Okay. So you’ve finally convinced yourself to go to the gym. The playlist is ready. The tights are tight.
You’re feeling like your best self. But halfway through your squats, your stomach is reminding you: “Si we said energy?” Enter: snack prep.
Here’s the thing if you’re going to move your body, you need to fuel your body with snacks that actually give back. And yes, they can still taste good.
Snack ideas that work (and fit in your gym bag):
- Boiled eggs – Packed with protein. Slice, salt, maybe a sprinkle of pepper. Wrap in foil and go.
- Bananas – Portable potassium. Nature’s energy bar. Also helps with cramps.
- Yogurt with nuts or berries – If you’ve got a cool pack, this one’s elite.
- Homemade sweet potato crisps – Slice thin, drizzle with Rinsun Sunflower Cooking Oil, and bake until crisp. Rinsun is cholesterol-free, so it makes the crisps guilt-free perfect for snacking without slowing your fitness goals.
Bonus tip: Keep a refillable water bottle on you. Hydration is part of the snack plan too. Working out isn’t just about breaking a sweat, it’s about building a habit.
