No-Bullsh!t Vegan ·

2018/10/08

One of the trends in vegan nutrition is the “alkaline diet”, or the idea that we should be eating a balance of “acidifying” and “alkalizing” foods, with an emphasis on those that are “alkalizing”. In this episode, I go through why the alkaline diet theory is not supported in the research, and also a common myth in the vegan world: the idea that meat is unhealthy because it "acidifies" our bodies. I include material written by vegan strength athlete and PhD in molecular biology, Christine

Nadia lives 10 hours away from the nearest city, in the middle of the Outback. She orders her groceries a week in advance, which get delivered by truck. There are no commercial gyms in her town. Her unique situation won’t be shared by a lot of our listeners, but this episode illustrates the “where there’s a will, there’s a way” concept - both for veganism and for strength training. Nadia has made some incredible strength gains, and she’s also made a dramatic mindset shift about nutrition and

2018/09/18

In a discussion with one of our episode 27 guests, an unvaccinated baby was mentioned. It wasn't the main topic of conversation, and it wasn't the guest's own child, but this topic is too important to ignore. I put together a short bonus episode addressing some of the most common myths about the risks of vaccination. Choosing to not vaccinate your children is putting their lives at risk. It's as simple as that.

Jeffrey discusses why a vegan lifestyle is imperative for all Jews and Christians, the Dominion verse in the Bible, and how he’s personally benefitted from a vegan lifestyle. Maria discusses her experience with her family (her partner is a “big meat eater”), how her nurse and doctor colleagues respond to her veganism (spoiler alert: it’s not always positive), and how she incorporates preventative health into her work.

2018/08/28

Mike Howard is on the show to talk busting BS in the fitness & diet industry (including keto, paleo, the myth that “calories don’t matter”, and more). We also discuss how you can tell whether a certain fitness or nutrition claim is bullshit. Some gems from Mike: “If we’re not pissing off the extremists to some degree, we’re not properly doing our job.” “If they claim that it’s fast, that it’s really easy, and that it’s permanent - that’s your holy trinity of bullshit.” “Moderation doesn’t sell.

Izzy Pope-Moore (a real-life vegan superhero) joins us to share her story of veganism, strength training, and kicking major obstacles squarely in the ass. She went through a serious abdominal surgery that involved 9 incisions, and shares her no-bullshit, no-excuses approach to recovery. She'll also share with you how she addresses the unfortunately still-present myth that vegans are unhealthy and weak, and the myth that it’s too hard to be vegan, especially in social situations and while

Thanks to some excellent questions from our awesome listeners, I'm covering losing weight on a vegan diet, pre- and post-workout supplements, what I think about vegan keto (spoiler alert: it's bullshit), plant-based protein powder options, quirky habits I have (thanks to my friend Holly for submitting a question that gets me talking about my weirdness on the show...), creatine for non-lifters, plant-based diets and thyroid function, strength training rep ranges for weight loss, and much more.

2018/08/07

Rachel King is here to talk about being vegan in a *very* un-vegan part of the world, how she navigates family events where nobody else is vegan, her past personal experience as a “professional dieter”, and her current experience strength training while on a vegan diet. I brought Rachel on the show today because she exemplifies the no-bullshit vegan lifestyle. Seriously, if she can be vegan in the Deep South of the US (rural Alabama, to be exact), I’m fairly certain that you can be vegan

2018/07/31

Competitive strength athlete Matt Terry is here to share his incredible story of veganism for the first time. We also discuss veganism as it relates to strength sports and building muscle, protein, supplementation, and more. Matt hasn’t yet shared his story and wanted a vegan platform to tell it. I’m honoured to have him on the show to share his story of overnight veganism - stemming from health issues including a ruptured appendix and a kidney tumour - and how being vegan has changed his life.

No-Bullsh!t Vegan ·

2018/07/24

The idea that it’s always a bad thing to compare ourselves to others is BS. Comparing yourself to others can be extremely useful, if you challenge yourself to think like a scientist. We’re going to use the critical thinking skills used by scientists to conduct literature reviews, and apply them to comparing ourselves to others - especially when we’re doing so to set fitness & physique goals. I suggest how to compare yourself to others so it benefits you, rather than undermines your self-worth.

Emma Green is a PhD candidate at the University of East London, with a Masters degree in health psychology. She’s also a qualified personal trainer. Emma is vegan herself, but today we’re discussing topics that aren’t exclusive to veganism. Given her health psychology background, we’re talking about why motivation is overrated, the value of building habits, myths about willpower, how cognitive biases factor into our decision-making and thought processes, and that mindfulness is not just a "woo"

Daniel Austin (The Vegan Meathead) is a 13-year vegan, powerlifting competitor, and member of the international vegan athletic team PlantBuilt. We discuss 5 points: There's no evidence that overcompensating protein consumption on a vegan diet is harmful, the benefits of eating more fat calories, supplementation is necessary for anyone who subjects their body to a lot of stress, tips for adopting a vegan strength lifestyle, and why more vegans should be in strength sports.

She works with women in their 30's & 40's who want to be strong and energetic, role models for their kids, and also want to avoid their pelvic floors falling out of their bodies in the next few years! Online training is a new concept, so it makes sense that people don’t know much about it, and perhaps have misconceptions about it.

I didn’t do any prep, so you get whatever pops into my brain. I discuss foam rolling, supplements for vegan strength training, organic foods, coffee, cooked vs. raw foods, keto, vegan party recipes, travelling as a vegan, weight loss, and accordions… (I accidentally labelled 2 questions as #20, so you get a bonus question and

We discuss some extremely important concepts within the vegan movement: the idea of veganism as an echo chamber and "in-group" and why this is a problem, the types of activism that have been shown to work (or backfire), the importance of being critical within a movement, diversity and inclusivity within veganism, and much more. Daniela is the founder of the Social Change Makers Society, which provides individuals and communities a unique platform for all social justice issues.
