Hey jcdenton thanks for the response, my goals are more like losing bodyfat but not going all skinny, i mean, losing the extra bodyfat and at the same time try to gain a little bit of muscle, not too much, just like to stay healthy and stay fit. on of my biggest goals its to prove that vegans are not all skinny and without a great, fit, healthy body, there´s a lot of sterotypes down here in mexico (I imagine that in the USA too, but not as much in mexico) with being vegetarian, now imagine how people react when you tell that you don´t eat any dairy, eggs nor animal products I used to be amm well kind of a chubby guy and when i became vegan i loss a lot of weight but i get all that amm i dont know how to say it, i guess all that extra skin jaja for lack of a better word, i really want to get rid of that extra skin what can you recommend? Thanks bro

Wouh! thank you so much for the quick answers! i´ve read the articles you guys gave me, (jcdenton and beforewisdom) very interesting, i think i will finish the protein jar i already have and try pea/hemp or brown rice protein, just to change my protein sources. jcdenton, the current program im doing its kind of like this Everyday i do cardio (20 min on bike and 20 min jogging) Monday - 20 min on bike, chest (i do 4 different exercises), 15-20 min jogging and abs. Tuesday - 20 on bike , tricep (4 different exercises), 15-20 min jogging. Wednesday - 20 on bike, shoulder (4 ex), 15-20 min jogging and abs Thursday- 20 on bike, bicep (4 ex), 15-20 min jogging. Friday - 20 on bike, back (4 ex) 15-20 jogging and abs (i got to be honest, sometimes i don´t go on Saturday but when i go is like this) Saturday - 10-15 min on bike and i work out my legs and i rest on Sundays That´s pretty much my routine! Also if you think im doing something wrong or how can i improve my routine let me know Saludos

Hi! This is my first post i've ever done in this forum, i try to find one post that already answer my question but i didn't found it so i thought you can help me I've a vegan for about 5 years now and i'm starting to make some exercise (i didn't make any exercise at all : ), im doing cardio everyday and lifting some weights! (e.i. on mondays i work out chest, tuesday tricep and so on) i started to drink soy protein shake but i've read, like a lot of us, that eating too much soy may interfer with the estrogen that male naturally produce. I do eat tofu, soybeans, TVP (im from Mexico and TVP is very cheap down here) and i want to know if its better to cut off the soy protein shake and take other shake?, like pea protein (tough i've read wonderful things about pea protein) And also if i continue to drink the soy shake what could be like the side effects? Thank you so much for takin your time and sorry if i misspelled some words! Greetings from Mexico amigos
