aw thanks, I tried! Scott is good stuff.

Great tips and information. Thank you.

just got off my 4.5 mile trail run for the day (nothing compared to Scott~) but, this is like heaven to get his tips directly from him. I feel so lucky right now. the heel / forefront stuff was gold... just seeing him demonstrate with his own two legs was worth a million to me. thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed the whole thing! good personalities from both guys too :)

Good video, I enjoyed it thanks!!

reading the Scott's book right now. He is amazing! thank you for the interview

I will run from him, falling forward, relaxed, upright, with feet landing gently beneath me.

Was waiting for the question on how to eat while on a competition race whether marathon or adventure run as i guess you may risk appendicitis (though studies do not readily find link to running in full stomach) in my own opinion.

Amaranth and buckwheat are also vegan protein staples. Sprout 4 cups of buckwheat and mix with date paste (dates and water in blender) with some salt and Ceylon Cinnimon and throw in in the dehydrator for 24 hours.

is here Scott really wearing Garmin Fenix 1 ? :-D I have had those :-)

Great interview! As a vegan runner on a 90/5/5 diet I am wondering: What does he need all that protein for? The lower limit for humans is 2.5% of total calories. You can not get that low if you eat whole foods. Example: Bananas have 4% protein, including all essential amino acids. WHO recommendation is 5%, that is 2.5% + 100% safety margin - more than plenty! Taking into account that most vegetables and greens are much higher in protein (examples: Tomato ~15%, kale ~15%), I find it sometimes difficult to stay below 10%, especially whenever we have beans, peas or lentils. It is very easy to get above 10% which seems to be too much: Body odor comes back, energy levels and recovery times are not as good...

Plant-based diets are less dense in calories than other dietary patterns. You probably aren't eating enough calories. Focus on grain, legumes, and tubers (starches -- foods rich in complex carbohydrates) for the staples of your diet.

let's focus on the important things

I disagree with Scott a bit about protein and worrying about the other individual components of the diet. As long as you're eating whole plant foods including lots of leafy greens, you're going to get more than enough protein, fatty acids, etc. I'd also recommend avoiding oil, which is nothing but a processed food, extremely calorically dense, and nutritionally deficient.

@rickcyclist5844

9 жыл бұрын

I used to think that but it doesn't work for me since I don't eat too many carbs. Building an aerobic base teaches the body to prioritise burning fat and protein as fuel, as opposed to carbohydrates. If I don't supplement with a protein drink - I use either wheatgrass or hemp powder in a smoothie - I get pretty gaunt.
