Man, this world...sometimes I think a more substantial virus than Corona is the only cure for mans greed and wanton wastage...disgusting.

wow. That story is hardcore.

 

People are gross.

Agreed, its terrible what we do to animals. I don't know how people live with themselves doing this. If those animals have to be killed then surely there is a more humane way...but I suppose its all about the bottom line and choking hundreds of animals to death overnight is the cheapest option....

As a cyclist. How do you lose weight without losing muscle in the process?

 

Reduce your calorie intake ovcourse but do you cut back on calories as a whole or only carbs. I trained insane this past week and didn't eat bread. I still ate 2250-2600 calories worth of food just like I would with the bread.

I felt like I didn't have enouth energy.

 

My brother is an incredible cyclist and lost 6kg (2kg creatine) in 4 weeks before a race. He couldn't help losing muscle as well because he went on a calorie deficit.

Muscle mass needs protein to "survive" a calorie deficit. Feed sufficient protein, and you'll be in a better place for muscle sparing.

I've seen footage on reddit of pigs getting killed similarly.

They crank up the heat and then release a non toxic gas. Takes up to 15min???? to kill the pigs while they go ballistic and die.

It's standard practice in America and its said that up to 25% of meat comes from this practice of killing. Statistic might not be accurate????‍♂️ but you get the point.

 

SA might not be as advanced but I've seen my Nigerian neighbors slaughter goats in their backyard. The goat will scream for minutes until it has bled out. I saw everything, he even used a normal kitchen knife. (I live in a proper neighborhood by the way????)

 

They kill a goat / bokkie twice a year and even keep rabbits in cages with no place to roam free.

But it doesn't really bother me, police won't give a $hit, I'm sure it might not be legal to kill an animal that big in your backyard.

And the world wonders why its in such a mess.....!

FFS morph. What a great way to store rice when out riding. Only problem is it's luby.

We all know there as some nastys in meat people don't want to consume right?

 

High cholesterol, too much heme iron can be bad includeing an eccential amino acid called methionine which biosynthesize a non essential amino acid which can't be found in food called homocysteine.

 

The body is very very capable of getting rid of bad stuff. Cardio helps a lot to detoxify the body.

 

Let's take bodybuilders for instance. Just imagine eating 2 chicken a day. Just because you have muscle doesn't mean your body will more easily get rid of the excess bad stuff. Your body has almost no control of how much heme iron it absorbes because it gets absorbed so quickly and effectively.

Non heme iron (plants) is slowly absorbed and can be regulated.

Typhoon Maysak: cargo ship with dozens of crew and almost 6,000 cattle feared capsized near Japan

 

It seems a lot, then you realise 6000 is only 3/4 of 1 percent that's killed every day. Tough way to go.

Good thing that much of the sea creatures are not Vegan!

My friend made me crash today. I was busy making a left turn. He rode infront of me while we made the turn and his rear wheel clipped my front wheel. No doubt he was at fault by overtakeing me on a left turn also while being on my left side.

 

My bib is torn, my front wheel is buckled and my new sella seat is destroyed.

 

He didn't admit that he was at fault.

I'm not going to blame him and tell him that it's his folt.

Does he atleast own me a new bib?

How does this work?

I think you’re trolling but I’ll ask anyway. How does this apply to veganism?

 

 

Edit: if you hit his rear wheel then you were at fault. You rode into the back of him. Oh and it’s spelled f-a-u-l-t

I'm not trolling I'm the fkn god of veganism. I'm the Jean-Claude Van Damme of veganism. I'm a level 5 vegan, I eat nothing that casts a shadow.

I became the plant by harvesting energy from the sun breathing nothing but CO2 at day and breathing Oxegyn at night. That's what real vegans do, they improvise, improve and adapt.

 

Glycogenolysis

Krebs cycle

Oxidative phosphorylation

You will find me riding 11/7 in delta park feeding off of the grass. That's why I'm called grass muncher.

 

Sorry, I'm just trolling you for fun now.

Yes I'm vegan, I just wanted to ask a question on this forum as I'm lonely and have no friends. The only thing I'm dificient in is vegan friends.

Why not ask people on this forum as they already know me ????‍♂️
