The Living Machine: Engineering Strength with a Plant-Based Diet

In this daring book, Bradie S. Crandall challenges the pervasive assertion that you need to eat meat to grow big and strong with the highest quality and most up-to-date science available. Viewing the human body as a machine, he uses his training as an engineer to dissect common misconceptions surrounding the controversial nutritional landscape with ease. Within this text is a bold new dietary approach for strength athletes. Bradie asserts that a diet featuring plants could potentially be more conducive to building strength and mass than a diet featuring animal products. He breaks down the science and helps explain why across professional athletics, more and more elite athletes are adopting plant-based diets. Praise for Bradie S. Crandall and The Living Machine: “The Living Machine is a calculated look at the human body as a mechanical object and how a plant-based diet might be the ideal fuel for power and performance as well as health. Finally, a book that explains in great detail how an increasing number of athletes have been able to thrive on a vegan diet, without exaggeration or pseudoscience. This is the manual for plant-based performance I wish I’d had when I started.” -Nick Squires, International Powerlifting League World Champion
