mikkah1987 Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Hi James! Since transitioning to vegan 3 months ago…I no longer eat honey… I switched to agave nectar (100% pure sweetener) I use in my hot & cold cereals & hot tea… Maybe you can give it a try!

xxJRHxx Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hey man welcome I like your routine, simple and has the best strength exercises in there Thanks! I try to go straight to the large muscle groups because they release the growth hormones and they also require the most calories to heal. I LOVE EATING LOL, so I impact the larger groups so I can consume more food (I know this sounds crazy but it works well for me ) I am looking forward to hearing more from you!
