There comes a point on the road to achieving any great endeavor when you realize just how tough it's really going to be. When you realize that it's going to take many times more effort than you anticipated. And at that point you have two options: you can throw in the towel, wave a white flag, and give up. That's what most people do. Or you can embrace adversity and lean into the difficulty because you know THAT will bring you closer to the incredible person you were put on this Earth to become.Get your free copy of our new book, Vegan Fat Shredding Secrets: https://www.veganshredding.comApply to the Vegan Superhero Academy, our 1-on-1 online coaching program: https://www.vegansuperheroacademy.comFollow us on Instagram for daily tips and inspiration: https://www.instagram.com/thevegangym/Check out our vegan fitness apparel: https://vegangymgear.com/Support the show

Despite what the bodybuilding magazines tell you, the primary driver of muscle growth is progressive overload. It’s not muscle confusion or time under tension or muscle soreness or metabolic conditioning or anything else.Progressive overload means increasing tension levels in muscle fiber over time and the best way to do that is to add weight to the bar. If you are not gradually adding weight to the bar over time (assuming you are working in the same rep range) then you are definitely not building muscle at an optimal rate.Get your free copy of our new book, Vegan Fat Shredding Secrets: https://www.veganshredding.comApply to the Vegan Superhero Academy, our 1-on-1 online coaching program: https://www.vegansuperheroacademy.comFollow us on Instagram for daily tips and inspiration: https://www.instagram.com/thevegangym/Check out our vegan fitness apparel: https://vegangymgear.com/Support the show

How do you balance protein and carbs as a vegan? That's a question that we receive often. And it's a fair question!Most protein-packed plant foods also tend to be high in either carbs or fat. For example, tofu is packed with high-quality plant protein, but it's also high in fat. Lentils are packed with high-quality plant protein, but they also contain lots of carbs. This can make it difficult to balance your macros, especially when you are working to shred fat.So in this week's episode of The Vegan Gym Podcast, my brother and I will teach you how to get all the protein you need while balancing your carb and fat intake!Get your free copy of our new book, Vegan Fat Shredding Secrets: https://www.veganshredding.comApply to the Vegan Superhero Academy, our 1-on-1 online coaching program: https://www.vegansuperheroacademy.comFollow us on Instagram for daily tips and inspiration: https://www.instagram.com/thevegangym/Check out our vegan fitness apparel: https://vegangymgear.com/Support the show
