What to eat post-workout
TAKING ACTION:
✅ How do you refuel after a strength-training workout? Do you have a go-to meal or snack? Maybe a shake? Share with us below!
As promised, let’s keep it simple today and briefly continue the conversation we began yesterday—what to eat pre-workout and post-workout. It’s important to note that these suggestions are for your strength training days specifically.
According to the website, What to Eat After a Workout (and What to Avoid), “Eating carbs after exercising helps rebuild muscle energy stores. Try to get a combination of protein and carbs within an hour after working out. The type of carbs you eat matters. Choose unprocessed or minimally processed whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and beans over highly processed or refined foods such as white bread and pastries.”
Most agree that the one-hour rule was exaggerated, and refueling your body within a few hours after a good strength training session is perfectly fine for reaping the muscle-building benefits. Check out some post-meal ideas on the website above! 🍽️
