Pre Workout Meals
Eating before you workout is essential. Here are a few good pre workout meals for you to try!
Sample Pre Workout Meals
Breakfast
1 hardboiled egg
1 slice whole grain toast
1 tsp butter
1 Tbsp honey or jam
1 piece of fruit (apple, plum, banana)
8 oz glass water
Turkey Sandwich
4 oz sliced turkey breast
2 slices whole wheat bread
2 tsp mayonnaise
1/2 sliced tomato
shredded lettuce
1 cup milk
1 8 oz glass water
Melon Salad
1 cup melon chunks
1/2 cup Strawberries
1/2 cup grapes
1 Tbsp Sunflower Seeds
1 Cup Low Fat Cottage Cheese
1 8 oz glass water
On your way to the gym, consider eating a piece of fruit such as an apple or plum. They give you enough carbs to give you energy and get you going. A few raisins and nuts is good as well. Raisins give you immediate energy, and nuts make you feel satisfied.
When eating a full meal, it is best to eat your pre workout meal about 3 hours before your workout. Your pre workout meal should be low in fat and fiber. You want something that is easily digestible.
Always eat before your workout. By not doing so, when you train your body will begin to burn muscle tissue, because after you burn your stored fat, muscle is next!
