    Juicing

    I have seen this and it is amazing Freeze a few bananas...put them through the juicer, and it makes this thick creamy custard that tastes like ice cream! I was pretty amazed! -Nick
  2. weere you referring to the lowering sperm count/making you steril nonsense about soy? or something else?...while on the topic, what is your opinion on the sperm count issue?
  3. I eat alot of seitan-like stuff. I dont really like seitan but have an obsession with morningstar farms chickn strips. I use them for so much! I also eat alot of baked beans, or I make broccoli rabe w/kidney beans and garlic(which would count as spinach)(mmmmmmm). Tofu probably once a week, not too much though. TVP in chille, tacos, etc. I make alot of sandwiches like vegan chicken cheesesteaks and stuff. (That means lots of sandwich rolls also) and the sandwiches has the chicken, green pepper, onion, vegan mozerella, and vegan mayo on them. I have pasta alot also. I eat alot of vegan chicken patties, hmm, what else, its so hard to think because im so used to eating the same things, I take it for granted. I eat alot of fruit, and make strawberry smoothies, and vegan milkshakes a couple times a week. During training, I SOMETIMES have an energy gel, but not lately because th eone ive carried around is strawberry flavored and I hate that kind, so I havent really been looking forward to needing to use it.(Gotta get to the shop and buy some chocolate ones!mmmmmmmm) I have tomato pie every once in awhile, and also whenever Im over my girlfriends and we order something I get a cold veggie hoagie. Just lettuce, onion, cucumber,roasted peppers,carrots,celery, hot peppers, ETC., with honey mustard, or vinegar and oil. (Im one of those vegans that doesnt mind eating honey...sorry if that dissapoints you) . Also sometimes I throw some Texas Burgers on the grill. Ill think more about what I eat regularly and get back to ya. Let me know what you think. My schedule is like this. Monday, work, and spin if I have the time, depending on my shift Tuesday, Eat, Spin Early on, at 6, I do an intense 40 mile interval ride with some cat 1/2 riders (and take into consideration that this is my last season as a junior racer, so to hang with these guys is pretty respectable if you ask me). Wed- depending on my shift, I usually spin a bit to flush my legs Thurs-Spin, eat, Criterium Training Race, (I warmup a good...45 minutes, doing mostly spinning and a couple hard efforts so I dont have a partial- bonk after the first 10 laps) Friday-Spin to flush the legs, depending on my shift, blah blah blah Saturday, I usually depending on work take a nice little ride if Im feeling like it, but it depends on what I have planned for sunday. Sunday- either a race, or I do a 55mile ride.
  4. then isnt so much mileage overkill to the point where it wont make that much of a difference between 150 and 350 a week? I mean, I know base mileage is important, but whats the point? I usually recover on the days in between... and how does one have that much time on his/her hands?
  5. veganpotter, 350 miles a week is a little hard to believe. Some pro's dont even train with 350m/week under their belts. Most ameteur racers that I know are 130-150(max) a week. sure you didnt make a typo?
  6. another road cyclist here. I race for TristateVelo/Amorosos Cycling Team out of Philadelphia, PA. Im on this site looking for more info on how to better feed myself for the intense training rides and races that I do. I feel like I need more recipes and protein in general. I put in around 120 miles a week if im feeling good, but no matter what Tuesdays I do a training ride that is just tottally BRUTAL, its an interval ride, 40 miles, holding 33ish mph for around, 7 miles at a time, then we slow it down, recover, then go at it again. Thursdays I do a training criterium that is pretty intense also. Anyone have any protein packed recipes that would be good for my racing and training. -nick
