  1. Workout diet - What to eat before & after a workout | 98Fit Plan a workout diet to stay fueled for your exercise goals Whether it is a workout plan for beginners or an expert workout plan, what you eat before and after it is very important to decide its success. Before you workout, a well-charted intake of carbs will improve your performance and keep you going till you are done. Carbs are your source of energy and the more complex carbs you eat before you workout, the higher is the release of energy.

  2. Pre workout diet Here are some simple meals that we at 98Fit find easy to prepare as part of your workout diet before you hit the gym: 1. Trail mix with Greek yoghurt If you are preparing for a high intensity cardio workout, this is the best option for you. Choosing a trail mix that has a base of dry fruits and nuts can pack you with tons of energy. The sugar in these nuts and fruits are extremely healthy and give you a quick boost of energy. Yoghurt makes this simple meal easier on your stomach.

  3. 2. Smoothies If you want a quick pre-workout meal on the go, choose smoothies that have a blend of fruit and yoghurt. To add better consistency and to keep you full, adding some granola can really make a big difference. You can also buy readymade smoothies but make sure that they are milk or whey based.

  4. 3. Oatmeal and fruits Everyone following any expert workout plan regularly will vouch for oatmeal. Oatmeal releases sugar into your bloodstream at a slow pace which means that you are fuelled throughout your workout. Fruits give you a rush of minerals and will also add to the fluid content in your pre-workout meal to keep you good and hydrated.

  5. 4. Almond butter with apple wedges This is the easiest, no-fuss inclusion in every workout diet plan that you can prepare before you head out to the gym. Apple leads you up with sugar, antioxidants and minerals. Adding almond butter will leave you fuller while you enjoy your work out.

  6. 5. Whole wheat toast topped with banana and cinnamon Whole wheat is the best form of complex carbs and they will keep you going while banana gives you that extra dose of energy that you need. Bananas are a great part of every expert workout plan as they are high in potassium and will prevent the loss of potassium as you sweat. Cinnamon is known to stabilize your blood sugar and also keeps you mentally active as you workout.

  7. Post workout diet Keeping your body fueled is extremely important but it is even more necessary to ensure quick recovery after a workout. Our body does experience some wear and tear as you pump those muscles. To help these muscles recover, you need to stock up on the body’s building blocks, namely proteins. Lean meat or a good protein shake is your best option as they release proteins quickly for a speedy recovery. Here are a few meal options for post-workout recovery. 1. Grilled chicken breast and mixed veggies Chicken breast has a lot of lean proteins that will help you recover after a good workout. The veggies give you a rush of minerals that you need. Add some olive oil to make a wholesome, yet light post workout mean.

  8. 2. Hummus, Spinach and tuna sandwich with whole wheat bread If you want a good lunchtime post-workout meal, this combination of carbs and protein is ideal. Tuna, as you know, is rich in protein and has a very low calorie count. Spinach can work wonders by reducing inflammation and blood pressure that surge after a workout. Whole wheat and hummus balance the meal with a dose of fiber.

  9. 3. Sweet potato and grilled salmon This is a great meal as it not only gives you proteins but also helps regulate your insulin level, manage inflammation and restore glycogen levels with the unique combo of sweet potato and salmon.

  10. 4. Chocolate milk This is one of the latest crazes among body builders. One glass gives you a good balance of carbs and proteins and can help restore the fluid level in your body.

  11. 5. Vegetable omelet and avocado Muscle recovery and growth is aided with the rich proteins provided by eggs. In addition to that, this meal is loaded with fiber, minerals and vitamins as well.

  12. For your workout to be effective, fuelling your body well and making sure that you also recover properly is essential. The simple formula is to load up on carbs and fluids before working out and on proteins and fluids after a good workout. So if you are looking for workout plans for beginners or experts get in touch with us at 98Fit and we will be happy to assist.
