Pre Workout Tips
If you like working out on an empty stomach and you can make it through the entire workout without getting nauseous or dizzy, then have at it.
But, for the rest of you that need a little something in your stomach I am going to give you some tips about Pre-Workout nutrition.
If it is early in the morning allow yourself about 30 minutes before you start to workout to eat something like ½ of a pink grapefruit. You can use a packet of Stevia or local honey to sweeten it.
Post Workout Tips
After you have finished a workout your body’s blood sugar has dropped and you are on empty. If you don’t eat quickly your body will crash.
If you don’t give your body food high in protein in will begin to take protein from your muscles, which is what you don’t want to happen. So instead, try 1 cup of Trader Joes’ Non-Fat Yogurt or 1 cup of Greek Yogurt like Fage or Oikos. Add in ¼ cup of Bear Naked Peak Protein Granola. That will give you about 25g of Protein.
You should eat this about 30-45 mins after your workout. The next thing you should be consuming is a meal.
