Best pre-workout snacks to give you an energy boost, from protein bars to yoghurt
You’ve laced up your sneakers and you’re ready to hit the gym but first, what will you eat?
It's a dilemma many fitness foodies experience before heading to their studio of choice.
On the one hand, you want to keep it light so that it doesn’t hinder your HIIT but on the other, it has been ingrained in all of us how important proper nutrition is to get the best out of our workout.
The right snack will give us the energy to smash our goals but, get it wrong, and you may find it has the opposite effect.
“For a pre-workout snack you want to be fuelling up on carbohydrates and protein to help sustain you. “Snacks such as natural yoghurt with a banana, a small bowl of porridge, a few Medjool dates with peanut butter or a slice of toast with low sugar jam are all great pre-workout snacks”.
