Should I Eat Before or After Exercising??

Eat Before or After Exercise?

You've just concluded your work day and want to exercise before dinner. But you're a little hungry. Should you eat before exercising or wait until afterward?

Dieticians and fitness trainers have a variety of opinions on the subject. Jazzercise Founder and CEO Judi Sheppard Missett reminds us to consider what type of exercise you are going to do, and to listen to your own body. She also recommends drinking plenty of water before, during and after your workouts.

Eating Before Exercising
If you exercise in the morning before breakfast, sports experts recommend having a little something in your stomach before beginning, so that your body has energy to get through your workout. Keep it light, especially if you are going to be running or jumping. A small carbohydrate snack is a fast source of energy.

Try a banana, a bagel, toast or yogurt. Stay with foods you already know your body likes. Skip acidic foods. Wait 10 to 30 minutes after eating before to avoid muscle cramps.

Eating After Exercising
Some fitness trainers say eating after exercising is great for those wanting to lose weight. Your increased metabolic rate after working out allows your body to use all the energy and fats from your meal immediately. Some even say that's the time to eat treats like chocolate or chips. More sensibly, a Mayo Clinic dietician recommends eating protein and carbohydrates within two hours after your workout to help your muscles recover.

Good choices for post-workout snacks include nuts, fruit, protein shakes or a hard-boiled egg. Sports drinks or juice are also great for providing carbohydrates if you aren't hungry enough for a meal.

Before and After
When taken altogether, the advice from fitness experts and dieticians is that it's best to eat both before and after your workout: a little snack before and usually larger amounts afterward. Gauge the quantity and type of food to what time of day you exercise, the duration and intensity of your program.

Most importantly, listen to your body, follow your intuition, have fun and stay fit.
