Strength Lesson: There is no single best meal to have pre or post workout. There is no magical food or combination of foods that will make you bigger, stronger, leaner, faster, or healthier. So what should you eat? Its simple, really. Follow this 3-step process: 1) Something with protein. Could be anything. Chicken, beef, turkey, fish, protein powder, greek yogurt, etc... Just get at least 20-25g of protein pre & post training. 2) Something that wont upset your stomach. This is as simple as it sounds. Dont make it more complicated. Eat something that your stomach can tolerate without feeling sick. Period. 3) Something that will fit into your TOTAL daily caloric and protein needs. What you eat in isolation rarely matters; rather, what you eat in total throughout the entire day is the most important factor. Make sure that your pre/post workout meals fit into a well balanced total daily caloric and protein intake. Oh yea, I should add one more. 4) ENJOY IT!!! Dont suffer through your meals. ENJOY them. No reason to hate life as you choke down a dry rice cake slathered with canned tuna (unless you like that kinda thing). Enjoy your food, enjoy life, and HAVE FUN!!!
