How do you balance protein and carbs as a vegan? That's a question that we receive often. And it's a fair question!Most protein-packed plant foods also tend to be high in either carbs or fat. For example, tofu is packed with high-quality plant protein, but it's also high in fat. Lentils are packed with high-quality plant protein, but they also contain lots of carbs. This can make it difficult to balance your macros, especially when you are working to shred fat.So in this week's episode of The Vegan Gym Podcast, my brother and I will teach you how to get all the protein you need while balancing your carb and fat intake!Get your free copy of our new book, Vegan Fat Shredding Secrets: https://www.veganshredding.comApply to the Vegan Superhero Academy, our 1-on-1 online coaching program: https://www.vegansuperheroacademy.comFollow us on Instagram for daily tips and inspiration: https://www.instagram.com/thevegangym/Check out our vegan fitness apparel: https://vegangymgear.com/Support the show

What you need to understand is that when you say “I’m going to put it off until later” what you’re really saying is “I am going to choose commitment when the timing is convenient.”But you can’t.When you are truly committed to something, you’ll do whatever it takes no matter what. People who achieve their ideal bodies and health keep their commitments regardless of convenience.Get your free copy of our new book, Vegan Fat Shredding Secrets: https://www.veganshredding.comApply to the Vegan Superhero Academy, our 1-on-1 online coaching program: https://www.vegansuperheroacademy.comFollow us on Instagram for daily tips and inspiration: https://www.instagram.com/thevegangym/Check out our vegan fitness apparel: https://vegangymgear.com/Support the show

The people who achieve success in fitness are the people who get up and make it happen. They look for the circumstances they want, and if they can’t find them, then they make them. They don’t make excuses. The word “can’t” doesn’t exist in their vocabulary.Stop saying “I can’t.” You CAN. You just chose not to.That’s a REALLY important distinction. And honestly, it's often a hard pill to swallow.I’m not saying that it’s easy. It’s usually the exact opposite. It’s typically really, really tough. But that doesn’t mean you can’t do it. You can and you will.Get your free copy of our new book, Vegan Fat Shredding Secrets: https://www.veganshredding.comApply to the Vegan Superhero Academy, our 1-on-1 online coaching program: https://www.vegansuperheroacademy.comFollow us on Instagram for daily tips and inspiration: https://www.instagram.com/thevegangym/Check out our vegan fitness apparel: https://vegangymgear.com/Support the show
