Bodybuilding with a Vegetarian Diet
Yes -- it’s possible.
When you’re trying to build muscle, it’s important to keep yourself open with diet variety. As Keto diets and protein diets with (impulsive amounts of chicken breast) have taken over in recent years, however, vegetable and plant-based food merely turned into a chicken breast’s side dish or food primarily served with a saucy steak. The preassumptions about vegetables degraded its reputation for building muscle.
The truth? You can build muscle and burn significant amounts of fat with plant-based meals alone.

You don’t actually have to switch your diet to a full-blown plant-based diet. Reserving at least 70-80% in your daily meal portions to hearty vegetables is already a good start. Plus, it gives you that extra glow that you can’t get from meat inclusive diets.
The key to building muscle with vegetables is by eating lots of them. Calories don’t really matter that much when you’re in a plant-based diet because these calories either contain more water or fiber. Want to change your habits?

1. Tofu
To match the macro benefits of chicken breast, double a standard serving of tofu and get up to 18-20 grams of protein. Regarding taste, tofu is best served fried (ideally in an air fryer) or baked. Mix it up with other vegetables, saute it and serve it with rice/quinoa and you’re good to go.2. Nuts
For that extra protein and healthy fats, keep some nuts handy for easy snacking. This is also best mixed with salads to add that little crunch -- somewhat an icebreaker.3. Beans, Seeds, and Legumes
Chickpeas, kidney beans, quinoa. Try to add these to your buddha bowl, salad, dip or make your own chickpea patty for that extra protein, fiber, and healthy carbs.
