Thank you for addressing the "incomplete protein" issue. For years, I wanted to change my diet but my former trainer told me that it would be incomplete and I couldn't achieve my goals. I am so glad that I made the change to plant based and would have love to have seen this video years ago. You will help a lot of people with this content!

Nimai is the ultimate inspiration for vegans who are into body building❤

I've been vegan since 2016. Pushing 50. I can do 130 pushups, military-style non-stop. Sometimes I want to yell, "Unlimited Power!!" as I'm knocking them out. lol. Vegan power baby!

[silberwald]

I went vegan one year ago and I still build muscles and feel better than ever before. My skin is also looking so much better now.

[VeganGorilla]

I've been Vegan for 13 years now. I never had to worry about amino acids and what not. I' 53 now and very healthy.

Complete respect for educating our meat-eating (I was one for 38 years before going vegetarian and now finally vegan) ostriches on the benefits of plant power when you do your research.
And as 'Simon says' himself it reduces biomarkers for disease, it's better for the environment and better for animals who have no choice in our sometimes unthinking dietary appetites.
Good job for trying to wake certain people up!

Not a body builder but I love your videos, especially this one with Simon. Switched to a plant based diet for longevity and disease prevention 4 years ago with a focus on dementia prevention. Not only have I experienced zero downsides, I feel that I have thrived on a balanced plant based diet. Great job being a voice to help expose some myths that have been plaguing the food industry. I can also fully recommend Dr. Michael Greger and his research... if anyone hasn't heard of him.

I just saw you on You Are What You Eat. Great job coaching the twins on nutrition and exercise; I was really excited to see your role on the documentary! I'm not a bodybuilder by any means, but I will check out your videos as I am getting older and need to build more muscle. I follow your buddy Derek Simnett here in Canada and am interested in your high protein recipes & exercises to help me build more upper body strength and reduce my chronic pain. Thank you for dispelling myths about veganism and spreading the truth!

I recently went vegan only about three weeks in now, but I feel so much better mentally physically spiritually and emotionally definitely sticking to this way of eating. Thank you for this video as well peace and love to you brother.

I've been lifting since Sep. 2012 & been vegan since Sep. 2014; I agree with you especially with the recovery aspect😏.

[rickyracerr]

I've tried carnivore and vegan while bodybuilding for the last 10 years. Muscle building is the same either way. I do a combination of both now. Chicken, Turkey, eggs, fruits and vegetables, whole grains And Healthy fats. If you can hit your macros with clean eating and stay away from sugar and processed food, your body will thank you. Lift heavy for hypertrophy, A good recovery time.

[jonathanbarnett]

This was great. I started my vegan journey because of afib. I think it is improving my life and helping me to build muscle. Thank you for sharing this information. Now for the animals. So now have answer when people say to me can get enough protein as a vegan. I want to show this video to everyone...

[beanburrito]

You dont have to combine any food. Just eat plant based. More greens and fruit and vegetables have all amino acids.

[red_rose_redemption]

Really enjoying your new video format, I’ve been vegan since I was 12. Im 28 now and I was also born vegetarian like you!

[justicericketts]

If you two wanted to collab for a video every week or every month that would be okay you know 😅😅😅😅 two of my absolute favorites! Thank you for another video!

[kramkalisthenics]

Love it how Nimai looks far more fit than everyone who answered "animal protein". LOL

[janetatuniquerawfoods]

After watching this… it’s good to hear. I didn’t want to watch it at first… for just Another divided world of vegan vs meat. I’m vegan for decades now. The battle about it in society is tough though.

Fact is… eating animals and products just to gain more muscle… is greed. Especially since it goes into Excess. This is greed. People don’t need that much if at all of animal flesh. Flip side… even vegan loading up or excess can fall to this greed too. It’s a fine line with purpose, vanity and true gratitude, health and, beauty. I lift too. My experience with weight resistant training in my teens until now… has helped accelerate healing from chronic illness. Thanks again guys. It was easy to listen to and enjoyable to watch.

I'm glad that someone like you is spreading good information without being extremist or judgmental. Keep on doing the hard work, maybe even try to reach out to Arnold to promote plant base diet

[JosephNJ]

I just learned how well tempeh and tofu freeze, and now I'm never out of either.

[Marine_Veteran_Vegan_Gamer]

Let's go. Protein is Protein, the source doesn't matter. Well, animal Protein matters to the animal.
