I have been working hard with my past 3 workouts and I can feel it all over! My body is a good sore. After my workouts this week my body needed some nourishment and I chose to re-fuel with some of these food & drink items:
Coconut Water it is low in calories, contains electrolytes like sodium, magnesium & potassium, and only has natural sugars
Bananas high in potassium
Whey Protein Shake (coffee flavor) high in fast-acting protein absorption
Apple & Peanut butter carbs, proteins, & healthy fats
Homemade Larabars healthy fats and carbs
Here are some other great options post-workout:
- fruit, yogurt & granola,
- turkey sandwich
- cheese & whole grain crackers
- protein shake with fruit and nut butter
- low-fat chocolate milk
- omelet with veggies
