Need a pre-workout boost? Eat a banana!


The good carbohydrates found in bananas, and all fruits for that matter, can give your body just what it needs for an energetic workout. This is because your muscles rely mainly on glucose, found in carbohydrates, for fuel.
Experiment to see how much time your body needs to digest a pre-workout snack; everyone has different needs. For a more substantial snack a few hours before a workout, combine a banana with peanut butter or yogurt for longer-lasting energy.
