I ride and "gym out" 5 times a week. Been a Vegan longer than I care to remember. My primary source of protein are super pea and rice protein isolate from Bulk Powders. I either just drink shakes or make "protein bars" (dates, prunes, dark chocolate blended with protein powder). Only cos I'm too lazy to cook properly and most of the time I'm stuck on a mono-diet composed of banana and peanut smoothies.

Considering taking the plunge into the unknown today. Have been watching a few documentaries about the topic, read a few articles also. My girlfriend currently works at a health food store, and studied bio-medical science and we have both been openly talking about the ideas of cutting back and cutting meat out completely of our diets. Reasons behind it are the cruelty to the animals and also the health benefits of restricting or cutting out animal products in one's diet.
A friend sent me this video this morning, and it has made me really consider the idea even more : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K36Zu0pA4U
However, I am worried, well scared of the unknown to be honest.
my concerns are:
Sorry to be boring, thought I'd just ask peoples experiences, we all ride, do some of you guys gym also? What foods do you use for energy fat/ protein sources?
-Protein I have: Peas, Avocado, pulses, beans
-Fats/ energy: Fruits, vegies, pasta, vegan bread,
Sorry for spam.
Cheers
