The best way to get the most out of your workout is to supply your body with the right nutrition. It’s important to do this either before or after you work out, whichever suits you best, but leave it for an hour or so if you eat before. Here are some foods that are best for amplifying the effects of your exercise.
Omelette
Not only are omelettes delicious, but they give you what you need to enjoy a good workout. They’re packed full of protein and healthy fats, which support your muscles and metabolism.
Wholegrain Sandwhich
Whole grains are full of plant-based protein and slow-burning carbs. These give you long-lasting energy and help prevent muscle damage. Eat with ham, cheese, chicken, or fresh salad.
Chicken Salad
Lean protein is excellent for fueling your body for a workout. Try frying some lean chicken breasts in a parsley sauce, and season with salt and pepper, along with a fresh salad.
Protein Shake
They can sometimes catch a bad rap, but a simple protein shake can go a long way to give your body what it needs for a workout.
Oats
Simple and not too filling, oats are a classic for pre-workout nutrition. They give slow-release carbs and keep you fired up throughout the day.
