How can I gain muscle while following a vegan diet?

In order to gain muscle, supplying your body with enough calories and protein throughout your day is crucial, along with regular resistance training and sufficient sleep. 

While following a vegan diet, protein is going to be a nutrient that is more difficult to consume enough of, since all animal products are excluded. However, it's still possible to meet your daily protein needs. Including plant protein sources (e.g. soy, nuts) as well as consuming a plant-based protein supplement can help you get to your protein goal. 

For folks with a goal of gaining weight under a plant-based diet, we recommend our Everyday Plant Protein.

You can also try combining any of our protein blends with the Muscle Recovery Performance Boosts to create your own optimized Recovery blend!
