Pop quiz time from our San Jose Nutrition Coaches! Which is the better pre-workout snack… You already know the answer to that… But why is it so hard to stick to sometimes? (Asking for us, too!) The fact is, what you eat not only affects your results long-term… But it also plays a role in how you move TODAY. Said another way, the food you eat can actually affect your flexibility, mobility, energy levels, and just about everything else! The good news is that the same foods that help you move better are also the same foods that support brain health, muscle building, and even better focus and increased energy levels! That includes foods like: Salmon Apples Avocado Berries Leafy greens Nuts and seeds Olive oil Turmeric Plus, these foods are a little more “stomach-friendly” if you’re planning to do a heavy workout. To start incorporating more of these foods into your diet, our San Jose Nutrition Coaches recommend working a smoothie into your morning with at least 3 of these ingredients — like leafy greens, berries, and avocados!
