HIIT or Strength?
TAKING ACTION:
✅ If you had to choose, do you prefer HIIT or strength training? Feel free to share all of your likes (and dislikes 😜) today!
Don’t be afraid to pick up those heavy dumbbells, friends, and build that muscle! 💪
Remember, we don’t work out to eat, but rather we eat so we can crush our workouts and live our best lives!
While you can certainly work out in a fasted state if that feels best for you, eating a nice balance of protein and carbs will indeed set your muscles up for activity. Eating one to three hours before strength training is a good timeframe that will give your muscles plenty of energy for your workout. Some good options are chicken with brown rice, coconut yogurt with berries, oatmeal with banana and almonds, and protein smoothies (like the ones I gave you yesterday!) 💯
Hydrating before and during your workout is important. Hydrating before and during a strength training workout is crucial because even mild dehydration (as little as 1-2% loss of body weight in fluids) can impair muscle function, reduce performance, and increase fatigue. So, drink up, buttercup! 💦
