Feul Your Workout
Good food choices to fuel your workout include high-carbohydrate, low-fat snacks such as:
a whole-wheat bagel with jam ; or
a banana with yogurt; or
a bowl of instant oatmeal with blueberries.
After your workout, it’s essential to refuel your body with a carbohydrate-protein blend, such as:
a small handful of walnuts or almonds; or
a peanut butter sandwich; or
a fruit smoothie with protein powder.
Don’t forget to drink water before, during and after your workout to avoid dehydration.
