What should I eat on days I exercise?

Written by Anastasia

It's likely that for most activities and events, having three balanced meals during the day should be sufficient to fuel your activity, particularly those lasting less than 90-minutes. Our advice would be to prioritise protein, healthy fats, and vegetables in your recovery meals (after the activity).


If you're feeling constantly hungry, try to increase your protein and/or vegetable servings as this can increase fullness. Also, don't forget to stay hydrated!
