Can a vegan diet make me strong. Let's find out.
- Thread starter Nate Silvers
- Start date
LOL was thinking the same thingabout as believable as him ingesting 60 bananas up his back side. Is this real life?
Yep... I asked for a video... I doubt he'll provide one. I bet he could barely unrack 85kg...
Soldato
Yeah, you'll never see it for the following 10 reasons/excuses:
1. Apparently he doesnt have a smart phone - how will he record it?
2. His mate could record it? Probably but he rages and hates us guys so why would he?
3. He will say ' i was banned so said video was deleted because i couldnt post it'
4. Instead of buying a cheap smart phone for fellow rats to help out my form i would rather buy donkey kong size trolley load of bananaramas.
5. I am a phaggot
6. He is the guy remember that posted videos before and lifted wayy too much weight so his 5 reps probably classed as 1 - 2 whole reps at the most.
7. He no longer has his GF to un/rack the bench for him.
8. 7 was rude, apologies.
9. Not srs.
10. Rince and Repeat #5.

#11. He bounces his deadlift, so his bench is probably a joke too. I'm thinking that the bar is suspended from the ceiling via TRX bands.

So..Nate has been unbanned, edited his OP but hasn't responded. Please don't cry into your banana skins Nate - give us more of your made-up lifting figures and banana-fuelled inanity.

You'd be surprised by the effect banana enemas can have on a person.

^LOL spit out my banana
Dunno why I got suspended, something to do with swearing but couldn't find it.
Anyways this is me "barely unracking 80kg"
Not happy with it because
1. I'm so tired today running on six hours sleep.
2. I had to use the crappy barbell that spins.
I'll post a better video next week.
Made this lentil sheperd pie the other day, it was sooo good.
Oh yeah to the plant lover guy that says vegans are hypocrites cause we eat plants LOL, plants don't feel pain they have no nervous system or brain. Even if they did vegans are eating 10 ten times less plants than meat eaters (the billions of cattle need to eat for you) so if you really care about plants so much you should go vegan right now!

Lemme tell you something about shepherds pies, they make me REAL hungry.
SHEPHERD’S PIE with Mapled Parsnips (optional!)
SERVES 4
Serve with carrots, broccoli and Brussels sprouts topped with a vegan cheese sauce, or with Zesty Cauliflower with Garlic & Basil.
FILLING
extra virgin olive oil
1 large red onion, finely chopped
1 zucchini, finely chopped
4 mushrooms, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
3 cups (750 mL) vegan ground meat substitute or hydrated TVP (see this page) OR 1 cup brown lentils.
2 Tbsp (30 mL) tomato paste
1 cup (250 mL) vegetable stock or mushroom stock
1 cup (250 mL) frozen small peas
1 tsp (5 mL) dried mixed herbs (sage, thyme, marjoram, oregano, parsley)
½ tsp (2 mL) cornstarch, mixed with ¼ cup (60 mL) water
FILLING
1. Heat the olive oil in a nonstick pan set over medium heat, then fry the onion until transparent.
2. Add the zucchini and mushrooms, and fry for a few minutes.
3. Add the garlic and continue to cook, stirring, for another couple of minutes, until all the ingredients soften.
4. Stir in the vegan ground meat substitute or TVP or lentils, then add the tomato paste and a little more olive oil. Cook for a few more minutes.
5. Add the stock, peas and herbs. Simmer for 30 minutes over low heat while you prepare the topping (see the recipe below).
6. Finally, add the cornstarch mixture and stir. You should be left with a thickish sauce. If it is too runny, allow to simmer a while longer, until some of the liquid evaporates. Then spread it out evenly in a casserole dish.
TOPPING
2 lb (1 kg) potatoes, cut into quarters if small or 6–8 pieces if large
2 Tbsp (30 mL) vegan margarine
1 tsp (5 mL) salt
½ cup (125 mL) hot soymilk
olive oil, for drizzling
2 medium parsnips
TOPPING
1. Place the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer until very soft. Drain.
2. Mash the potatoes with the margarine and salt, slowly adding hot soymilk a little at a time. Mash until very smooth.
3. Steam the parsnips until slightly soft; slice lengthwise.
TO ASSEMBLE
½ lb (250 g) sliced vegan cheese that melts—use either Vegan Mozzarella, Mild Cheddar “Cheese” or purchased
a pinch of ground nutmeg, for dusting
maple syrup, for drizzling
TO ASSEMBLE
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Place the cheese slices on top of the filling in the dish. Then add the mashed potatoes, evening out with a spatula until smooth.
3. Place the parsnips around the edges of the dish. Dust ground nutmeg on top, and then drizzle some olive oil onto the parsnips, followed by a generous drizzling of maple syrup.
4. Bake for about 1 hour, until crispy and golden on top.

All oly barbells spin it's how they're designed.

Good job on the 80kg bench, at the end of the day forget the banana baiting and knuckle down to your training.
Do you have any idea what your calories are? It looks like you need to add some serious calories if your gona make further gains.
Oh and if your gona bulk, nuts would be a good thng to go for, rather than celery!

Do people bench with oly bars though? I always use the bar that doesn't move it's more stable.
Thanks form needs work. The bananas help me get over 3500 calories a day. I have no idea the exact level I'm eating. Sometimes it's not that much but I'm working on it.
Nuts are fattening I only eat a handful a week. I have a tub of peanut butter that lasts months. I don't wanna load myself up with fat and be sluggish/get increase chance of heart disease. Too much fat is not good.
Fruits and veggies are a better source of carbs.
I need to work on my sleep. I'm sick of under sleeping. Gonna aim to sleep by 10 p.m every night. If I get more sleep I'll be able to give way more effort in the gym and my life.
