The post When is it Okay to Eat Junk Food? appeared first on yourdailysportfix.com.
]]>Celebrating something is a great opportunity to get your junk food on. Whether it’s a wedding, a graduation, a bar mitzvah, you name it—it’s time to treat yourself to a good old-fashioned cheat day and eat something tasty.
Then, of course, there’s the actual cheat day—the one that comes once a week. Sure, you can be like one of those over-achievers and have a cheat day once a month, but a weekday cheat day is totally fine as long as you don’t go too overboard. Something small should suffice, and you can totally be proud of yourself.
Perhaps this can go in the “celebrations” category, but to be fair, there are times when we’re at a fancy dinner and it’s not necessarily a celebration. But in any case, considering the fact that fancy dinners don’t happen too often, it’s probably okay to eat a sweet dessert.

]]>Seltzer, or carbonated water, is an excellent alternative to water for those who need something a little stronger. Sometimes all it takes is some carbonation to make the water interesting, and the beauty here is that there’s no sugar at all.
Vitamin water has certainly grown in popularity over the last decade plus, and for good reason. It’s essentially water with a few added flavors and vitamins. Is it as healthy as water? Probably not. But it’s pretty close and it’s super tasty.
If you can decide between the previous two, how about combining them? Indeed, flavored soda water is also super popular these days, because of its amazing flavor, its strong carbonated kick, and low sugar level.

]]>Raw fruits such as bananas, apples, and blueberries are full of vitamins and minerals that replenish your muscles. You can eat them as they are, with cereal, or in a smoothie.
Vegetables are also full of vitamins and minerals and they have a high water content. This can reinvigorate tired and sore muscles.
Whole grains such as wheat, oats, and barley contain complex carbohydrates that replenish depleted energy stores and provide slow-release energy throughout the day. The best times to eat them are in the morning or around lunchtime after a hard workout.
Eggs, lentils, chickpeas, and seeds are high in good quality protein to help your muscles mend and grow. They are also quick and easy to eat so you can graze on them throughout the day.
It is vital that you always drink plenty of water. Sore muscles are often caused by a lack of water which is necessary for essential chemical reactions.
Nuts such as almonds, walnuts, and pistachios have a high protein content and plenty of amino acids. These help the body break down toxins and strengthen the muscles.

]]>Jacket potatoes are full of high-quality slow-release carbohydrates. This means that they will keep giving you more and more energy throughout the day, helping you stay active and energized.
When we think of jacket potatoes, many of us think of hours of baking in the oven. But, you can cook a fluffy baked potato in the microwave in seven minutes. If you want crispy skin, you can still oven bake for 5-10 minutes.
One of the major perks of baked potatoes is that they can go with an enormous array of toppings. You could top with beans and cheese, tuna, fried vegetables, jackfruit, or many more. Not only does this make for delicious and exciting variety, but it also makes it easy to eat a more varied and balanced diet.
You can buy whole bags of potatoes for less than two dollars. Not only are they cheap to buy, but they also can last in the cupboard for some time.

]]>The Yakult drink is a versatile one since you can even mix it in soju (rice wine). The combination is a healthy cocktail with a twist and you get the benefits of the probiotics while drinking a smooth tasting alcoholic beverage.
Research shows that the Yakult Shirota version helps weight loss in children and can speed up their metabolism. If this is true for the young it must be true doe adults as well. Now we’re wondering if they come in a bigger size!

]]>If you work on the same muscle group days in a row, the muscles won’t have time to recuperate and gather all the essential nutrients and energy to grow. That is why you should definitely take days off, or at least work for different groups one day after the other.
One of the biggest myths out there is that you’ll lose progress if you take a day off. It’s extremely important to rest between workouts in order to avoid injuries. Your muscles need proper nutrition and rest if you want them to get better and bigger. If you are always tired, the chances are you won’t be able to do your best.
If you are exhausted, your body will show signs. You can’t deal with tiredness if you don’t sleep enough and rest.
