Bananas As A Preworkout Snack - Follow Up


In July I blogged about eating bananas as a preworkout snack. Since then I have been very diligent in eating a banana as a preworkout snack before my daily swim. I have to admit that bananas are a wonderful snack, super easy to pick up and have on hand at all times.

The most important change this habit has brought to my life is that now I alot more conscious of how much fruit I eat a day. If you are curious about how many you should eat a day please feel free to check out MyPyramid. MyPyramid offers personalized eating plans and interactive tools to help you plan/ assess your food choices based on the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.

Here's to better health and enjoying a banana as a preworkout snack!

Bananas As A Preworkout Snack


I started to eat a banana as a preworkout snack this week before my daily swim. I have been thinking about my eating habits lately. I know I don't always eat what I should, so I did a little research on what to eat when. I found this great article from Experience Life that focuses on what we should eat before and after our workouts for optimal energy, recovery and health.

It's too early to say what benefits my banana as a preworkout snack will be but I will let you know in a month! It takes 30 days to create a good habit and I intend to enjoy my bananas!
