I found that I can put a lot more effort into my workouts if I eat before them!

Nice last bench set Chewy! I am jealous.

Hey everyone. I was wondering, are there any other vegans on this forum that live on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia?

Hey Aussie Scott, welcome! I hope to drop by one of these days as I live I australia! Your place looks wonderful by the way!

I found that when I used to be vegetarian dairy protein made me a deadly 'Gas Bag' simply put. When I stopped with the dairy it instantly went away. I think it has something to do with the lactose in the milk as well as the actual proteins (casein and whey).

Nice workout imo!

Thanks. Yeah I already have egg substitutes etc, but my mother just doesn't like the fact I am vegan. She has heard more bad about soy products etc throughout her life than good and my sister showing her research stating soy letchin attacks the brain didn't help either. Howwever, i will try to get her to watch forkss over knives as i own it but my mother is pretty set in heer beliefs and I am not 1005 sure eit will convince her of my decisions. It is definately worth an attempt though! Thanks again

Mee too! By the way while i am here, I have been meaning to ask you vege, How are your traps going?

Congrats on finishing the 12 week plan!

Tonight my mother, sister and I ordereed Nepali/Indian for dinner. I had Yellow Dal Fry (ordered Extre Extra Hot), I actually told the chef to go crazy with chilli I just have a quick question; is it bad that I am sort of turning my routine into German Volume training? One more question; I am thinking of upping my oatmeal in the morningg from 100g (measured dry) to 150 or 200g, is this too much in your opinion?

Cool thanks, good idea!

(I guess this means I hit them hard enough for the day). Today I also did 4 hours of sweeping, mopping etc so I think that this burned quite a few calories I'm definately going to eat a lot tonight

Mabye try sprouted mung beans, they seemed to work for Giacomo Marchese! other things like soaked almonds etc, healthy fats boost your testosterone and in turn boost muscle gains.

Nice Work!

Today: Chest/ a bit of triceps (In Kilograms) Barbell Bench Press: 50.0 x 12, 55.0 x 9, 60.0 X 11, 65.0 x 5 Barbell Incline Press: 50.0 x 12, 50.0 x 5, 55.0 x 7 Dips: 10.0 x 14 Bent Arm Dumbbell Pullovers: 18.0 x 12, 18.0 x 12 Note: I Should have done another set of incline Press as it was a pretty pathetic lifting-weight for a person of my height.

If you're going to have processed soy the best form of it is Tempeh; as when the soy is fermented all the toxins are deactivated in the product making it extremely safe to eat. Hence why all of the asians used to ferment it for thousands of years. But processed foods arent overly bad 'on occasion'. Just stick to "Everything in moderation" and you will be fine!

For cheap priced weight plates and sets etc. places like Big W, K-Mart will do the job! Or even on Ebay, however be careful as there are some scammers online and also they will try and sting you with the shipping/postage costs.
