Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness

Hey there hi there ho there....

I'm currently 13 weeks out from my first FAME PRO figure show. I still need a theme... we have to do this corny themewear routine. Previously I've been a referee and a matador.

Fall schedule:
Sept 22 Womens Tri-Fitness obstacle course and fitness skills only
Oct 6 SNBF ATL fitness model (basically prep for the other show)
Nov 3 FAME PRO figure
November 10-11 Womens Tri-Fit course, skills, bikini.
November 12 SoyCream eating contest followed by an oreo eating contest.

Goals: To drop about 15 pounds over this time period. To lean out my legs, round my delts and come in overall better condition.

Training today:
DB Push press 3X10@ 20's super set Reverse lunges 3X5 3X5 jump lunges 3X5 regular lunges

Incline DB Press 3X10@30 ss Lateral Raises 3X10 ss Step Downs (For glutes)

Hip bridge
3X10 with 25 pound DB

bfast: oatmeal with PP, natty peanut butter, dark baking cocoa. 1/4c blueberries Coffee with soymilk
1.5 liters of water with lemon so far
#2 baked tofu, grapes and mixed raw nuts
#3 PP mixed with unsweetened almond milk, 7 frozen strawberries and 1/4c blueberries

Fantastic picture! What is this PWO of which you write? I'm curious as well to know the cals and macros you consume in a typical day while leaning out and simultaneously rounding out your delts. I don't intend to compete, but I'd love to know how the vegan competitors here do it. I'll be doing more training journal browsing here! Good luck!

Good luck, Moxie. I wish I had an idea for your theme. Looking forward to more posts from you!

Happy SUnday!
This morning I met my dear friend (and fellow vegan!) for track/stadium work. TBH, my legs were still feeling like poo poo from yesterday.
In all, we did 6X100 meters with 100m recovery, about 2 laps jogging, 2 sets of stadiums:Running, lunging, walking, side squats, stairs.
My heart rate made it up to 173 and I burned about 575 calories in one hour.
Preworkout
meal #1: 1/4 c oats, 22grams Rice PP
PWO (post workout)
#2: 1 block light tofu, onions, baby portabellas, 1/2tbsp olive oil, turmeric, mrs.dash. 2 slices cin raisin ezekial toast, 5 strawberries.
I couldn't finsih #2, I am STUFFED! I'll finish it for #3 in about an hour

HI!
Actually, this is my first show as a vegan. THe avatar pic is from April 2006, when I was still eating meat.
My macros are pretty much 150g protein, 40g fat 150g carbs = 1700 calores. However, the numbers change as I get closer to stage(as do the cardio sessions!)

I've hired a coach to guide me (read:I don't have to think) through the critical final weeks. SHe's worked with vegans in the past with incredible results so I'm excited!

For me personally- my delts stay lean easily but I have to work hard rounding them so I continue to lift heavy with lower reps right up to show time.
THe legs....that's another story!

Thanks!
I thought of a theme last night- Go GO Dancer a la Austin Powers! Schwing!

I thought it was like the vegan version of EAS or MetRx...some type of protein powder that comes in kiwi flavor...

I have a vision of Moxie doing the elliptical outside when the air is clean...going down the bike lane and passing traffic in her avatar's outfit! Sorry, couldn't help but share. Great posting--keep up the good work, Moxie!

It's a standing shoulder press,made more explosive by adding a light bending of the knees.





I normally wear the sequined bikini when I'm sitting on the bike so it doesn't ride up! [/img]
