From a scrawny teenager to a professional bodybuilder and a dedicated advocate for veganism—Robert Cheeke's journey has been nothing short of remarkable. Growing up on a small family farm, Robert had a deep connection with animals. The farm was home to cows, goats, chickens, and rabbits, and Robert actively participated in their care. However, as he became more aware of the ethics surrounding animal agriculture, he began questioning the practices they followed. Robert's transformative journey towards veganism began at the age of 15, largely inspired by his older sister's commitment to animal rights. She organized an animal rights week at their high school, exposing Robert to powerful videos and literature that shed light on the immense suffering endured by animals in factory farming. It was a turning point in his life. Transitioning to a vegan lifestyle wasn't without its challenges, especially within his family. Robert's father was an animal science professor, and his brother was actively involved in farming. Despite their differing dietary choices and ethical beliefs, Robert's family remained supportive. They even went the extra mile by accommodating his vegan diet with plant-based options from their garden. This aspect of Robert's journey taught him about the complexities of navigating family dynamics while adhering to a set of values that diverged from the norm. Robert's commitment to veganism extended beyond ethical considerations; it encompassed a desire to prove that one could achieve exceptional physical feats on a plant-based diet. This passion led him down the path of vegan bodybuilding. He wanted to inspire others to embrace this lifestyle, reduce animal suffering, and showcase the incredible potential of plant-based living. In the early days of his bodybuilding journey, Robert relied on plant-based protein supplements to support his training and muscle growth. He experimented with various sources of plant-based protein, including soy, rice, and pea protein, to meet his nutritional needs. However, Robert's perspective on nutrition experienced a significant shift in 2012 when he enrolled in Dr. T. Colin Campbell's plant-based nutrition course at eCornell University. This eye-opening experience challenged his beliefs about sports nutrition and supplementation. It emphasized the significance of whole foods in achieving not just physical strength but also overall health and vitality. The dedication and unwavering commitment to a whole food, plant-based diet paid off in Robert's bodybuilding career. He not only won competitions but also graced magazine covers and set strength records. One such record includes a bench press of 345 pounds, a testament to the remarkable strength achievable through plant-based nutrition. Beyond his achievements in bodybuilding, Robert discovered a new passion for writing and teaching. Inspired by mentors and friends, he began sharing his knowledge through books, speaking engagements, and educational endeavors. His ability to inspire and motivate others has turned him into an international ambassador for the plant-based lifestyle. Robert's legacy extends far beyond his personal accomplishments. His contributions to the vegan bodybuilding and fitness communities have helped countless individuals embrace plant-based living, achieve their fitness goals, and find like-minded communities. It's a testament to the transformative power of dedication, compassion, and a whole food, plant-based lifestyle. His story serves as a reminder that anyone can lead a fulfilling life while making a positive difference in the world through their actions and choices. We invite you to join Robert on this journey to a compassionate, healthy, and sustainable lifestyle.

Have you ever wondered about building muscle on a plant-based diet? My friend Jordan Dranes has been a vegan for the last nine years, and he just so happens to be incredibly jacked. We discussed how he built so much muscle on a plant-based diet and if it's possible for you as well. We talked about his reasons behind becoming a vegan, including animal cruelty. Regardless, if you love meat or are vegan, I ask that you go into the show with an open mind. I respect Jordan as a vegan, because he never tries to push his beliefs on you, which we also discussed.

Vegan Booty TALKS: ENERGY DRINKS!Season 2 Episode #71In this Episode ALL ABOUT ENERGY DRINK :- what of them are vegan?- is energy drink really bad?- are they better than pre-workout?- what is the best energy drink to have?- are they really harmful to the human body?Energy drinks are big, big business and people use them for a range of reasons. They aren't for everyone, due to the high levels of sugar, caffeine and artificial additives found in many varieties, but if you need a quick energy boost they certainly have their advantages. However, the question here isn't whether they are desirable as a choice of beverage, or even whether they work. The question is, are the likes of Red Bull, Monster and other popular energy drinks vegan?The term “energy drink” can mean different things to different people. Orange juice, for example, is high in sugar and will provide a quick burst of simple carbohydrates to fuel aerobic activity. Equally, a double espresso offers a rapid caffeine injection. However, for the purpose of this article, we are talking about energy drinks, such as Red Bull, Monster and Relentless, as well as similar beverages that are firmly marketed as energy drinks and which usually contain added caffeine.CONNECT WITH Avrora: avroraprofit.comWORKOUTS and FITNESS PLANT BASED LIFE: @avroraprofit RECIPES: @vegan_curlPRESS HERE: Youtube "AvroraProFit"Register for CONSULTATION WITH AVRORA Press Here AVRORAPROFIT.COM TRY AMINO COMPANY BCAAs: Website: aminoco.com/AVROFITVisit the link  aminoco.com/AVROFIT and get 30% OFF with  discount code  "AVROFIT"Thank you for listening! All my favorite things YOU CAN TRY WITH SALE CODE “AVROFIT”@aminocompany best pre/post workout supplements @goodcravings best protein bars @nocow high protein vegan bars@the_ambrosia_collective vegan supplements @professornutz_ peanut butter@squeez_me_skinny waist trainer@nutilight HAZELNUT

What Is Vegan Bodybuilding Interview With Dani Taylor by Chef AJ

We're honored to introduce you to a fellow kale-loving athlete, Dominick Thompson. Imagine growing up poor in Chicago's west side, witnessing your first murder at age 5, doing whatever it takes to protect yourself and provide for your family, and going to prison at age 21 – all while still excelling in school, athletics, and work. It's a background that is so different from most, but such an important story to tell because, to understand Dom now, you simply have to look back on his past. Today, Dom is a beautiful humble soul who defies every stereotype we have of a “tough guy.”  He's an activist, bodybuilder, endurance athlete, dog dad,  and social entrepreneur, known for his businesses, Eat What Elephants Eat and Crazies and Weirdos. It's even more fascinating to learn that Dom went vegan during his first week of prison. Unbelievable.  He had a spiritual epiphany and the decision to stop eating animals completely transformed his life.  His mantra? “If it requires harm, then nahhh.”  Today, he gives us a riveting look at his past and discusses that spiritual shift that informs his present-day work as an activist and social entrepreneur.  “When you eradicate harm from your life, the universe has your back,” he says. We couldn't agree more.   Episode Resources Watch the Episode on YouTube - https://youtu.be/3cD-KXOAJ28  Eat What Elephants Eat Crazies and Weirdos Follow Dom on Instagram - @domzthompson Follow Dom on TikTok - @domzthompson   Join Team PLANTSTRONG and Run with Rip! https://plantstrongfoods.com/pages/team-plantstrong To stock up on the best-tasting, most convenient, 100% PLANTSTRONG foods, including our new granola and teas, check out all of our PLANTSTRONG products HERE.

Natural VS Unnatural bodybuilding In this EPISODE Avrora talks about Olympia 2022 and her competition season. Also, she broke down the differences between natural bodybuilding and is it worth it to use steroids.Natural Bodybuilding Naturally bodybuilders do not use any sort of synthetic steroids or other drugs in order to build more muscle mass or get leaner. They entirely rely on lifting heavy weights, consuming a healthy diet and getting plenty of rest.Natural bodybuilders may not be able to put on as much muscle mass as steroid users but they build muscles that are long lasting and sustainable.Besides building muscles that last, they have a better overall health and faster metabolism.It reduces blood pressure, increases bone density and keeps cholesterol levels under control. It improves your metabolism, reduces your fat percentage and is a great stress buster.Steroid BodybuildingThese builders use Anabolic-androgenic steroids. These drugs are a synthetic form of testosterone (the male hormone), are injected into the body for quick benefits but are illegal in most competitions.Steroids may give you the pump to train at a higher level than you could possibly do naturally. Your recovery rate would be faster, you would be able to train for longer and build more muscle mass but all of this comes with several side effects and are potentially dangerous, in the long run!Some of the serious side- effects of taking steroids for bodybuilding include:Hormonal Imbalances – Suppressed Testosterone Production Infertility, low libido, testicular atrophy, Gynecomastia (breast tissue growth in a man) Accelerated Hair lossSkin issues- Acne/oily skinIncreased heart rateIncreased LDL Cholesterol, Hypertension, Increased risk of Stroke/Heart attackLiver ToxicityKidney Damage, Fluid retentionMental Health Issues, Insomnia, Mood SwingsIncreased risk of premature DEATH. What's your opinion on that? CONNECT WITH Avrora: avroraprofit.comWORKOUTS and FITNESS PLANT BASED LIFE: @avroraprofit RECIPES: @vegan_curlPRESS HERE: Youtube "AvroraProFit"Register for CONSULTATION WITH AVRORA Press Here AVRORAPROFIT.COM Thank you for listening! All my favorite things YOU CAN TRY WITH SALE CODE “AVROFIT”@aminocompany best pre/post workout supplements @nocow high protein vegan bars @the_ambrosia_collective vegan supplements @professornutz_ best peanut butter @squeez_me_skinny belt @golinutrition apple cider gummy's @goodcravings best protein bars @nutilight my favorite vegan HAZELNUT
