Plant-based fitness and sport

Questions this hub answers

Can you build muscle on a vegan diet?

Yes. Total daily protein and progressive overload drive hypertrophy; studies matching protein intake find no difference in muscle gain between plant and animal protein sources.

Should vegan athletes supplement creatine?

Often useful. Vegans typically have lower muscle creatine stores, and 3–5 g per day of synthetic (animal-free) creatine monohydrate reliably raises them.
