Are you eating a pound and a half of chicken a day? Most people building extra protein and consuming 100+ grams of protein are probably supplementing their protein intake.

I was going to retort but it is a fair point. I have reached more than 100g on whole foods but on most days I do rely on supplementation. Especially during a cut.

FYI just in case I have nothing against vegan bodybuilding or vegans in general. Mad respect for people who actually manage to successfully do it as I can’t imagine it being easy. I actually use vegan protein myself because it’s cheaper (tastes terrible though).

I appreciate the response. There definitely are challenges on a vegan diet for sure, just like with every diet. Although I think all protein powders and supplements taste bad.
