Training and Health Tips: Q & A with Colin
Q: What should I eat after a workout?
A: You should consume protein to help repair your muscles and good carbohydrates to replenish your glycogen stores (energy stored for our fight or flight response). I like to have chocolate milk or a protein shake immediately after my workout. Then I'll have a meal that consists of good carbs and protein.
Q: What should I eat before a workout?
A: Try to eat some form of carbohydrates before your workout as they provide you energy to give it your all during a session. Here are a few things I tend to eat before my workouts: fruits, a leafy green salad or my favourite (especially before playing sports) is a bowl of whole wheat pasta with tomato sauce.
