Vegans can be strong too!
Don’t believe me? Check out some of the fine specimens in this pinterest gallery – they are all vegan athletes. I cannot say whether they have used certified vegan pre workout supplements or not but they have certainly done something to sculpt their bodies!
Vegan pre workout supplements
PurePump by DO Vitamins
Unfortunately being vegan limits the choices when it comes to foods and products you can consume. Well worry no more my vegan friends – there is now a certified vegan pre workout supplement just for you! It is PurePump by DO Vitamins, and as far as I know it is the only certified Vegan and Paleo product on the market. The fact that it is Vegan friendly in no way means that it is less effective – it is a quality pre workout said to lead to solid performance improvements. Check out more information on this and other natural supplements on the natural pre workout supplements page.
Cellucor C4 Extreme
Another pre workout supplement that many Vegan bodybuilders use is C4 Extreme by Cellucor. The label information does not explicitly say that it is Vegan friendly but the ingredients in it and the fact that many Vegan bodybuilders use it implies that it is Vegan friendly. A couple of misinformed internetters have written that the Beta Alanine in C4 could possibly be derived from chicken feathers but this is a pretty far fetched claim that I have seen no evidence of and highly doubt it. If I was Vegan I would not think twice about using Cellucor C4 and I know of several Vegan lifters that use it. You can read more about it in this C4 Extreme Pre Workout Review.

Spread the word Brad! Too many people think being vegan or vegetarian means you’re bound to be weaker.
I’ve read that vegetarians tend to have better muscular endurance.
Do you remember Edwin Moses, the US hurdler? I seem to recall he was a vegetarian and won just about every race he ran in for about a decade!
It is also sad how hard it can be to find healthy vegan options sometimes.
I don’t actually know him Mark, but wikipedia told me he was a great athlete, and as you said also a vegetarian. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwin_Moses Thanks for the info.
A good friend of mine is Vegan and it seems to make her life significantly harder than mine when it comes to eating. But it is something she feels strongly about, so good for her I say!
C4 is not vegan friendly. I sent them email and they replied creatine is from animal sources.
Thanks James, I will have to update my information once I can confirm this
It is vegan friendly.. The creatine they use is synthetic, so, all good ??
I use the C4 ripped which doesn’t have the creatine in it, would that mean that the ripped is Vegan?
Hi Kayla, yes I believe it is. How do you find the ripped formula compared to regular c4? Happy training!
