Whether you are an elite athlete, or a recreational weightlifter who loves gymming as much as I do, we need to ensure your plant based diet is SUPPORTING your training and recovery. Of course, a diet situated on plants is incredible for our longevity, gut health, immune system, brain health, weight maintenance and disease prevention, but this isn't to say that simply being vegan is going to magically give you athletic performance powers or will magically improve your lifts in the gym. Because it wont. In today's podcast episode we cover everything you need to know about plant-based protein to support your training.
