Have A Bowl of Berries After A Workout

It is natural for a person to head for a bottle of juice at the end of a workout. What people do not understand is that the fiber is lost when a fruit is converted to juice. Rather than head for a bottle of juice, have a bowl of berries—and blueberries in particular—because they reduce muscle soreness from strenuous exercise. Cherries are also a good option, but berries of all types will help.

Vegetables and Hummus

You can quickly lose count of the number of calories you burn when exercising. An intense exercise can burn double the calories than a moderate exercise. You may get the feeling that you have earned the right to a treat, but a better option for you would be to snack on fruits and vegetables. They will help you feel full and replenish the muscles. Vegetables with hummus or fruit with Greek yogurt will also be helpful.

Peanut Butter

Can you continue working out without visiting your childhood and the days when you were having a couple of slices of bread with four teaspoons of peanut butter? If you still feel the need to enjoy this delicacy, do not hold yourself back because it can still give you the proteins you need for the recovery after a workout.
