pspforever1 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I'm using this for my diet: http://www.veganbodybuilding.com/?page=article_marcella_003 (Scroll to bottom) and this for my exercises: http://www.veganbodybuilding.com/?page=article_beginningbodybuilding I am on day 2 I will be working on my Back and Abs 1x12, 1x10, 1x8BackChinUpsT-Bar RowsDeadliftsCable Rows AbsHanging Leg RaisesRope Pull DownsFront / Side Crunches (It's just supposed to be a 1 week sample, so not surewhat I'm going to do after this week, I will use my rest daysto figure out an exercise routine following the basic one Set up). It's probably a good idea just to get used to it for a few weeksand try to better and correct my form.I would like to get a personal trainer to teach me but I'm notsure if it's worth it. Thanks. Yesterday was bicep and chest exercises. I think I was doing theexercises wrong because today just my arms are sore and not mychest. Because I wasn't doing the barbell exercises with correct form. All the way down to the chest and the closer your hands together the more definition you will get in your chest. So next time I will keep my hands closer together and bring it all the waydown.

mrbear666 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 good luck with your journey mate, how is the bean shake? ive been wanting to try it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pspforever1 Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 I haven't been doing the bean shake. I just use my vegan protein shake that I bought from the store. I might try the bean shake to as it might be cheaper. Yesterday sucked, I didn't go to they gym because I didn't know what some of the exercises were I had written down for back / ab exercises. I am going today though. My arms kill thoughI can't even straighten them, lol.Going to research things I can do for the pain or fasten the healing process or figure out what's going on. Breakfast- Porrige for breakfast with some fruit. breakfast snack- Vegan protein shake Lunch- Yam, lentil soup, salad WORKOUT - Abs / Back After workout snack - Vegan protein shake (probably should look into protein bars etc..) Dinner - Can of beans, Salad. Since I am skinny and want to gain some weight I should maybe look into deserts and more snacks to make. Also I can feel my appetite getting bigger... hopefully it does. My main problem has been my apetite. Going to see a dietician. I also told my doctor that I've been vegan for a month and he said it would be a lot harder to make "get bigger" without eating meat... lol, also he is concerned about some levels of iron and calcium and b12 so I'm getting blood taken which require a 8 hour fast, I will use a rest day for that it will suck though.

maybenot Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 This really pain will go away. But you will always feel some kind of muscle soreness. To heal the pain you have to eat right and sleep a lot ( 8h/day would be a good start ). Don`t get paranoid about iron and calcium, just make sure you are eating enough dark green vegetables ( like brocolli and kale ), for the calcium intake you could eat tofu and tahine. B12 you will have to supplement. I know how it feels to be skinny as hell, it takes some effort to eat all the food you need, stick to whole foods, healthy foods. Good luck on your journey. It takes a good amount of time, but stay consistent and you will get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.O. Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Nice, great job with the journals keeping separate logs and being so organized. Yo I want to hear about the bean shake when you try it as well, or I'll let you know if I try it first, Ive been thinking about it recently too.
