TOP 3 TIPS:  How to Eat Post Workout for Amazing Results!

1. Eat the “right” foods within 1 hour of training to restore
   energy in the muscles
2. Eat a snack that contains protein & carbs
   1. Carbs replenish lost glycogen
      stores (energy stored in muscles)
   2. Protein aids in muscle repair &
      recovery
   3. The snack should be 2:1 ratio of carbs to protein (ex 40g carbs to 20g protein)
3. Aim for 200 -300 calories for every hour of exercise post workout for amazing results

• 1 scoop of Scrummy Yummy Apple Crumble topped with 1/2 cup of 0% fat greek yogurt
