| Nutrition Note - Fueling Up |
|
It's important to have enough fuel in your tank for a satisfactory work out. If you haven't eaten a good meal in the last four hours, make sure you have a high carb snack an hour or two before you take off. A banana, bagel, sports drink, energy gel, baked potato, cereal, peanut butter and jelly sandwich...you get the idea. It will probably take some experimenting to find out the timing and food that works best for you. Can't face the thought of food first thing in the morning before an early morning training session? Eat a bedtime snack the night before or have an energy gel 15 or 20 minutes before you start.
