you can get Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
