post-workout

Break through a frustrating plateau — here’s how to eat for peak fitness performance.

After you've finished a tough workout, you need to refuel your body with protein and carbs. Nuts and seeds are one great option for this -- they supply some of the amino acids from protein that we need to be healthy. Granola is another choice, because it has fibre-rice carbs to help you get some energy back. For that reason, Girlnola's granolas and trail mixes are great to have on hand for a tasty and healthy post-workout snack.
