Simon Moreau – Strength Without Compromise, Powered by Plants
Meet Simon Moreau, a vegan strongman whose incredible energy, determination, and physical power are nothing short of inspiring. Watch him in action at the CrossFit gym as he takes on impressive lifts and demonstrates what a plant-powered body can achieve.
In this episode of the Plant-Powered Athlete series, Simon shares his personal journey to veganism, challenging common myths about plant-based nutrition and athletic performance. He recalls the defining moment that changed everything — an experience he simply couldn't unsee — as well as the influential figures who inspired him along the way, including ultrarunning legend Scott Jurek, former NHL player George Laraque, and plant-based nutrition pioneer Dr. Geoff Palmer.
Beyond the gym, Simon reveals some of his favourite ways to enjoy plant-based food, including La Cuisine de Jean-Philippe, a go-to resource for delicious, approachable vegan recipes that prove eating for strength can be both simple and satisfying.
His story is a powerful reminder that true greatness isn't measured by how much you can lift, but by the values you stand for and the compassion behind your choices.
Discover Simon Moreau: extraordinary strength, unwavering conviction, and a powerful message that greatness can thrive on plants.
