Want to ditch meat, but not muscle? Commit to vegan values without
sacrificing your strength? Balance optimal fitness with a
plant-based diet using this lifestyle guide. Former firefighter
Edric Kennedy-Macfoy didn't believe that was possible to go vegan
and stay fit when he first began to think about veganism. He was a
committed carnivore, with a fridge full of animal protein. His job
required peak physical strength, so building bulk was essential.
Abandoning meat was the last thing he expected of his future. That
all changed after watching an eye-opening documentary, and
overnight he became a vegan. Years of study and research later,
Edric is now a health and fitness coach helping people transition
into a vegan lifestyle, while keeping or building their physical
strength. In The Fit Vegan, you will discover: * The wide-ranging
benefits of plant-based nutrition and how this lifestyle can enrich
your life * What to eat, where to shop and how to keep your social
life intact * Edric's 12-week fitness plan to help you become the
strongest, leanest version of yourself * How to increase your
stamina, bounce back from injury faster, develop lean muscle and
improve your mental health No matter your reason for taking the
first step, The Fit Vegan will help you on the journey to becoming
your best self.
There once was a nurse-turned-pharmaceutical sales manager who had
always partied hard, chain smoked, eaten as many bacon sandwiches
as she liked and exercised just enough to 'stay fit'. One day, she
decided to take up yoga (because it seemed like a great way to get
a toned butt). Little did she know that this snap decision, made
out of curiosity and vanity, would change her life forever, leading
her on a journey to organic, plant-based, raw food health, one
delicious bite at a time.
A restorative bowl of vegetarian ramen sent Lukas Volger on a quest
to capture the full flavour of all the one-bowl meals that are the
rage today but in vegetarian form. With the bowl as organiser, the
possibilities for improvisational meals full of seasonal produce
and herbs are nearly endless. Volger's ramen explorations led him
from a simple bowl of miso ramen to a glorious summer ramen with
corn broth, tomatoes, and basil. From there, he went on to the
Vietnamese noodle soup pho, with combinations like caramelised
spring onions, peas, and baby bok choy. His edamame dumplings with
mint are served in soup or over salad, while spicy carrot dumplings
appear over toasted quinoa and kale for a rounded dinner.
Imaginative grain bowls range from ratatouille polenta to black
rice burrito with avocado. And unlike their meatier counterparts,
these dishes can be made in little time and without great expense.
Volger also includes many tips, techniques, and indispensable base
recipes perfected over years of cooking, including broths, handmade
noodles, sauces, and garnishes.
