  1. Welcome. If you need any help creating a balanced vegan diet check out http://www.Infinitewellness2010.com
  2. Did you ever find a recipe? If so please share, I'm kinda in the same boat as you. What I normally do is 1 cup hemp or rice milk 1/2 cup tahini butter a little agave 1 1/2 cups rice protein powder spread it in a cake pan and put it in the fridge. It really doesn't taste all that great though, but it works, you can put caco on top maybe. Oats are gross with it though.
  3. moving your wallet to the front. LOL!!!!!!!!! I like power yoga, thats fun.
  4. Oh ya I've heared that to. I'm the only one in may family who eats health, I will assume your the same way? Have you ever done pilates? My back has been going out for years where I would go to the chiropractor 3-4 times a week, after I started teaching pilates I go maybe 1 time a year if that.
  5. Thanks, I just look to skeleton like though when I'm that low. Were you not able to lift your daughter before?
  6. Veggie princess, But for figure then a vegan diet works great, but I'm fitness- which vegan is great and so is raw, I compete at 7% bodyfat, but I wanted to switch to bodybuilding so maybe thats why. Or maybe my body won't go beyond 120 lb of lean mass. But ya I'm sorry to tell you that was the response I got from him and I was pretty pissed and it was a waste of money for me. As for 20% protein the average is 15% but if your lifting heavy then go with 20%. I will have to check out that guy you said. Thanks
  7. I know all about cycling calories and all of that. And I know what vegan is, I have been one for 10 years. And I know all about cardio and strength. I worked with chuck cuz i checked out your site and saw him on there so I tried him for a comp. And he told me if I wanted to put on more mass that I needed to have whey or go back to vegatarian, I said that was not an option cuz I told him from the get go I was vegan. I know he's not vegan, but if I am paying him for a mass building vegan diet I shouldn't be told you can't really gain muscle without whey.
  8. Ya pea protein is great. Don't cycle calories. Everyone is different with nutrition. I have worked with who she reccommends and all I got was you need to eat whey or animals! I to am in the fitness industry, and have been for 9 1/2 years as well as a nutrition and wellness coach. But when it come's to living mainly raw Charlie and Dr. Graham are the best or the best!
  9. I'm about 80% raw, 20% of my diet is protein- rice or pea- from protein powders. No you don't need more water unless you feel dehydrated. I am not familiar with the program you are doing, but running is great or cycle. And if you not challenged by the weight you are lifting anymore than kick it up. One thing i noticed was if I was all raw with no protein I lost muscle and put on fat. But that could be just me. And make sure you are eating enough otherwise your body holds on to fat. If you want someone great to work with on the raw diet go to charliesgym.com I worked with him to drop 5 lbs for my fitness comp. and he is raw himself, which i personally like. He is also very reasonable priced. check him out.
  10. just be carefull with the pushups on the treadmill, make sure you are using the front bars of it and not the side and that your at a good angle or eles you can injure yourself. To make them even harder try 1 handed pushups on the bars, thats fun!!!!!!!!!!
  11. It depends on what time you go to the gym, if you go when it's very busy then no you can't do that. I only go when it's not busy otherwise you can't get any equipment what so ever. And ya jump rope would work fine to.
  12. A great way to change it up, since most women don't want to lift to heavy is do 10 min. cardio, lift, 10 min cardio, lift.... but your cardio need's to be between 75%-80% Max heart rate. Or use interval's, so 3 min. warm up, 1 min sprint, 1 min recovery, 1.5 min sprint, 1.5 recovery, 2 min sprint, 2 min. recovery, repeat. They both work great. Also if your lifting heavier now I will assume you are doing rep or 12 to build muscle or 8? You can also pyramid your weights which I love to do for 4-6 weeks then go back to 12 or 20 reps, that way your body never gets used to the same thing.
  13. 20 Min. Intervel cardio. This way your working both the slow and fast twitch muscles, speeding up your recovery time, and burning more fat then you would with steady cardio.
