Jan. 23, 2013 - PRLog -- Great Snacks to Refuel after a Workout at your Astoria Gym

Here at Life Health & Fitness, your Astoria Gym, we take the time to plan and recommend an exercise routine that is suited to your needs and expectations. Considering your physical condition and your set goals of what you wish to accomplish by improving and enhancing your lifestyle, is important to always consider what to eat after a workout to refuel your energy.

Five quick healthy snacks from your Astoria Gym

1.       Yogurt, banana, and peanut butter. This is a powerful protein-carbs-fat combo that will satisfy you after a great workout at your Astoria Gym and hold you until your next meal.
2.       A fruit smoothie. The fructose (natural sugar found in fruit) will provide the needed carbohydrates to refuel while the protein found in yogurt, powders, etc., will fill you up! Recovering from a workout has to be tasty!
3.       Energy bars. A high-protein energy bar loaded with nuts will help keep you from feeling sluggish throughout the day. It's an easy and convenient snack for those athletes on the go!

4.       Eggs’ magic and starch. Try eggs on toast or an egg salad, eggs and potatoes or an egg sandwich on whole wheat bread.
5.       Chocolate milk. Easy snack and an excellent energy booster. An 8oz glass is more than enough.

Is important to keep in mind that having a healthy snack once you’ve completed your workout helps you recover faster and you stay motivated. Always have enough water during your workout so that you’re hydrated at all times.  This will help you avoid physical fatigue and you’ll actually enjoy your snack even more since your body is not in a suffering dehydrating stage craving for H2O!
