WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT AND GAIN MUSCLE, WITHOUT AN IMPOSSIBLE-TO-FOLLOW DIET?
settings
A 12-week blueprint for getting into the best shape of your life on a plant-based diet — without restricting all the foods you love.
settings
When it comes to getting in shape, it seems like everyone has the same goal, year in and year out: lose weight.
But have you ever thought about it? Is that really what you want?
Sure, shedding fat is crucial if you want to look and feel your absolute best. But for so many people — when weight loss is the only goal — the sad fact is that only once they reach the goal do they realize it's not what they were looking for after all. Why not?
Because it takes muscle to shape and add contour to the body. If you just "lose weight," all you do is become a smaller version of the same-shaped person. And for most people, that's not what they really want.
So if you say you want to lose fat, it's pretty likely that what you really want is to gain muscle, too. Not a ton of muscle. Not bodybuilder muscle. Just enough to be toned and lean, a striking example of the power of a plant-based diet.
But can you do both — gain muscle while losing fat? Absolutely. That's what we call a transformation.
And it all starts with food.

LET'S TALK ABOUT FOOD, SHALL WE?

When it comes to eating a plant-based diet, we don't need much convincing that it's the best choice for long-term health.
But strength, fitness, and muscle?
Talk to your friends, co-workers, and family members about your plant-based diet, and they instantly become nutrition experts, reminding you that you need lots of protein to get strong and stay fit, and the only way to get the right kind is by eating animal products.
The truth is, you started eating this way because you like to think for yourself and do what feels right.
But with the constant chatter in your ear about how it's impossible to eat a plant-based diet and be strong and healthy, it's no surprise that the doubts begin to creep in:
I've got good news: it's all possible on a plant-based diet, and simpler than you've probably imagined.
And if you're ready to learn how, you're in the right place.

- Am I getting enough protein (and is plant protein good enough)?
- Does a vegan diet actually work for building muscle (and not just endurance training)?
- Do I need to eat differently to put on muscle and shed fat?
- What kind of workouts will help me get lean and muscular, to shake off the "skinny vegan" stereotype?
- Am I going to need a bunch of fancy equipment, or a gym membership?
I've got good news: it's all possible on a plant-based diet, and simpler than you've probably imagined.

MEET MY FRIENDS GIACOMO MARCHESE AND DANI TAYLOR
settings
Giacomo and Dani of VeganProteins.com aren't your average bodybuilders and trainers. For starters, they're 100% vegan, and have been for years, and co-founded PlantBuilt, the largest team of vegan strength athletes in the world.
Dani, vegan for 19 years, lost over 80 pounds before going on to be a competitive bodybuilder and figure champion. Giacomo, vegan for over 15 years, has dedicated his life to showing the world what's possible on a vegan diet, and in the process became both a bodybuilding and powerlifting champion.
They've both earned certifications in plant-based nutrition from eCornell, as well as personal trainer certifications, so they really know their stuff when it comes to sculpting your body on a plant-based diet.
And they've now gone on to coach thousands of regular people (not just gym rats or ultra-strong athletes) and help them get the body transformation they crave.
Today, they want to help you do the same.
Giacomo and Dani have joined the No Meat Athlete team to put together the Plant-Based Body Transformation, a blueprint for gaining muscle and losing fat, without a restrictive diet.
Their philosophy starts with building healthy habits, then introducing a diet philosophy that can work for anyone. And the strength training? It's not about spending hours in the gym every single day, but instead, focusing on short sessions that encourage muscle growth as your body burns fat.

I have worked with Dani Taylor since 2012. Thanks to Dani in the last 4 years I went from being a slightly overweight, slightly out of shape, woman in her early 30’s to a competitive natural bodybuilder.
Let me tell you how she changed my life…

INTRODUCING THE PLANT-BASED BODY TRANSFORMATION
settings
We've all had the frustration of heading to the pool or beach for the first time of the summer, wishing we could just go back in time — just a few months — and start eating right and working out so that you could be proud of you look.
Instead, you still feel weak, and don't have the physique you were hoping for. You're even a little embarrassed to represent a plant-based diet this way.
Maybe you even got started — you went on a diet or joined the gym — but without structure, new habits, or an end point, the goal slowly fizzled out...
...and now you're back to the same place you were before. As if you hadn't done anything at all.
Well, good news. No, I don't have a time machine. But you don't need one. Because now's the time. We're a few months out from summer, and in 12 weeks, you can change how you look and feel.
When a fitness program works — and you know that feeling when it is — three things almost always have to happen:
I'm so proud to share the newest No Meat Athlete program, which we created with Dani and Giacomo, and which combines these three essential elements with their years of bodybuilding experience, to help you go from where you are to the body you want and deserve...
...to lose fat, build muscle, and look the way you want to look, in just 12 weeks.

When a fitness program works — and you know that feeling when it is — three things almost always have to happen:
- The diet portion of the plan is flexible. If it's too restrictive, it never lasts for long.
- You actually get into the habit of working out. Meaning it stops becoming a huge struggle to get yourself out the door every single time.
- There's a finish line. Even if the goal is to ultimately turn it into your lifestyle, having a short-term endpoint is the lifeline that keeps you on track.

The Essential Nutrition Information
settings
Dani and Giacomo believe that physique changes start with nutrition, not the gym. So that's exactly where the program begins. It covers:
Part 1: An introduction to Flexible Dieting. We want you to succeed, and to do that, we know a restrictive diet won't work. The Flexible Diet approach we present in this program is designed to show you how you eat, without telling you what you can and can't consume. Instead, you take that strategy and apply it to your own needs and family situation... which means there are no "nevers" in this program, especially when it comes to your favorite foods.
Part 2: How to calculate your caloric and macro nutrient needs. Focusing on your personal nutrient needs is the foundation of the nutrition plan, and Giacomo and Dani share their proven approach to shaping the diet to fit your specific body and goals.
Part 3: The Flexible Diet in action. Once you understand how it works, they break down exactly what the diet will look like and how to structure your meals throughout the week.
BONUS: 7 meal blueprints you can custom tailor. To help you get started, we've created seven meal blueprints that start with the base ingredients, and build based on your taste and nutrition preferences.

The Macronutrient Cheat Sheet
settings
To increase your chances of success, we've made it as simple as possible to follow the plan by including a robust macronutrient cheat sheet with 85 common plant-based foods.
Print it out, put it on your refrigerator, and use it as a guide as you build and plan different meals. There's also a digital version you can use to auto-calculate macro nutrients so you know you're hitting your goals.

The Strength Training Plans
settings
Of course no muscle building guide would be complete without strength training plans! In this case, Giacomo and Dani have built four plans for you to build through throughout the program.
But before I talk about what the plans look like, let me share what they aren't:
They aren't plans built for the mega strong, but instead are an approachable starting point for everyone. And they aren't designed to keep you in the gym all day, every day. Just 30 minutes, 3-5 times per week is all you need to commit to these programs.
Alright, let's take a look at the plans:
You can stick with one routine the entire time, or cycle through and build from one to the next.

Alright, let's take a look at the plans:
- The Full Body Home Workout, designed to be done just three days per week with minimal equipment you probably already have sitting in your garage.
- The Upper / Lower Home Workout, with four days worth of exercises you can build on week after week.
- The Full Body Gym Workout, a step up from the Home workout, this three day per week routine cycles through a few key exercises using free weights and machines.
- The Upper / Lower Gym Workout, a four day per week routine targeting key physique focused muscle groups.

50 Exercise Videos
settings
Successful strength training isn't just about knowing what to do; it's also about staying injury-free and healthy.
Giacomo and Dani have recorded 50 exercise videos that cover each and every exercise in the four plans, to show you proper alignment and what to focus on when working out. So you'll have the confidence that comes from knowing you're doing each movement optimally, even if you're brand new to strength training.

The 12-Week Exit Strategy
settings
While the nutrition and strength plans are what will help you achieve your transformation, it's like this last part, the exit strategy, that is the most important.
Why? Because this is how you stay focused and motivated.
This program was designed for you to be able to move off of it when you're ready, without losing the benefits. It teaches you a new way of thinking about nutrition and a comfort level in the gym that, once you're ready, you can shape into whatever plan works best for you for the long term.
And best of all, with the new habits you'll create over just a few short weeks, continuing on in your own style will feel easy.

“I need help”, I said as I turned to my husband. I had decided to set the very lofty goal of bodybuilding after seeing a friend compete. I always struggled with my weight and this seemed like the perfect goal to finally achieve the fit body I always wanted and pairing it with my love of weightlifting. There was a problem though, where do I begin?
Through some online searching and talking with Giacomo, I was introduced to the majestic creature known as Dani. I’ve been working with her for about two years and it was the best decision I could have made. With her guidance and support I lost over 50 pounds and competed in three bodybuilding competitions where I placed 4th in two of them.

WHO SHOULDN'T BUY THIS PROGRAM?
settings
You're expecting me to say "Nobody!", right?
Nope, I'll be straight with you... as versatile as the Plant-Based Body Transformation program is, there are a few people who it probably isn't the right program for.
First, if you don't eat a plant-based diet or aren't interested in eating one, then you won't be into this (and by the way, what are you doing here?).
First, if you don't eat a plant-based diet or aren't interested in eating one, then you won't be into this (and by the way, what are you doing here?).
If you're already well-versed in strength training as a vegan — a fitness competitor or bodybuilder, for example — then you'll want something more tailored to your specific needs.
If you're 100% happy with your physique, and don't care to build muscle or lose weight, you probably won't have much use for something like this.
If you're 100% happy with your physique, and don't care to build muscle or lose weight, you probably won't have much use for something like this.
Finally, this program isn't the best bet for the very overweight, the frail elderly, or anyone with a moderately severe injury, as anyone in these groups requires a more specialized program.
Not in one of those groups? Then have at it!
