⚫ Make sure you eat a combination of protein and carbohydrate before a workout.
⚫ Carbohydrates are considered fuel for your body and are what keep you energized throughout your training.
⚫ The more you train, the more carbohydrates you need!
⚫ Protein primes your muscles to help you perform at your best.
⚫ Sometimes eating right before a workout can cause stomach or GI discomfort in training. Try 30-60 minutes before.
⚫ Ideally, you should fuel your body about 1-4 hours pre-workout, depending on how your body tolerates food.
⚫ Make sure you experiment during practice to figure out what best works for you.
⚫ Never explore during game day.

⚫ Peanut butter and banana or PBJ sandwich
