My fave pre-workout snacks!

It can be so hard to dance that fine line between too much food & too little food before a workout...


There's a few rules I try to s

tick to when it comes to fuelling my workouts.


#1 The 2 Hour Rule

I will eat a meal up to 2 hours before a workout - no closer.

If I'm short on time & s t a r v i n g - I'll have a small, wholefood snack. That way I'm fuelled but I'm not full.


#2 Avoid Heavy Fats

Whatever meal I eat prior to a workout, I make sure to keep heavy fats to a minimum. These take the longest to digest so you're more likely to be tasting that avo toast half way through the workout!


#3 Consider Your Workout

The type of workout you're planning on having can impact what you should eat prior! If I'm doing a gassy, sweaty, fast workout - I keep it light, carby & small. If I'm planning a heavy, slower, longer workout - I go heavier on the calories with more complex carbs.



My go-to pre-workout meals...


Smoked Salmon Wrap
Topped Bagel (use lean meats or fish)
Rice, veggies & lean protein
Scrambled eggs & Mediterranean veg


My go-to pre-workout snacks...


Rice Cake, PB & Banana
Dates & Dark Chocolate
Yogurt & Granola
Oats, Fruit & Yogurt


I hope this was helpful & you can go smash your workouts, fuelled & fresh!
