Eating before any kind of exercise is a must! Not eating before a workout can cause dizziness, nausea and cause you to become more likely to injure yourself. These 3 foods are ideal for consuming before you hit the gym!
Beets
Beet is full of nitrates, which bring oxygen to your muscles, dilate blood vessels, and increase blood flow.
Rice
Brown or wild rice is full of fiber, which is a great snack to eat before your exercise. You can even add honey, berries or peanut butter to make delicious nutrient-dense balls. Don’t forget to add a pinch of salt to balance electrolytes, as well.
Maple Syrup
Maple syrup is full of carbs and 24 different antioxidants, which help your body recover faster and protect it from any kind of injury. Enjoy maple syrup with pancakes or oatmeal a couple hour before your workout.
