Crystal. I used to love crocs but be careful. Last Nov I was walking just like you but on a gentle slope which was wet. Crocs have no grip. I slipped and broke my leg and foot!! No hiking, cycling and running for 9 months. Plus the humiliation of replying to people that my accident was caused by wearing crocs, not even by a sporting injury😫
That camera is amazing! Beautiful footage and so smooth! Hey, if you ever get a Ninja Creami could help us out with vegan healthy recipes? I’ve tried on my own and it hasn’t been super successful.❤
Derek, your eyes pop since you went bald. Your relationship with Crystal is one I've always wished I had. It's hard to find a partner that is healthy. Working out and vegan is like finding a unicorn. Beautiful couple.
My mom and I love your “what I eat in a day” videos - it’s so much fun seeing you and Crystal, and you guys always have some of the best meal ideas! It has inspired us so much! Thank you! 😊
Love when Crystal is in the videos. Be careful in those Crocs on wet surfaces, they go to zero traction quite easily. I know because that's all I wear LOL.
Inspiring and yummy stuff! With any luck I will start to feel better on a healthy plant-based diet. I have terrible fatigue when I eat healthily, and feel much better when I eat sugary junk! I need to stick to the former and allow my body to adjust... but it's so tough. I think it's an insulin sensitive issue and I am pre-diabetic (only just). The junk food calls to me and I live near to plenty of food shops. I go up and down by 20 pounds constantly 😥 I'll keep trying. Thanks for the videos.
Hi. Although I'm a part-time vegetarian only, I love to try any healthy dish. Your dishes look so good. I'll try to make your pasta dish one day! Thanks for sharing.
Hey Derek and Crystal, another great video. Just a quick Thankyou for sharing about Cronometer in previous videos. I use it almost religiously now days and I’m finding it incredibly helpful. Also the Renpho smart weight scales have helped me lose over 3.5kg of weight and drop my body fat content aswell. While lowering my metabolic age and increasing my overall protein intake. I’m in a hugely better place with my diet. You and Crystal have been a huge inspiration for that. So a big thankyou. Much love!
I love your and crystal’s content! I’m a young working professional and am getting into working out and eating healthy recently. I’d LOVE to see a gym workout session and any routines you do. Love your videos! Have a great day!
Hi Derek, just wanted to let you know that, unfortunately, I did not get any notification when you uploaded the video, even though my notification bell was on... Could it be why other fellow followers have not watched the video yet? And, of course, I can't wait to make that yummy pasta sauce! Thank you 😋.
Crystal you are a true Westcoast Canada gal!! My running buddies tease me about wearing my running skirts throughout the year while they are bundled up in multi-layers and wearing toques and gloves! 😂 Derek- I tried to chop my peppers the way you did…..didn’t turn out the same!! Nice editing!! 😂
Thank you so much Derek it’s always everything looks absolutely delicious. I bought some hummus yesterday and some fresh beets but I think I’ll add some beet powder to my hummus to make it as colorful as yours. I too love colors in oh my nails. By the way, I love your new camera ❤❤❤😋😋😋
Bought Seed for my husband. Will let ya know how things go. We are desparate to help his gut. Video was awesome as always. Thanks for all your Inspiration!
You guys are so fun! Meals looked delicious (as always!). Definitely going to try out that pasta sauce 🤌🏻 New camera looks great too, btw! Glad you’re having fun with it. New gear is the best 😆 🙌🏻
Derek, we need a slideshow of your lats size progression. I've seen the young runner pics and the more recent flexing. Insane. Also, the time it took to go from there to here, would be great. Helps to keep the expectations real for us.
Thanks! I haven't really documented the size of them but they have definitely grown over the 10ish years I've been consistently working out! Lots of wide pull ups haha
Loveeeee every video you make! My boyfriend is vegan and has gotten into body building and all of ur recipes have been amazing for him. Was wondering if you could ever do a video on meal prepping that doesn’t revolve around tofu or soy???
I was in Qualicum and tried the Korean barbeque tofu burger at Q burger. It was amazing by far best burger I’ve ever had in a restaurant. I have no affiliation with the restaurant. Just thought you and Crystal might like it. Thanks for sharing your amazing recipes like the deep fried tofu with sweet chili sauce 😋 and mung bean just egg I make into French toast.
Epic sky 😍 Derek, you are so buff now. I've been watching since you were a slimmer physique runner. I'd like to see a video on before and after now you've bulked up. Always a pleasure to watch ypur videos and love it when Crystal makes an appearance. I'm a 56yr old Croc lover 😂 I've made so many of your recipes/meals, keep em coming 😊
Derek, have you ever tried using miso in place of salt in your sauces/dressings? It's a great way to add more fermented foods in, but also adds a real depth of flavour. (I got the trick from Dr. Greger!)
Hello! Your meals always look so delicious… So are all the ingredients that you buy Whole Foods no additives plant-based? I’m wondering about that balsamic reduction sauce… I am fanatical about balsamic vinegar and that would be an amazing addition. Also, your pitas… Are they made with Oil?
Everything I eat is vegan, including the products I use! Although I am not sure if everything is additive free, it depends on what additives you mean. The balsamic reduction is by the company Nonna Pia and it's great. The pita's are oil free.
That pasta looks delicious! Any suggestions for a cashew substitution for those of us with nut allergies? Maybe tofu? 🤔 Thanks for these videos! The meal ideas are so appreciated.
Silken tofu would work great if you can find it. It's a smoother consistency compared to regular tofu and makes really nice sauces. Soft tofu could also work.
Love the crocs 😂🤣 You should try the Insta 360 X4 camera. It does not have a gimbal, but have a very stable horizon. It takes up way less space and you do not have to hold it vertical. It beat gimbal cameras while recording action videos - as well as being recording in 360 degree. You can put on an invisible selfie stick, so it is like a cameraman walking in front of you.
What are some of your tips for bulking and staying consistent? I have somewhat of a eating disorder and tried meal prepping but it gets too monotone for me. I obsessive about being too healthy as well and sometimes just don't know what to make.
Meal prepping is great, but it can get boring! I enjoy leftovers the next day but usually cook more rice/quinoa/potatoes/beans etc at one time, and then use them for a few days after in different meals. So it's not so boring.
I think it was 1/2 cup! but try a 1/3 and go from there. I like to soak them but you don't really have too if you have a strong blender, so you can always add more if you need too.
ok.... so I just have to say, you are looking fabuous! I last watched your videos when you were mostly doing plyometrics and basic movement. I say this now, and offer the compliment, because my son (who also lives on Vancouver Island) and I are in standing dissagreement over bodybuilding - naturally - as a vegan. He argues that it can't be done. I used to site Nimai as an example but my son called basically called him a 'one-of'. I will point him in the direction of your videos to see if he will allow me the 'I told you so...' (smiley face). And again... great job!!! And way to go on promoting the WFPB lifestyle. Cheers.

@@jilltinsleyIf you want vegan healthy Ninja Creami recipes, you might check out Kathy Hester’s channel. Hope you find something you like there.
Eat lots of almonds everyday, they are good for bone growth and bone strengthening.
Oh no that sounds horrible

That bell pepper chop edit was epic 🎉
haha thank you :D
Yeah right ? I had to rewind the video, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me 😅
I noticed it too! And I thought it was pretty cool.👍🏼
Impressive 👏👏👏
So much to love about Derek and his videos!
Hi Derek, can you do a video of what people can do to help osteoporosis, food and exercises to do at the gym.
4:24 LOVE THE BELL PEPPER EDIT!! I had to rewatch it multiple times . So cool.
Thank you!

@@SimnettnutritionThat's great! Thanks 👍
If you are healthy and want to build listen to this man and his lovely lady.
Cool new camera! Love how it follows you around can’t wait to see more videos with it.👍🏼
Thank you!
Can’t wait to try that pasta sauce. Thanks. Also those leaves and sky were spectacular. Wow.
Thank you so much!
Love seeing you and Crystal❤
These look great! I love the quick meal videos for inspo!
My wife and I would pay to hangout with guys haha you guys live the life and are such great people!
Hopefully our paths cross one day, that would be awesome and if you ever see me out there in the wild, say hi!
Hi Derek,
just wanted to let you know that, unfortunately, I did not get any notification when you uploaded the video, even though my notification bell was on...
Could it be why other fellow followers have not watched the video yet?
And, of course, I can't wait to make that yummy pasta sauce! Thank you 😋.
It popped right up for me on notifications. If you have a frequent problem, you may need to reset cookies, which I occasionally do.
That sauce looks incredible.
@@jessbennett828 Thank you so much for letting me know about it. I'll try to do that. I appreciate your help🙂.
I would love to see you on Tiktok as well. Those quick vegan recipe ideas and your workout plan would be so good on there
I need to try some flavoured houmous. Or make one myself! Crystal looked adorable ❤
Crystal you are a true Westcoast Canada gal!! My running buddies tease me about wearing my running skirts throughout the year while they are bundled up in multi-layers and wearing toques and gloves! 😂
Derek- I tried to chop my peppers the way you did…..didn’t turn out the same!! Nice editing!! 😂
That sauce sounds amazing. ❤
Thank you! It's super easy to make and delicious :D
You are an editing sorcerer. And the gains?? Wowza! Love all the meals too!
Thank you so much!
Awesome video, always grateful for new ideas and good reminders!
Been waiting for a new video! Warm hugs to you and Crystal!
Thank you! Hugs back :)
I made a lemon peel pesto which was almost identical. I love that sauce and have made it twice in the last month I loved it so much.
Thank you so much Derek it’s always everything looks absolutely delicious. I bought some hummus yesterday and some fresh beets but I think I’ll add some beet powder to my hummus to make it as colorful as yours. I too love colors in oh my nails. By the way, I love your new camera ❤❤❤😋😋😋
Bought Seed for my husband. Will let ya know how things go. We are desparate to help his gut. Video was awesome as always. Thanks for all your Inspiration!
Awesome! It's a great company and product, I hope it helps him!

I DO rage at pita! Thanks for the tip. I’ll try bringing pita back in my life.
haha they can be tricky for sure, but so good!
Why rage at the pita when you can just throw pizza stuff on top of them?
How did you chop those peppers with your hands?!? Amazing!!!
These all look delicious and I’m going to try all of them!
Have been having avocado issues lately too here in the US! And I baby those emerald gems. Idk what’s up, but glad ya got a good one! Great video 💚

No I haven't
I love my Crocs too! I have them in every colour.

What a sunset!
That lemon sauce looks so good. Beautiful color ⚡️
The color of the ice cream is my exact favorite color, that looked sooooo good.
I'd be using the jalapeno cilantro hummus on those pitas! 😋
Oh good call!
Great video as usual. I’m always looking for fast healthy meals. Thanks for sharing😊
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I am glad that my search for a yummy tapeworm is over lol.
Great video, awesome spirits as always. Would love to see the protein breakdown and not just a final number
Derek, have you ever tried using miso in place of salt in your sauces/dressings? It's a great way to add more fermented foods in, but also adds a real depth of flavour. (I got the trick from Dr. Greger!)
I am loving the shaved head!!
Thank you so much!
thank you for the great meal ideas!!!
Omg I want her crocs!
Great video. Love when you take us outside. I can't find smoked tofu very easily, dammit. 🤩
Love your videos! I'm not going to lie. You looked younger with hair. But either way you Rock dude!
I had almost the same breakfast except instead of cinnamon, I used strawberry jam with the PB & banana.
Sounds amazing!
Do U buy tofu already smoked, or do U smoke it in your home.
If U smoke the tofu, it be a great instruction video.
No, I buy it smoked, It's the brand Soyganic.
You need a NINJA CREMi! It's loud and it takes a bit longer than a blender, but the texture for "healthy" ice cream is AMAZING

Silken tofu would work great if you can find it. It's a smoother consistency compared to regular tofu and makes really nice sauces. Soft tofu could also work.
Thank you so much for responding! I hadn’t thought to use silken tofu & have some in my pantry. Yay! I’ll give that a try. Thanks again!
Loved this video, especiallly the stuffed pitas. Can you please tell me the brand of the smoked tofu? It looked so delicious.
The brand is Soyganic!
1:01 is that Tim Shieff? 😂😂 Crystal is so jokes
Looking forward to making that pasta sauce! 😊
Inspiring as always 🩵🪽🌱💜✨💪
such a great video, as always!!
Thank you!
Havnt seen you with a new sponsorship since the tongue-scraper (excluding the protein switch). Quite a surprise.
Time for lunch 🥗 thank you

Thank you so much!
That pasta dish looks amazing!
It's so tasty! Thank for watching :D
That lemon sauce looks delicious! I will make tonight, how much cashews did you use? Looks to be around a 1/3 cup?
I think it was 1/2 cup! but try a 1/3 and go from there. I like to soak them but you don't really have too if you have a strong blender, so you can always add more if you need too.
@Simnettnutrition thanks so much!
Dear lord, man!! The way you sliced that banana terrified me! 😮 😂😂
whoa, teach me that pepper trick!!!😲
It's a Simnett Secret ;)
That sky!!!
aother great video
You should try making a falafel wrap 😊
Croc gang!!! Everyone’s a hater til they try em on, I wear em for everything 🐊 all seasons, terrain, all activities baby!
haha this is exactly what Crystal says!
BTW, the underscoring music at the end sounded so good in my headphones.

Yummy food, and I love how you chop bellpeppers 😅 You look like you have more muscles than ever!
Would love to see soy free high protein meal ideas! I’m unfortunately a bit sensitive to soy so I have to limit it a lot
Loved it
New camera video looks good!
Thank you so much!
I love videos like that ❤
Thank you!
That bell pepper edit! Hahahahaha that’s very funny!👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!
What kind of cinnamon do you use?
I like using true cinnamon, I buy it in bulk from Om foods.
Is it true about ceylon cinnamon being safer to consume than other cinnamon?
TIL Crocs have a sport mode! Cool gimbal man.
They do! You never knew that?
@@Simnettnutrition I call them "action sandals" but my lovely neighbour referred to them as "your adventure slippers" 🤣
Tell me about the smoked tofu. 😊
I did a quick search, but didn't find any, so I'm assuming you made it.
I didn't! You can buy it in stores, the brand soyganic sells it.
@Simnettnutrition Thanks!
