Korin Sutton: Mastering Vegan Fitness, Part 2 of 2

“The only milestones, I would say, from doing the body building and everything bodybuilding, did help me get out there to spread my message when it comes to veganism. Also, it could show I’m able to highlight and show people that what’s possible being on a vegan lifestyle, you could build muscle, you could be a high performing athlete.” “I’m also a semi pro chef. You can find it on my website called bodyhdfitness.com/shop, and with these recipes, these are pretty much the same recipes I use for my clients, so they can be able to make it more of a lifestyle. So, if they lost the weight, they can keep the weight [off ] forever and learn how to maintain a healthy physique.” “So, there’s really no difference of what I eat when I’m doing the sport of bodybuilding versus when I’m not doing bodybuilding. The only difference is the portion sizes, like I said before, I teach people how to incorporate their favorite foods and the healthiest foods and some of their comfort foods, and make it more of a lifestyle.”

His go-to recipes highlight the importance of portion control and hyper-nourishment. “And pretty much, I hyper nourish my body with tons of vitamins and minerals as well, because I believe in a hyper nourishment protocol, which means that I’m filling my body with tons of nutrients that over exceeds what it needs each day. Because this helps with energy levels, how your body functions, and includes overall wellness.” “The only advice I would give when it comes to consuming a plant-based diet for fitness and building muscle is, basically this: First you need to be in a slight caloric surplus. And then number two: you want to make sure you’re getting in the proper amount of protein, a proper amount of micronutrients and dietary fibers, so your body could perform at optimal levels, and then just work out.”
