Hey guys, as someone who has just recently started going to the gym, I'm always on the lookout for ideas on what to eat before and after my workout. I want to make sure that I have enough energy to push through my exercises, but also ensure that I replenish my body with the right nutrients for optimal recovery. What are some healthy and satisfying options to eat before a workout or to refuel afterwards? I'm open to different types of diets, so any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone! As someone who is trying to lose weight and get in shape, I've been focusing on eating low-calorie, filling meals before and after my workouts. I've found that eating Greek yogurt with some fruit and a drizzle of honey before my workout gives me enough energy to get through my routine.
After the gym, I like to have a salad with mixed greens, roasted chicken or turkey, avocado, and some nuts or seeds for added texture. If I'm in a rush, I'll make a protein shake with some spinach, frozen berries, and almond milk. It's quick, easy and low in calories!
To keep my cravings in check, I try to eat every 3-4 hours and keep high-protein snacks like boiled eggs, cottage cheese, or jerky handy. Drinking plenty of water throughout the day also helps to keep me hydrated and feeling full.
