For most people, fitting a workout into a busy schedule is close to impossible. And if you do get that workout in, you probably won't have time to eat something before, therefore you won't have that much energy to put into your workout. If you're one of these people, you're in luck, there are certain foods that are quick, easy, and beneficial for you to scarf down before your workout.
1. Blueberry banana protein smoothie
Throw some blueberries, bananas, milk and yogurt into a blender and let it all mix together while you change into your workout clothes. You'll find yourself working out so much harder than you would've on an extra stomach.
2. Apples with peanut butter
This is super easy to make as you're running out the door. All you have to do is cut up some apples, grab a spoonful of peanut butter and you're good to go.
3. Turkey avocado rolls
Grab some avocado slices and turkey out of the fridge and quickly roll them up. You can even eat these while driving to the gym!
4. Carrots with hummus
Not only are carrots good to eat for your eye sight, but they're a great snack to shove down before a workout!
5. Trail mix
Now that you know trail mix is an option, there's no excuse to not eat before a workout! You can either buy it pre-made at the store, or if you have a little extra time, you can make it yourself.
6. Cheese and crackers
If you thought trail mix was easy, it just got easier. Just throw some cheese on some crackers and eat them while on your way to the gym. To be honest, it really doesn't get easier than cheese and crackers as a pre-workout snack.
