Commit NOW & Figure The Rest Out Later

I'm never going to let limiting beliefs and excuses hold me back from doing something that really matters to me. Something that I know will push me out of my comfort zone and force me to grow into the man I want to become.I call this mentality "commit NOW and figure the rest out later!" It's a concept that I learned from a well-known entrepreneur named Grant Cardone.And this is exactly what we'll be talking about in today's podcast. My brother Anders and I both open up about our personal lives, struggles, and ambitions. I think this is hands-down the best podcast we've done so far.

How To Establish MASSIVE Accountability In Your Life

I love working out and nourishing my body and mind with healthy food. But I’m not immune to the lure of taking it easy and making excuses.We’ve all said things like “I don’t feel like going to the gym today” and “I’ll just have one more slice.” But those missed workouts and extra calories tend to snowball into a real problem over time.This is precisely why we all need to create accountability in our lives.I have my brother to hold me accountable in the gym, a business coach to hold me accountable in my business, and mentors to hold me accountable in life.I don’t care how much self-discipline you have, you NEED accountability.In this episode of The Vegan Gym Podcast, my brother and I are going to teach you exactly how to create accountability in your life.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

STEROIDS

Based on research from the International Journal of Sports Medicine, you can expect to gain muscle 3 to 15 times faster using steroids than you can naturally. But at what cost?Steroids cause kidney problems or failure, liver damage, life-threatening cardiovascular complications, wreak havoc on your endocrine system, and much, much more.So my goal in for this podcast episode is simple. I want to educate you on steroids and provide a science-based argument for why you should never take them.We’ll discuss what exactly steroids are, how they work, and how they affect your body and health. We’ll also discuss other performance-enhancing drugs like SARMs.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

Why Most Vegans Cannot Build Muscle

Are you struggling to build muscle? If so, I know the feeling. I used to be 130 pounds (59kg) standing 5’11” tall (1.8m tall). Seriously, I was a STICK.I just weighed myself this morning at 194 pounds (87kg)... 64 pounds (29kg) HEAVIER than I was 10 years ago. And guess what? It’s almost entirely muscle.When I first started getting into fitness, I honestly didn't think there was any way that I could build muscle. I really struggled.So in this episode of The Vegan Gym Podcast, my brother Anders and I will explain the 3 REASONS that vegans struggle to build muscle.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

How To Avoid Injury and MAXIMIZE Results

Nailing down your form is the best way to avoid injury and MAXIMIZE your results. Poor form not only diminishes your results, it also puts serious stress on your muscles, ligaments, and tendons, which can potentially put you out of training for months.So it's not just about how much weight you're using or where the weight travels; it's about how the weight gets from point A to point B. You need to lift with complete control, focus, and intensity.In this episode of The Vegan Gym Podcast, we'll teach you exactly how to nail down your form so you get the most out of your training without risking injury.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 TRUTH About Vegan Protein Quality

A high-protein diet is absolutely vital for building muscle, gaining strength, and getting ripped. But when it comes to protein, QUANTITY is only half of the equation. The other half is protein QUALITY. Most people talk about protein in terms of quantity, but I would argue that vegan protein quality is equally important.And here's why...The protein found in plant foods all have different "qualities." “High quality” versus “low quality” proteins are terms generally used to distinguish the relative proportions of the different essential amino acids found in certain foods. The more closely the proportion matches our own proteins, the higher its “quality.”In this episode of The Vegan Gym Podcast, we'll discuss the TRUTH about vegan protein quality.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
