Nutrition

What should you eat after a workout?

Plan a recovery meal or a snack based on the session and when you will next eat.

Build your next meal

Pair protein and carbohydrates with water. Try potatoes with eggs and vegetables, or rice with tofu and vegetables. Adjust the portion to your appetite and how demanding the session was.

When your next meal is a while away

A snack can tide you over. Try yoghurt, banana and oats, or a hummus sandwich with fruit. After a routine session, if your next meal is soon, eat it as planned.

When you train twice in one day

If two demanding sessions are close together, have an option with carbohydrates, protein and water ready after the first. If you have little appetite, start with a small snack you can comfortably eat and have a fuller meal later.
