Vegan bodybuilding community group

veganism is growing, and vegans love to connect with each other. Can you make a vegan community group? Especially for bodybuilders. Thanks

    You can make Community groups yourself, be the administrator, and make posts in the main part of the Community to seek members who want to join (within reason, respected the cross-posting limits mentioned in the Community Guidelines).

    MFP itself generally doesn't create groups, other than some it uses to communicate with volunteer moderators and people in other special administrative-ish roles. Regular users create the groups, generally.

    From being here for 10+ years now, and being vegetarian, what I've seen suggests it seems to be difficult to keep a vegan group going. This is the most recently active one I'm aware of, and it has pretty much withered to barely active lately:

    . . . and that one isn't vegan-only, but allows a wider range of plant-centric eaters.

    Honestly, since it's hard to keep a plant-centric group going, and seemingly even harder to keep a vegan-centric group going, I'm skeptical that a vegan bodybuilder focused group would have wide participation. I've only seen a handful of posts from people who specifically designate themselves that way. That's not a criticism - it's a great thing to do, a viable thing. I'm just saying it's not statistically very common here, IME.

    Best wishes!
