Patrik Baboumian - Why Germany's Strongest Man went Vegan?

Patrik Baboumian, a powerlifting world record holder and winner of Germany's Strongest Man, explains why he went vegan.

Shortly after taking meat and other animal products off his menu, Patrick felt a huge improvement in both his overall health and recovery times. Moreover, changing what he ate helped him to become stronger and break power-lifting records.

Patrick Baboumian's vegan journey is particularly inspiring because it's a powerful example of a man who decided to do right by the animals, and instead of it hurting his power-lifting career, the opposite happened. Part of Patrick's professional journey can be seen in Netflix's outstanding documentary The Game Changers.

This lecture took place at The 3rd Vegan Congress in Tel Aviv, organized by Vegan Friendly.
