Great write up! As a vegan I always struggled with getting enough protein as I'm an avid weightlifter and runner. I'd also like to know how you came up with this formula?
One thing I found was that adding a scoop of protein to my diet a day greatly improved my performance. Unfortunately some of it tastes pretty bad. For any other vegans looking for protein powder, I would check out http://veganproteinpowders.net, they rank all the good tasting ones.
To the other people saying we don't need protein to build muscle... there IS a lot of research out there on this subject, and it's just pretty much a fact that you need protein if you want to build muscle.
