If you feel like you have very low energy throughout the day, you may need more carbs! If you feel a little dizzy after a workout you may benefit from some carbs before, during and after (if your workout is lasting more than an hour and a half- of actually working out not just being on your phone 😝) There are 2 types of carbs, fast acting carbs - sounds exactly like what it is- they are absorbed quickly and give you energy fast they are ideal for 1 hour before your workout or mid workout because they don’t take very much energy to digest. The other carbs are higher fiber carbs; they are ideal to help you stay full longer during the day (not ideal before a workout may cause discomfort for some)

Fast Acting Carbs
⭐️ Rice Krispies Treats
⭐️ Banana
⭐️ Dried Fruit
⭐️ Apple Sauce
⭐️ Pretzels

High Fiber Carbs
⭐️ Jicama
⭐️ Pear
⭐️ Beans
⭐️ Oats
⭐️ Lentils

Building muscle is one of the biggest investments you can make for your health! Muscle or lean mass boosts your metabolism, improves insulin sensitivity, supports bone health, and is associated with more longevity! If that wasn’t enough as you gain muscle you’ll look and feel incredible! This is a pyramid of the things you need to make sure you are doing to make sure you are growing those muscles!
1. Progressively Overload: You muscle needs a reason to build more muscle. Focus on continuously challenging yourself and you’ll see your body respond💪🏻
2. Eat! Make sure you are eating in a calorie surplus for your body to have the nutrients and energy it needs to grow
3. ⁠Focus on protein. Prioritize eating 1.2-2g of protein per KG of your body weight
4. ⁠Quality foods and whole foods will be your best option when looking for foods to help you grow. This means whole foods like fruits, vegetables, protein, and fiber should be the staples in your grocery list
5. ⁠supplements: this is where things like creatine monohydrate and whey protein come in to play to help give you an extra push
6. ⁠nutrient timing! Try your best to spread out your protein evenly throughout the day to maximize muscle synthesis 💪

Are you on your thousand energy drink and still feel you have ZERO energy to get your workout done? Here are 6 things you want to make sure you do to get the most out of your workouts without so much caffeine!

• We’ve said it once we will say it again SLEEP! Make sure you are getting enough sleep for your body to recover and be ready to smash that intense workout session.
• ⁠Fuel properly. Have a balanced meal 2-4 hours before your workout with a good amount of carbs so you can have an energy boost. You only have 30min-1hour before your workout, go for some simple carbs that will digest quickly like a a banana, dried fruit, or even sometimes a rice crispy
• ⁠Stay hydrated. Once you are properly hydrated your muscles will be able to perform at their best! If you become dehydrated your muscles will fatigue quicker, be weaker, and even cramp. Rendering your workout less than ideal.
• ⁠Plan your workout so you can be efficient. Prioritize your compound lifts or harder lifts first while you have more energy and minimize risk of injury
• ⁠Pre workout might have you feeling invincible but before you start throwing around weight make sure to warm up properly. Give yourself enough time to get in a few warm up sets for each movement and get a good feel with proper form.
• ⁠Give each muscle group time to recover. Avoid hitting the same muscle group every day to get that growth and ensure that muscle can work at its best!
