What to Eat After the Workout


After a workout, you'll want to eat carbs and protein to give your muscles the chance to repair and replenish themselves. Dried fruits and nuts will do the trick, so will a tasty meal like chicken stir-fry or grilled Salmon and potatoes.

Don't buy into the no-carb hype; if you want to get in shape your body will need some carbohydrates to promote insulin release, which will in turn get amino acids shuttled to your muscles. The best time to eat is within one hour of working out.
