Robert grew up on a farm in Corvallis, Oregon where he adopted a vegan lifestyle in 1995 at the age of 15 years old, weighing just 120 pounds. He is now the author of numerous books such as, Vegan Bodybuilding &amp; Fitness, Shred It!, Plant-Based Muscle, and his newest release, The Plant-Based Athlete. He is often referred to as the “Godfather of Vegan Bodybuilding,” growing the industry from infancy in 2002, to where it is today. As a two-time natural bodybuilding champion, Robert is considered one of VegNews magazine's Most Influential Vegan Athletes. He tours around the world sharing his story of transformation from a skinny farm kid to champion vegan bodybuilder. He is a regular contributor to No Meat Athlete, Forks Over Knives, and Vegan Strong, is a multi-sport athlete, entrepreneur, and has followed a plant-based diet for more than 25 years. Robert lives in Colorado with his wife and two rescued Chihuahuas.</p> <p>The Plant-Based Athlete <a href="https://amzn.to/3xdajoD">https://amzn.to/3xdajoD</a></p> <p>Vegan Bodybuilding and Fitness <a href="https://amzn.to/3x0Zu8Y">https://amzn.to/3x0Zu8Y</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>Shred It! <a href="https://amzn.to/3ijvfWx">https://amzn.to/3ijvfWx</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>Plant-Based Muscle <a href="https://amzn.to/3wUb7yc">https://amzn.to/3wUb7yc</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>📱 Connect with @Bananiac</p> <p>• Website: <a href="http://bananiac.com/"><u>http://bananiac.com</u></a></p> <p>• YouTube: <a href="http://youtube.com/bananiac"><u>http://youtube.com/bananiac</u></a></p> <p>• Instagram: <a href="http://instagram.com/bananiac"><u>http://instagram.com/bananiac</u></a></p> <p>• Facebook: <a href="http://facebook.com/bananiac"><u>http://facebook.com/bananiac</u></a></p> <p>• Twitter: <a href="http://twitter.com/bananiac"><u>http://twitter.com/bananiac</u></a></p> <p>• Resources: <a href="http://www.bananiac.com/resources"><u>http://www.bananiac.com/resources</u></a></p> <p>• Fitbod: <a href="https://bit.ly/2SnJWeD"><u>https://bit.ly/2SnJWeD</u></a></p> <p>• Amazon: <a href="https://amzn.to/2ExPP3l"><u>https://amzn.to/2ExPP3l</u></a></p> <p>• Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/bananiac"><u>https://www.patreon.com/bananiac</u></a></p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thisisbananas/support" rel="payment">https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thisisbananas/support</a>
