What to eat after you workout


There's a common misconception that you shouldn't eat after you work out, but did you know that if you don't eat within 35-45 minutes after working out that your body will actually eat away at your muscles?! Yeah. So make sure that within that time frame after your work out that you eat a combination of a carbohydrate and a protein. This could be an apple with peanut butter, or with 6 almonds (yes 6 :)

  1. This is Laura :) Of Course you can take whatever off my blog I don't mind! I just get all from magazines anyways! Looks like you're having fun at Pleasant Grove High School! Is it more fun there than in Idaho? Or just different?

  2. I'm a big fan of eating bananas. It makes more sense to eat a banana than to drink a sports drink. Hooray for bananas!
