My pre- gym routine consists of these three steps:
- Change into gym clothes and sneaks
- Fill up water bottle
- Steam brussel sprouts
Wondering about that last one? Yep. Not a typo. I never leave home without having my post gym snack ready. If I’ve had a tough workout at the gym, I am completely ravenous when I get home and sometimes feel like eating everything in sight. So I say why not make the food that’s in sight healthier?
Here are my top five all time favorite pre- gym planned, post- gym snacks.
- “The Big Salad”- There is literally nothing like coming home and diving right in to a colorful already prepared salad.
- Wasa® crackers with almond butter- Ok not quite a cookie but still a pretty tasty treat!
- Plain yogurt and berries- I freeze berries when in season into servings and take out of the freezer before the gym. After the gym I blend the defrosted berries with the yogurt.
- Tehina and carrots- I cut up the carrots pre- gym and then dunk them in tehina post- gym.
- Brussel sprouts- I steam these before I leave for the gym and stick them in the fridge. I can snack on these anytime anywhere!
