Can a vegan diet make me strong. Let's find out.

Another sucky day for me. No squats until I sort out my mobilizations.
Running on five hours sleep sucks. Gonna have a nap and go back later.

Squat - 0kg 0x0
Bench Press - 75kg 5x5
Rows - 60kg 5x5

Spent £12 on bananas today, couldn't stop laughing when I overheard the cashier saying "how much did that guy just spend on bananas!?"
 
Lulz junk food? Full natty brah!

Well being tall I need more calories so I'm looking to add around 40 bananas every day to up my calories. That's 4800 calories pimped. I just can't stop burning more calories than I eat.

I've got a 2KG bucket of peanut butter too for dipping bananas in, this is 100% natty organic stuff so it's not as thick as storebought but it's better for dipping.

Currently at 83kg.
 
Of course he's lying, it's Nate, he does that. I'm sure eating that many bananas a day is going to end up in an overload of potassium, which would bring on all kinds of body problems. The guy is full on BS'ing these forums and I don't know why anyone bothers to entertain him. I mean christ, no one called him out on the benching stats? Gone from struggling to bench 50kg in June, to "throwing up and catching" almost 80kg, when he has barely been lifting and his diet is laughable?

Don't know why anyone bothers reading this pure work of fiction, guy is a fantasist.

LOL I get that question A LOT.

Here's the funny thing if you look up on Google the lethal dose of potassium, they use potassium chloride intravenously for the injection. So orally I'd have to consume 2500mg of potassium chloride to get the lethal effect. So for me, 83KG we're talking 207g of potassium.

the average large banana has about 400mg of potassium. I would have to eat around 500 of these bananas in ONE hit, just one mouthful. 500 bananas... In one go, it has to be one go or overtime your kidneys excrete the excess potassium. So I'd have to get 500 bananas, blend em up, that's like 7 gallons of banana smoothie. I'd have to consume that in under 30 seconds to get a potassium overdose!

My PB is 62 bananas in one day. I don't know anyone else that eats that many in one day so I'd be dead right? Everyone would be dead who eats a lot of bananas lol

So you've eaten nearly 9lbs of bananas in one go?
Physically impossible.

Yep but not in one go, over the course of the day. I usually have six for breakfast and 20-30 in a smoothie. This was just for fun to see how many I could physically eat, I blended 40 of them up for a smoothie, drank it straight out the jug.

MoNkeE - Only person lying here is you, I wrote 50kg euro training! 80kg is my PB.

You said you ate 30 in one hit, working on your 136g average that's just under 9lbs of bananas in one go.
No, no you didn't
 
I'm making a 20 banana smoothie today. It's about a 7lb meal. About 600-700 carbs, <10g fat.

About 500ml of fresh water.
Protip if you're using tap water leave it out for a few hours or overnight in a bottle and the chlorine evaporates from the water.

The secret is I like to slowly enjoy my smoothies so I'll have it on my desk, I don't guzzle it down. Maybe drink it over 20-30 minutes. No need to rush.
