When someone asks, ‘Where do you get your protein from?’
Point them to powerhouse vegan bodybuilders like Mr Universe Barny du Plessis, Jehina Malik, Nimai Delgado, and Torre Washington. These plant-powered athletes prove that you can build incredible strength without a single animal product.
In fact, protein is in virtually all plant foods! While athletes need a bit more, the average adult only needs around 50g to 60g a day. Just load up your plate with delicious staples like tofu, tempeh, seitan, lentils, chickpeas, beans, quinoa, nuts, seeds, and your favourite mock meats.
