Rawmatt Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Went from my 1100 calorie diet a day to almost 2000. 100% raw is tough because most all vegan foods in their natural state contain fiber. Ive had to re-design my whole diet program. Ive added 10lbs of solid muscle however and doing it with bodyfat still below 10%. Let me know any particular foods that you have had success with that I might add to my regime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicholas_Weir Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Mabye try sprouted mung beans, they seemed to work for Giacomo Marchese! other things like soaked almonds etc, healthy fats boost your testosterone and in turn boost muscle gains.

Gaia Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Bananas of course! Add 5 more to add an additional 500 calories.Whenever I did almonds/walnuts, I would try to get some greens with them, just to help digest them properly. So a spinach smoothie and almond bars (almonds and dates basically), alternating bites/slurps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby Hercules Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Matt, I'm raw, too, and I love sprouted lentils. You can make a raw version of almost any lentil recipe--soups, burgers, salads--by just adding all the ingredients without cooking. The soups you can make thick and then add warmed water with each serving to make them more winter-friendly without breaking your raw vow. If I'm still hungry at bedtime, I open my mouth for a big bite of soaked raw almonds and then tip a dash of raw agave syrup into my gaping jaw. Whole oat groats soaked 24 hours added to dried fruit and a bit of coconut oil mixed in is an awesome breakfast, keeping you full for hours. Ground hemp seed is a balanced protein powder for smoothies, I always take a Nalgene bottle full of that with me to the gym. Fabulous ink, by the way, very unique and body-enhancing. Hard to claim in this tat-soaked world. Baby Herc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emvoneuw Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 You look awesome! I'm a raw vegan as well and trying to gain some serious muscle. The foods I eat for this are TONS of greens lke kale and spinach, bananas, some sprouted nuts and lentils. Hemp is an important one. There's also raw protein powders out there, like Sun Warrior.

Rawmatt Posted July 7, 2018 Author Share Posted July 7, 2018 Siiiick, sup bro, awesome work. You've disappeared off Facebook, hope all is well. Yeah sorry, I dont do social media anymore. I did make a youtube channel for a short while, but grew tired of that as well. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNUGigqj7UMRX5RJzuVuIbg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawmatt Posted July 7, 2018 Author Share Posted July 7, 2018 Looking very good! I would also be curious to have a look at your diet Oh wow ! I just now read my messages hahahhahaaI eat 2 meals and drink 1-2 meals. I start around noon or 2pm and stop at 8-10pm. I drink a smoothie and eat a coconut for the calories and zucchini pasta. Sometimes I can force another smoothie but its hard. I have to be really motivated to consume food when I do not want to, and since I am not a competitive bodybuilder i usually neglect it.
