If you take a look at vegetarians or especially Vegans you very really see a muscular one, even if they train because of inadequate amino acids and proteins which are essential for buiding and maintaining muscle mass. If you see one they are either generic freaks, are suplementing with protein powders and/or bcaa'a ( or steroids) which come from animal/dairy products but then they are true Vegan's are they?
Actually, there is one way a vegan can produce good amounts of muscle and that is Quinoa, it has been becomming very popular as it is the ONLY known non animal food that has all essential amino acids, it is a "COMPLETE PROTEIN" unlike beans etc.
