Fuel Your Workout: A Guide to Pre- and Post-Workout Nutrition
By RIXA FIT Team
What you eat before and after training shapes your energy, performance and recovery. Here is a simple guide you can follow with everyday food.
Before your workout
Eat a light meal with carbohydrates and some protein 60-90 minutes before training - a banana with peanut butter, poha, or idli with sambar work well.
After your workout
Within two hours, refuel with protein and carbohydrates: eggs, paneer, dal with rice, or a protein shake with fruit help muscles repair.
Hydration matters
Drink water through the day and sip during training. In hot weather, add a pinch of salt and lemon to replace lost electrolytes.
