Some days, you get to the gym and exceed all expectations. You run longer and faster. You lift heavier weights. You do more burpees than you’ve ever done in your life, and it feels great! Other days, it’s a challenge to even put on your running shoes. You have to practically drag yourself through the gym. Why does this happen?
Your health affects your ability to have an effective workout. That includes your mood, amount of sleep the night before, and especially what you ate. Your pre-workout snack is important because food provides you with fuel. If you don’t have a good pre-workout snack, you won’t have the energy to exercise.
