Health experts say it’s essential we eat before going to the gym. Food is fuel in all circumstances therefore it’s important we don’t skip meals before working out unless we want to feel burned out and lacking energy. However, when it comes to what we eat, this can prove a tricky choice which shows that low-glycemic foods are recommended if we are on a mission to burn more fat.
Before heading out the door to the gym, a small meal made of muesli, whole grains, soy, yogurt, porridge or skimmed milk, would be the right choice for a pre-workout snack. It will not only make us feel better for eating something that is healthy and low in calories, but will also help up get better and faster results in the gym. The only case when high-glycemic snacks are allowed is after a marathon, only for athletes, which is when they need an immediate energy boost.
