    Most people eat animal products.

    Also, a good portion of vegans are “healthy hippy” types. Which rarely spills over to strength athletes.

    But there are some vegan strength athletes, so it goes to show it’s possible.

    Not sure what you mean by this tbh.

    Seems like a very forceful attempt to correlate things that have no evidence for relation at all.

      I had some info (meat = strength), got new info (vegan = few champions, mostly speed/endurance). Pointing out that with the small amount of vegan athletes there is, they still make it to the top. But they are not vegans since birth. I did say I was thinking out loud. Apparently that’s a sin for some people.

        The issue is that’s not info, those are assumptions.

        No sin, in thinking out loud. But what you’re saying easily falls apart if you think about it even a little bit.

          Yeah, history is not info. And of course the “no, your are wrong” irrefutable argument.

            Meat = strength is not a fact, or “info”, or history. Also saying vegans are all endurance athletes. That’s an assumption. Both are assumptions.
