I used to be a gym rat and could bench press a max of 240 lbs 6 reps despite being only 5' 5'' tall. My leg press were at 300lbs, etc.

I tried being a vegetarian during my gym rat days but I got so weak, tired and my muscles doesn't seem to get back to its normal strenght. It took my muscles very long to recover.

Obviously it doesn't work for me. Anyone here could sustain a strong body despite being vegetarian?

Seriously, I doubt that would work unless you just run an hour on a threadmill and do some light weights after.
