  • Eating something before hitting the gym is essential for maintaining energy levels and optimising performance. While you don't need a heavy meal, going in on an empty stomach can affect endurance and disrupt your workout.

The article from MSN discusses the importance of choosing the right pre-workout snacks to enhance energy levels and improve exercise performance. It highlights that the ideal snack should be easy to digest, provide a mix of carbohydrates for quick energy, and proteins for muscle support. Suggested snacks include a banana with peanut butter for a blend of carbs and protein, Greek yogurt with berries for antioxidants and protein, oatmeal with nuts or seeds for sustained energy, and a smoothie made with fruits, spinach, and a protein source like yogurt or protein powder. The article also emphasizes timing, suggesting that snacks should be consumed 30-60 minutes before exercising to allow for digestion and to prevent discomfort during the workout. Additionally, it advises on hydration, recommending water or an electrolyte drink to maintain hydration levels, especially for longer or more intense sessions.
