To Eat Or Not To Eat Before and After Workout?

As a fitness trainor, you should be eating before workout for energy and after workout to replenish the energy lost.

Your body needs some glucose (blood sugar) for fuel in addition to what it can use from fat stores when you're working out. If you don't have any blood sugar available, your body will eat the muscles' glycogen, or stored glucose. Low blood sugar will also make you tired and sluggish during your training session.

After training, all you need it to eat a little something that contains both protein and carbs will give the best results.
