Pre and Post Workout Snacks
It's important to eat both before and after a workout to fuel your body with the energy and nutrients it needs. Eating a small snack about an hour or so before exercising is always a good idea because you don't want to workout on an empty stomach. Eating after is good because you want to refuel your body after your grueling workout.
Pre-Workout Snacks
You'll want to eat something with carbs and protein to give yourself some energy. Fruit is always a good size snack to eat before working out too. Here are some simple examples:
apples with nut butter
oatmeal
protein smoothie
banana and yogurt
bagel with nut butter or natural fruit spread
Post-Workout Snacks
You should eat after exercise to replenish your body. Again, think of carbs and protein and the snacks above. Here are more examples:
chocolate milk
greek yogurt
protein shake
toast and nut butter
grilled chicken
tuna sandwich
Keep these examples in mind and remember to stay hydrated while you exercise! If you're looking for more ideas check out these links!
