NBSV 004: Dr. Anastasia Zinchenko on 5 vegan nutrition and strength training myths (Part 1)
Dr. Anastasia Zinchenko (PhD in biochemistry, international competing powerlifter and bodybuilder, all-around vegan badass) joins us on the show to bust 5 different vegan fitness, nutrition, and health myths. The myths we bust in episode 4: 1. Protein! We discuss a variety of myths surrounding veganism and protein, including "you can't build muscle on plants", and "plant proteins aren't complete proteins". 2. Why (and when) eating a 100% whole foods diet might not be the best option for your health and athletic training. The myths we bust in episode 5: 3. The concept of moderation - applied to healthy foods! Why (and when) eating large quantities of healthy foods can be problematic. 4. High carb diets - the good, the bad, the ugly. 5. Why the typical bodybuilder training ‘split’ routine is not effective for most people - and how to train instead. Go to www.nobullshitvegan.com/004 for our show notes!
