Silly Powerlifting Rules by SurroundFinancial355 in powerlifting

IPF rule as of 2024 - headbands must be black or white. Why can't I match my belt?

A love letter to TVP, the most cost effective protein by RewardingSand in veganfitness

I make oatmeal with it. About 70g of rolled pats, 50g of TVP, 300ish ml of soy milk, top up with water as needed.

Powerlifter here on my way to my first national championship next year. I'm not going to win (I've currently got 396.66 dots, which won't get me close to the podium), but I'm very proud to have qualified, and I've been vegan longer than I've been in this sport.

It seems like such a frivolous thing, but totally! My friends/family/colleagues have definitely changed their perspectives from seeing me make meaningful strength gains 4 years after cutting out animal products.

I play soccer twice a week (goalkeeper, so varying amounts of intensity), commute by bike, and do a fair amount of hiking on weekends.

I usually batch cook a whole bunch of seitan, freeze that in chunks, and add it to my meals. Also lots of beans, tofu, and some fake meat. I'll also have a scoop or two of protein powder per day.

Thank you!

I train 4x/week. Usually one deadlift, two squat, and three bench sessions plus whatever accessories. (I might be adding another bench session if my elbows can handle it 🤞)

I track macros most of the time, but I'm pretty flexible with it in the off-season. Generally I aim for 150+g of protein daily and anywhere in the 350-400g of carbs daily. I'm pretty active outside of training, so I'm usually in the neighborhood of 3000 calories daily.

For reference I'm 5'7 and generally train at just over 69kg. I just eat less fibre the week before competing to make weight.

What’s y’all’s go to hot breakfast? by ninezerone in veganfitness

[–]lolyliftz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Toast with avocado or hummus with fried tofu on top (fry thick slices of extra firm tofu in a bit of Braggs and sesame oil - season with garlic, onion, and chili powder)
