Is David Boreanez veg? I want to know.. apparently you don't have to be to pose for Peta but if he is he should definitely be on the list. There are other celebs I think should be on the sexiest list as well.

ooohhh oohhh can you do me too?

I first heard of this YEARS ago on a vegetarian forum.. I got the impression that this was just some sort of rumor/urban legend going around the internet for anyone stupid enough to believe it was a possibility. Looks like it is a real possibility now. I would never want to eat vat-grown meat but I suppose it would reduce suffering if taken up by corporate meat giants instead of factory farming.

Me either it was this one that broke http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/veganbodybuilding/vwp?.dir=/Renee+B+Carroll&.src=gr&.dnm=28Jan04_abs_photo.jpg&.view=t&.done=http%3a//photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/veganbodybuilding/lst%3f%26.dir=/Renee%2bB%2bCarroll%26.src=gr%26.view=t I kind of like the everlast sports bras.. but my chest size has increased quite a bit since I got that bra.. that is good lots of bench presses went into that:) but some of it is fat weight gain its not ALL muscle. I'm moving more toward this style of bra rather than the underwire support kind http://www.championcatalog.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce/ProductDisplay?prnbr=CH2149&cgnbr=2061000000 if anybody cares.. I know its not relavent to the MALE readers.

That is awesome - Congratulations on the PR. I have days like that where you just have to do something else besides what is on the plan.

I lost 2 more pounds when I weighed today. Since I stopped trying to diet. I had a weak ass workout today. I had a real long day. The program my daughter is supposed to be enrolled in this fall (starting in about 2 weeks) has just been canceled for the semester. So it'll be next semester before she gets to start it. So there is really nothing available for her to do besides group class (she's been taking 2 levels together) so she's not really at a place to start a new 'group' class. She'd either be below the other kids and not able to keep up or ahead of the other kids and bored out her mind and not learn anything. We had the latter problem before. And her other option is she could take stroking as a semi-private lesson rather than a group class. A new thing they are starting so that stroking class doesn't get the whole ice. And that may or may not be offered at a convient time. ah today's workout Lying Hamstring curls 3 x 10 x 60# DB SA Bicep Curls 3 x 8/10/6 x 30/25/30# (I was really struggling with the 30s today they felt so heavy - I may add a 4th workout to just come in and hit all over so that I don't go a full week without hitting the muscles.

I knew they are vegan now.. people made a big deal about not having vegan chicken patties when health is wealth (I believed) changed so I think some veggie companies took note

where are we on this chart micheal? I have a large frame and on the high end of the charts for my height.. but still on the charts (that is if that is naked weight anyway)

Used light weights and didn't write down. Even did Tpushups with 8 # weights:) When I get back strong again I'll start doing some of those regularly. If anyone cares - my biceps are up to 13 7/8" - almost 14 inches.

Can you post what you do? weight? sets? reps? and what exercises?

oohh.. I bet I hurt tomorrow. Okay so this weekend I read one of Mike Mahler's articles about gaining leg size.. can't remember the name of it. Decided I'd like to try to do his zone stuff. Didn't to the timed zone stuff tonight - may do that soon but incorporated some of the exercises in tonights workout. Then after I left the gym I went by the track and ran 2 miles slow - then walked 400m to cool down. Want to work up to doing 2.5 miles worth of sprints at the track to train for Pump'N'Run competition next month.. BB Squat 3 x 10 x 145# DB Squat 3 x 10 x 30# Dumbbell Swings 3 x 25/16/24 x 15# (did the stop when I got tired on each set with this exercise - made me want me a kettleball though ) Calf Press 3 x 12 x 200# Lat Pull 3 x 10 x 90# Upright Row 2 x 10 x 20# Seated Row 2 x 10 x 80# Lateral Raises 2 x 10 x 15# Shrugs 2 x 10 x 55#

I don't fruitarians cook their fruit, seeds, nuts... And I don't think vegetables suffer. But I like the theory of fruitarians - at least in the sense that if there ARE people out there surviving off of fruit, seeds, and nuts then I don't have to worry so much that my daughter only eats about a half dozen vegetables - well at least she is eating fruits, grains, and legumes.

Fruitarians live off of fruit, nuts and seeds. Pretty much the same as raw except for no vegetables.

I have a new workout partner. Hopefully that will go well.. I have a feeling he thinks I am going to be EASY on him. I guess we shall see. I'm going to make a few changes to my workout to make it a 3 day workout. I'm going to add quads to my back day and triceps to my chest day.

Anybody else reading or have read "Meat Market"? Yes I know Michael Hobson is...

Hey Rob, I'm with the WOW that's your dad group too. That must be really great that your dad is quoted so much in Animal Rights stuff. Renee

I love me some papa johns. got to just STOP eating pizza though. I'm gaining too much weight. Yes muscle too.. but I HATE seeing the scales go up.

You can get vegan pizza from papa johns.

that really sucks.. I've never seen a 'vegetarian' section on a Chinese menu before but I've seen dishes that 'look' vegan tofu/eggplant/broccoli type dishes and I ask about what is in the dish - and then get white rice instead of fried rice. The Chinese restaurant I frequent most is next to the vegetarian restaurant so they've been really accomodating. so when is Josie joining the boards?

Went to track ran 800 meters, walked 200 meters, ran 800 meters, walked 200 meters, ran 800 meters walked 400 meters. Total 1.5 miles running and 1/2 mile walking. Then went to the gym....
