Personal trainers don't need to know what they are talking about.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_trainer#United_States
>A number of certifications are available in the U.S., although a number are not accredited. Most require a high school diploma, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated external defibrillator (AED) certification, and some type of examination.[6]
A 2002 investigation evaluated a random sample of 115 personal trainers using the Fitness Instructors Knowledge Assessment (FIKA) (which measures knowledge in nutrition, health screening, testing protocols, exercise prescription, and special populations). The study described that:[14][15]
>
70% of those surveyed did not have a degree in any field related to exercise science.
Those who did not have a bachelor's degree in an exercise science-related field scored 31% less on average than those with a bachelor's degree or higher in the field.
Those holding one of two specific certifications (the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) or the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) certification) scored 83% of the questions correctly on average. Those holding any certification other than ACSM or NSCA answered only 38% of the questions correctly.
Years of experience was not found to be predictive of personal trainer knowledge.

With that said - if I were a personal trainer I would discourage people from doing barbell work, to at least emphasize they need some study. Probably some liability if someone hurts themselves, and some people are morons. At any rate take what trainers say with a lot of salt.

I gained about 15 pounds in a year doing a simple beginner program 3 times a week. This was not at all the center of my life - working and going to school for CS at the same time. I did spend quite a bit of time studying how to do the exercises correctly. With a beginner program, you will start with very low weight (which increases fast) in order to get to practice the exercises.

Focusing on learning how to do the exercises, and going regularly is probably the most important thing to build strength. Plan for the long-term, this is extremely extremely important. Your purpose at first is:

1) to go to learn how to do the exercises well,

2) to go religiously.


Doing these two things are what you reward yourself with the sense of "job well done" for. You will lose strength depressingly fast by not going regularly. 3 times a week for 30 min to an hour is not a big deal.

You can build significant strength without bulking/bodybuilding. Having a lot of strength will make bodybuilding/bulking easier. This is mostly to keep in mind for later, when it is time to shift to an intermediate program.


Stronglifts 5x5 is listed on here.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Fitness/wiki/getting_started#wiki_adding_exercise

Stronglifts has been very successful for a lot of people, and gets a lot good credit. The program is extremely simple so you do not have to waste time thinking of what to do. The phone apps by the author are exceptional. Negative things about the program are generally complaints that it is a beginner program. There will come a point stronglifts will stop producing gains, and it is time to shift programs. When that time comes it will make quite a bit of sense in your body why. Stronglifts is a great beginner program.

I still do it, with some minor alteration, even though I know I need to shift, because it's good enough for now for me. Easy & meditative and the gains still come. Well lifting heavy weights is hard, but easy in the "flowing like water" sense.

Here's an easy to-do list for you which will work:


>1) Go to stronglifts.com, watch his vides on how to do the exercises, and how to do the program.
>
2) Study the exercises!
>
3) Download phone app
>
4) Do your first session at the gym
>
5) Begin reading Starting Strength. Ignore a lot of the dietary advice.
>
6) Watch videos on youtube & continue improving your form.
>
7) Continue going to workouts religiously.
>
8) Start eating for muscle growth.


I have diet listed last here, because in one sense it is the least important. In order to gain weight, you will have to eat a lot. And a couple months into the program you will need to eat well to make noticeable strength gains. But do not worry about this at first. As you go regularly & get good at the lifts (because that is the goal that matters), after a period of time you will see how not eating/sleeping enough makes you weaker.

It will be quite visceral when you get to higher weights, and after months of (going religiously!) experiencing the difference of days when you eat/rest well vs. not, and the iron will grace you with a powerful visceral drive to change your diet. It's like free motivation at that point. When you have been going regularly for months, then the diet becomes extremely important. Don't worry about it much at first. You will make fast gains even with a crappy diet at the start. But damn sure go to the gym when you are feeling weak, that is what will push your understanding of what to eat.

And again - you can gain a lot strength without bulking much, and that strength will help you bulk. So even if you don't bulk for a few months, it is not a loss. Just keep going.


I will add, for a pre/post workout shake, I get pea protein from https://truenutrition.com/veganplant-proteins.aspx . Pea protein has had some studies place it competitively with whey. I mix it with water & juice, and I will add creatine. My perspective is that not eating animal products slows bulking, though that tends to be hearsay here. Who cares when it's the right thing to do though.

Here's a copy/paste of what I like to recommend for "protein powder pudding":

> I started off using only Greenmax Purple Yam & Black Soybean Powder, mixed with juuust enough water to turn it into a smooth, pudding-ish texture. It tastes like freakin' cake batter, but the numbers are very reasonable.
>
> Greenmax is pretty awesome on its own, but as I've started needing more calories, I've been adding in various of the following -- again, adding only just enough liquid (water or soymilk) to turn it into a pudding, since I'm not going for a smoothie here:
>
> Protein powder (chocolate or vanilla flavors go great with the Greenmax's cake batter flavor)
>
Cocoa powder
> Chia and/or ground flax seeds
>
Molasses
> Blueberries (frozen work best, IMO -- mix 'em right in without thawing first and the result turns out like ice cream)
>
Tahini (lot of calories here; use wisely)
> Coconut oil (only if MFP shows me I've got a lot of calories & fat left for the day)
>
>
> So in a soup or cereal bowl, add in any of the above that sound good, plus just enough liquid, and then stir, stir, stir... then eat! It's quick to make, delicious (to me, and to my SO who has quite the discerning sweet tooth), no heat required, and easy to customize to adjust the numbers in whichever direction you need.

I hope this helps. Some protein powders are definitely tougher to get down than others, regardless of how they're prepared!

Edit: Unless too much liquid was added, you probably wouldn't want to try to actually
drink* the final product. Spoon is best. :)

So yesterday I tried this combo:

1 scoop Jarrow Creatine
30 mins before Jiu Jitsu.

Breakfast:
8 a.m:

1 slice of Ezekiel sourdoug toast with almond cream cheese.
Shake with Nutiva hemp protein, 1/2 banana, blueberries, water, almond milk, almond butter and a splash of flax seed oil.

Tea mix of whole foods yerba matte and spoonful of matcha.


11:30 a.m:

1 scoop BCAA in my water bottle for during class & open mat (1.5 hours)

2 p.m.:

1 scoop Glutamine
1/2 Scoop Nutiva Hemp Protein Powder

Grilled two veggie sausages with a tad of almond cheese melted on two whole wheat hot dog buns.

About 20-30 mins after eating I pretty much crashed and had to take a nap. Was tired the rest of the day. Took 1 B-complex vitamin before bed and slept in till about 8:15 am. Usually wake up before 7 and feel fine.

If it matters, for dinner I had a bowl of quinoa with grilled corn, vegetables and some seitan chorizo, a small glass of wine and after a beer.

Noticed that at Jiu Jitsu I was in beast mode but felt my mind was clear. I was worried the creatine would give me anxiety like a lot of other similar supplements often do. I felt great and had some amazing matches. Went harder with some of the tougher dudes but held my own and felt great.

I'm thinking maybe I need to work on my post workout food/routine. Maybe I need to bring a shake that's ready for right after with protein powder and glutamine or something. Any suggestions?

u/r0botdevil · 6 pointsr/veganfitness

If you're trying to build some muscle, it definitely is important to get enough calories. So if you've calculated your goal intake at 1515/day and you want to add a swim, you should increase your intake to account for that.

As for learning the lifts, I'd start with very basic stuff like bench press, squat, deadlift, and maybe shoulder press. There should be loads of video tutorials on YouTube for this, but proper form is extremely important to minimize risk of injury so don't be too shy about asking someone to check your form in the gym. Most good lifters will be happy to help out with spotting and/or form-checking once in a while, just try not to ask the same guy for stuff all the time or it might get annoying. The biggest single piece of advice I can give to new lifters on form is this: If your muscles are sore the next day, you're probably doing it right. If your bones or joints are sore the next day, you're probably doing something wrong.

As for getting adequate protein as a vegan, that may be your biggest challenge. This stuff is awesome, this stuff isn't bad, and this is a good recipe for a high-protein seitan.

Good luck!

u/dreiter · 2 pointsr/veganfitness

It totally depends on the product. The flavored options are the priciest but are usually your best bet for flavor and texture. Something like Plant Fusion goes on sale often and has a pretty decent flavor/texture profile. If you just get a plain pea/rice blend then the flavor and texture are....quite challenging. Out of laziness and frugalness I usually buy a Plantfusion tub on sale and then mix it with an unflavored rice protein to help reduce the sweetness and cost. It's not a perfect solution but it works well enough I think.

u/litteroddity · 2 pointsr/veganfitness

I'm definitely happy that we have so many options nowadays and that there are so many companies that are creating Vegan products.

Really depends on what you're looking for though. Customization is certainly great, but Vega really shines when it comes to creating high-quality innovative products that are formulated with performance, flavor, and whole food ingredients in mind that I actually trust to put into my body. For the most part their products are not supplements, but whole food powders (no synthesized vitamins and mineral blends that come from a lab, amino acid blends, enzyme derivatives etc. but rather non-GMO powdered food ingredients like greens, spirulina, marine algae calcium, acacia gum, real fruits and veggies, etc.). Price-wise there is really a range now too, Protein & Greens is available on Amazon for about $17/lb, and has 20g of protein and 3 servings of greens in a scoop.

u/team_pancakes · 1 pointr/veganfitness

I like the black bean pastas, but the red lentil pasta does taste better. Tastes kinda like normal pasta. I bought a big bag of this in bulk. A pretty good deal. The "tolerant" brand pastas are good, too, but more expensive.

u/jerbs24 · 1 pointr/veganfitness

Most on here will tell you True Nutrition. Which, I can agree on some points. However, most of their products are sweetened by Sucralose (secret word for Splenda). I usually like close to 2lbs of powder. Which, could put you around $20 but in the US shipping and handling can run you to around $27.

I like this one:
https://www.amazon.com/Vega-Protein-Greens-Vanilla-servings/dp/B00MYRXIIS/ref=sr_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1522695726&sr=8-3&keywords=vega+protein+powder

with PRIME shipping is free. It tastes very good and it's sweetened by stevia which is a better alternative than sucralose.

u/TopDogChick · 2 pointsr/veganfitness

No probs, the kind I got was their all-in-one kind, which has all the essential amino acids, plus some other vitamins and some omega-3. Both the chocolate and vanilla flavors are great, but I would recommend making sure to use a banana and pb for sure, otherwise it isn't as sweet and fatty tasting. I picked mine up at Albertsons, but you can also grab it on amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/Naturade-Vegansmart-Nutritional-Shake-Vanilla/dp/B00CWLA56O?th=1

Hope that gives you some good info!

u/happyFelix · 2 pointsr/veganfitness

On the routine you can go to /r/bodybuilding. Just don't tell them you're vegan. :o)

Get 1g per pound of bodyweight of protein (protein powder seems to be the easiest way to do this on a vegan diet) daily.
Get 3-500 kcal above daily maintenance levels to fuel growth.

Use Starting Strength.

Ideally you stay in the 8-12 rep range per set (2-3 sets).
Don't train all muscles on all days. Split it up. One day chest, one day legs, one day shoulders and back, something like that.
You can push yourself more and each muscle group has more time to recover and grow.

You may also find further help on http://veganbodybuilding.com

Have patience. This project will realistically take about 3 years to completion if done right (which is no time really and you'll see continuous improvement from the first months on). You will get more of those gains in the beginning, which should soothe some of that impatience.

u/Notenoughmana123 · 1 pointr/veganfitness

>At the moment I'm considering: organic brown rice, hemp and pea protein, coconut oil powder/coconut powder, ground up leafy greens, ground up chia seeds and some kind of flavouring

That sounds pretty good to me and similar to what I drink, adjusted as needed. Are you asking if I would be interested in an all-in-one product like that? Not particularly, unless it was very competitive in price to plain protein. My GF is fond of this all-in-one nutritional shake. At first glance, the only thing this includes that your shake is missing would be the pre/pro biotics, the digestive enzymes and perhaps a fortified vitamin or two that would be missing. If I were interested in a product like that, this is what I would buy.

u/roboisgod · 2 pointsr/veganfitness

I've been vegan 7 years and have tried all sorts of stuff. If money wasn't a problem I'd use the Vega Sport Performance protein.

To be honest, though, at this point I mostly find protein powders unnecessary. You can definitely meet your protein needs through diet and maybe only in extreme situations (body builders) would you need to supplement. This is my opinion/experience as someone who is a competitive cyclist, training 15-20+ hours a week.

That being said, what I have found to be the best bang for your buck option is pea protein. The amino profile is good and it can be had for cheap. This is what I have used in the past: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RPMMFWM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00
100% pure pea protein and nothing else. It mixes well with just about everything, doesn't really taste like anything and doesn't have a weird texture. To give you an idea, I used to mix it into a bowl of cereal, it's that mild in texture/flavor.

u/YahwehTheDevil · 1 pointr/veganfitness

>I've heard that B12 is quite hard to get from a plant based diet, is this true?

Yes, vegans need to supplement B12. I recommend getting the Deva multivitamin.

>What supplements should I take?

We also need a source of EPA and DHA, and AFAIK Ovega-3 is the cheapest option. Other supplements you may need are D3, zinc, and creatine.

>Any good quick meal suggestions?

My go-to meal is black beans fried in olive oil because of their hearty texture. Depending on how involved you want to get, you can add spices like basil and paprika and vegetables like onions and tomato.

>Any advice for what to eat when I'm out and about?

If you guys have Chipotle, their sofrita is an excellent tofu burrito.

u/the_good_time_mouse · 10 pointsr/veganfitness

Perhaps you could quantify what you mean by 'a lot of muscle'.

IME, the most effective (and, sadly overlooked) way to gain control of one's weight is to become stronger. And, for most people, this means a lot stronger - modern sedentary life has made them vastly weaker than their bodies are meant to work.

And the most effective way to do that is through weight training. So, when you say 'a lot' stronger, what does that mean? Can you do regular sets (ie 5-8 reps) of bench/squat/deadlifts approaching (75-100%) of your own (lean) body weight?

http://www.stronglifts.com is a good start for beginner weight lifters, as is the Rippetoe's Starting Strength, on which it is based. http://www.amazon.com/Starting-Strength-3rd-Mark-Rippetoe/dp/0982522738

And no, this won't turn you into the incredible bulk. Anyone who suggests that to you knows as much about fitness as a meat eater asking you where your protein comes from :)

And no, running a lot and cutting calories without getting strong first is an slow, painful, grueling and ultimately grossly inefficient way of losing weight, when it works at all. Most people give up, or try on and off for years and years, without seeing much of an effect. My wife trained for a half marathon, in the hopes of losing weight, and lost nothing. You really have to be strong first.

u/Fluxcapacitor84 · 1 pointr/veganfitness

I'm not sure the nitrate content, but this is what I use:

Beet Juice Powder

Along with: L-Citrulline


I mix about two scoops of the Beet powder and 1tsp of L-Citrulline. I find it to be extremely effective. I have used all sorts of pre-workout powders over the years. Some with caffeine, some without, and all sorts of different ingredients. I have beeng using this concoction exclusively for the past 2 months and it's the best thing I've ever used for a pre-workout. If your doing 2 scoops its turns out to be about 64 servings for $27.

u/SeafoodDuder · 4 pointsr/veganfitness

I just bought this Orgain Protein Powder in chocolate. I mixed almond milk + tablespoon of peanut butter + two cups of this protein powder. Tastes pretty good and it's pretty cheap. :)

u/Animum_Rege · 0 pointsr/veganfitness

Protein isolate and [cereal](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CS9ZUQ/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_x_ueKQybD58BNE8 like Frosted Flakes). It's probably good to throw in some antioxidants like eating a handful of berries, spinach, or a cap of ALA.

If that's still too complicated, then just down a mix of maltodextrin and wazy maize. Also good to include some BCAAs, creatine, and antioxidants (e.g. ALA) into the mix as well.

u/lespaul134 · 1 pointr/veganfitness

There ya go! Same exact one I buy. I'll caution though, it tastes kinda bad. However, if you mix a teaspoon of cinnamon (not cinnamon sugar) in with each scoop it tastes pretty good. I'll even use it to make pudding.

A scoop of this, two cups of defrosted berries, 1.5-2teaspoon of cinnamon, and 12 dates chopped up. Generous scoop of coco powder. Mix in just enough water to make it like a pudding. Boom.

u/RedLotusVenom · 14 pointsr/veganfitness

24g of protein in a scoop of NowSports Pea Protein. A scoop or two a day with some PB thrown in to cut the foaminess and add flavor will help you hit your goal easily. It's also the cheapest protein powder I've ever seen. 2lb for $16, 7lb for $45. 120 calories, no saturated fats, and lots of iron. It doesn't taste good alone (unflavored, hence my PB suggestion), but it goes great in smoothies and shakes.

I have turned "bacon tho" carnist friends onto this based on the price alone.

Also, maybe think about replacing whatever vegan milk you might use with Silk Protein NutMilk. 10g of pea protein in an 8oz serving, with basically no fat.

u/showmethestudy · 4 pointsr/veganfitness

Yeah you can do a lot better per pound for vegan protein. Here's an example of pea protein powder.

Edit: I realize my comment appears I was saying you could do better than your find. I was referring to the OP's submission.

The NOW plant protein complex is good and cheap, too https://www.amazon.com/Now-Foods-Plant-Protein-Complex/dp/B00NIJ01FO

u/RobotDrZaius · 2 pointsr/veganfitness

While you should always focus on whole foods, buying a protein powder may help ease your concerns about that aspect of your diet - and it's quite cheap 'per calorie', although it feels like a big purchase. I use this pea protein personally.

Buy beans and lentils in bulk and learn how to prepare them. Buy gluten and learn how to make seitan or high-protein baked goods. The key to cheap vegan protein is doing a lot of the work yourself - though you can also snag very cheap tofu from big chain stores like Walmart/Target.

Edit: I realized you're asking for recipes, not just tips. Lentil/Gluten steaks (you can ignore the mushroom gravy part if you're extra frugal), and Cuban Black Beans and Rice are two of my staples.

NOW Sports Pea Protein Natural Unflavored Powder,7-Pound https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JL6ZKFE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_VtE-zbCBGT9QD

This is the cheapest per pound you'll find. Also, you probably don't need a protein powder. Fill in your diet with legumes and broccoli and you'll see on cronometer that you're definitely not lacking in protein. Eating high in protein right after a workout will be most efficient. Protein powder might help in some way maybe? I think that it's bioavailability goes up when you consume it like this, but I wouldn't consider it necessary.

u/J-Dragon007 · 2 pointsr/veganfitness

salted caramel was the first I've tried. Honestly, it probably is the best out of like 8 different protein powder brands/flavors I've tried, but if you don't have the money, this is probably a lot better.

It's unavailable atm, but it costs less than half of vivolife and tastes about the same (granted it's different flavors).

And the answer to your question: not as good as I expected, but still one of if not the best I've tried.

In addition to what you get from Truenutrition, I also pick up Now Sports Pea Protein and MLO Brown Rice Protein (sweeter than a lot of powders, thus more carbs than the pea) so I can better mix and match my carbs/protein/sodium to whatever else I'm eating. If you use Amazon Prime, the Now Pea Protein is generally just under ~10#, and they usually offer you a credit for videos or Prime Pantry if you take slower shipping.

you can easily eat a shitton of protein on a vegan diet if you supplement a bit: https://www.amazon.com/Orgain-Organic-Protein-Plant-Based-Chocolate/dp/B00J074W94?ie=UTF8&SubscriptionId=AKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B00J074W94&linkCode=xm2&psc=1&tag=duckduckgo-d-20

With a little effort you can gain LMM as fast vegan as you can eating animal flesh.

Saying you cannot get enough protein on a vegan diet carries no weight = you just need to learn more.

> I'm a 30yo female 5'4'' 135lbs looking to replace fat with lean muscle.

The best advice would be to lift weights while eating in a caloric deficit. Tweaking your macros, without impacting your overall calories, will likely make little/no difference unless your current macros are goofy.

I just make sure I hit my protein goals (~0.6-0.8g/lb bodyweight, so 120-140g), then try to get at least 30-50g fat a day, and make up the rest in carbs, ~200-300g.

For protein, I like to get from whole foods. Beans, nuts, and seeds are my main sources. Soybeans are really high. If you still can't meet your macro goals, you might reconsider the amount of protein you're consuming, or get some processed foods. I only use protein powder for one shake a day because it's convenient, but there is also seitan/gluten, tofu, nutritional yeast (> 50% protein), soybeans, explore asia products, tempeh, TVP...

I found this tub and it looks like a great deal. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00JL6ZKFE/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=A1O9I0PFIHK5TL&psc=1

But is there something you mean about an incomplete amino acid profile? I'd hate to buy 7 lbs of pea protein and find out it was missing something.

I’ve been rocking Naked Pea from Amazon lately. The chocolate flavour is much more bearable than the unflavoured kind.

This is what I buy. I don't go through enough to justify buying a 20kg bag.

Now Sports Pea Protein... get the unflavored version (no sweeteners) and if you can't stand the taste mix it with some peanut butter powder (like PB2) or cocoa... about 30g of protein.

Amazon

Check it out on Amazon! It has 20g protein and 2 servings of greens. I don't like it straight, I always add it to smoothies.

Here it is. They also failed to mention that it's Prime exclusive.
