Prioritize Recovery
Allocate time and effort for post-workout recovery, as it's crucial for muscle repair and growth. Have enough protein for muscle repair and sleep at least 7 hours daily for optimal recovery.

Coconut Water: Just grab a glass of cool coconut water, and you got a refreshing and satisfying pre-workout snack. Coconut water is packed with easily digestible carbs as well as electrolytes, such as potassium.
Fruit Smoothie: Eat less solid food when you are closer your workout time. How to make it: Mix 1/2 banana, a handful of berries, 2 T protein powder, a few handfuls of kale and 1-2 C water in a blender.
Hard-boiled egg and avo toast: Avocado is known for its high nutrient value. Adding a hard-boiled (or fried) egg to this menu may give you an extra protein.
Fresh strawberry parfait with cottage cheese: Cottage cheese will give a little extra fat, which will keep you feeling satisfied longer and help power longer workout.
Chocolate Milk: You can have it as both pre- and post-workout snack. The ideal ratio of carbohydrates and protein in it can help repair muscle damage after tough workouts.
