jsalem978 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Hey all! Looking to dive head first into some real strength training. I've been vegan for about 2 years now. I didn't have much weight to lose before going vegan, I was about 120 lbs. Now I'm down to an embarrassing 102 lbs. I stand a modest 5'6" and I'm 20 years old. I love being vegan but I do not feel comfortable at this weight. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated, seeing as I'm a newbie to the strength training game, although I'm a very active person. Thanks all!Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.O. Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 You need to eat Joe, eat! 102, you sound like a long distance runner from Zimbabwe. Pack yourself some snacks to eat between meals, something with calories. Nuts and seeds, nut and seed butters are good additions to snacks. Welcome to the forum man, browse the training journals, not mine I dont provide good details, which is funny because I do meal planning for people. But a lot of people keep track of every thing they eat so there are some ideas to steal for yourself if you look around. -Dylan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsalem978 Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 I eat a lot! I'm going to continue doing so, though. Even more. Renewed my gym membership, gonna go tomorrow morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.O. Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Awesome! Sounds like a plan. I'll tell you I thought I ate a lot, and when you realize how much people eat that are training to pack on weight its unreal. Be smart about it though, don't gorge yourself.
