What Pro Athletes eat for energy and health

Published by mdgrove at 2:09 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

Athletes eat a high protein diet mainly, with a combo of fibrous vegetables and whole grains. Here is an example meal you can use in your highly active day as an athlete.

Pre-Workout meal: Lean beef 8 oz. of Patties, flank steak or Kabobs

Veggies: Navy or Kidney Beans, Spinach,onions and broccoli

Starchy Carbs: Whole Wheat Pasta, 100% Whole Grain Breads,  1 Cup Brown Rice

Either one of these carbs go well with Lean Beef and veggies. For added flavor use

a low-fat pasta sauce or even low-fat salsa.

This is a great way to get needed fats, protein, fiber and vitamins and minerals.
