Hello FitFam,
I hope you’re all doing well.
If you’re a fitness enthusiast, workouts are a crucial part of your day. However, what you eat before and after your workout plays a vital role in helping you stay fit. You need to consume a mix of healthy foods that provide you with instant energy pre-workout and helps repair your tissues post-workout.
Foods to eat before your workout:
- Bananas
- Nuts
- Granola Bars
- Whole Grain Toast
- Dry Fruits
- Apples
- Peanut Butter
- Oatmeal
Keep the calorie count of the meal between 300-500 calories of healthy carbohydrates. It is best to eat these food items 1-2 hours before your workout. Try not to eat any meal right before you begin your workout.
Foods to eat after your workout:
- Yogurt
- Almonds
- Wheat Toast
- Egg White
- Chicken
- Brown Rice
- Salmon
- Protein Bar
- Cottage Cheese
- Hummus
Your post-workout meal should include a mix of proteins and healthy carbohydrates and should be within 400 calories. You should consume your post-workout meal 20-60 minutes after the workout so your body can utilize the nutrients for recovery.
