Summary: There are so many myths out there about being a vegan athlete! The most widespread is...don't you need lots of meat protein to be strong, have big muscles and lots of endurance? We've all heard it but is it true? We are very excited to have Robert Cheeke (www.veganbodybuilding.com), Amazon.com best-selling author of the book "Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness: The Complete Gude to Building Your Body on a Plant-Based Diet" to answer those (and many more) questions. Robert is not a stranger to the vegan lifestyle. He grew up on a farm in Corvallis, Oregon, where he adopted a vegan lifestyle in 1995 at the age of 15. Today he is a two-time natural bodybuilding champion and has been considered one of VegNews Magazine's Most Influential Vegan Athletes. He tours all over North America regularly, giving talks about his story of transformation from a skinny farm kid to champion vegan bodybuilder. Whether you are a body builder, budding athlete or just want to be a healthy, active vegan, please join us on Monday, August 29 at 8 pm (eastern) for "Vegan and the Living Is Easy" with our special guest, Robert Cheeke.
