Foods you should never eat before a workout
Lucknow : What to eat before workout is an important question for all the gym-goers. Our increased awareness about obesity, fitness and related health problems has led to the fitness revolution.
Eating right kind of food is important for building muscle and maintaing a healthy body. Consuming certain foods like spicy foods, protein bar and dairy products can make you feel low on energy, nauseous and lethargic.
Foods you should never eat before a workout :
Salad
We all believe that salad is the ultimate health food, but that’s simply not the case. A lot of us eat salads with more croutons and creamy dressing than vegetables. Even if your salad is healthy and veggie-packed, it could be harmful to eat before the gym. High-fiber foods (veggies and fruits) tend to slow down the digestion process, which eventually leads to gas and bloating during workout hours.
Flaxseeds
Flaxseeds contain a very high quantity of fiber. But this also means they will cause gas and bloat during a gym session. Just keep in mind that it’s imperative to limit the intake of fiber at least two hours before and after your workout. Moreover, you also need to avoid fiber supplements and high-fiber bread and go for carbohydrates and proteins instead.
Dairy Products
Dairy is delicious, but it can make you sleepy and sluggish. Therefore, you should avoid eating or drinking dairy two hours before a workout because it will make you feel acidic, lethargic, and you may even face extreme burping.
Fatty Foods
When it comes to pre-workout foods that you should avoid, some of them are obvious: Think cheesecake, hamburgers, and so on. But you also may want to avoid healthy fats such as avocados and nuts, as they contain high fibers and up your chance for gassiness.
Fruit Juice
Drinking juices before a workout is a bad idea as they contain a high concentration of sugar. Even freshly squeezed orange juice will make you tired as you take on your second mile of running.
