I found that the morning rush of sugar from the fruit was creating false sugar cravings for me.
So I switched to a more balanced fat and protein combo that has made me feel much more stable.
Sprouted lentils are delicious and have a good fiber-to-protein-to-carbohydrate ratio.
My favorite brand isThe Perfect Snaque Cinnamon Apple Quinoa Crunch.
Bananas are the perfect source of carbs to get you through a high-intensity session.
The mixed nuts are an excellent source of proteinthey are satisfying yet dont leave you feeling too full.
And water is a must.
I cannot stress the importance of hydrating before (and after) exercise.
Typically, what I chose to eat depends on when I can make it to my mat.
Theyre a great source of carbs and protein, but don’t weigh me down during a workout.
There is nothing worse than being overly stuffed and trying to get the most out of a training session.
Not only is it delicious, but the protein and fiber help me maximize my workout.
That way, Im workout-ready!
