…Fill ‘er up!
If you don’t eat before exercise, you will likely feel light-headed, fatigue and nausea.
Your body is then forced to turn to muscle protein for fuel because it doesn’t have enough carbohydrates to perform.
By starting your workout well-fueled, your body will burn a combination of the carbohydrates and stored fat.
So fill ‘er up…and here are the food and beverage tips from your coach Max: Eat 1 hour before a workout or event.
Choose a high carbohydrate, low fat, moderate protein meal or snack.
And don’t forget to hydrate. Drink at least 10 ounces of water to help offset perspiration loss during your workout.
