The fast paced life we lead today demands a
lot from us in terms of energy, stamina, ability, concentration etc which
burdens our mental and physical stability. To shine out, we need to be well
fueled and equipped so that we are able handle anything that we are put through.
The idea is to perform in your daily life rather than just survive. It actually
is ‘The survival of the fittest’. Your
body can only help you perform at your best if you feed it with the best.
·
Eat right when you wake up: This is the time
when your muscles are absolutely depleted & hungry after a 10 hour fast.
Eating well here helps you to revitalise your muscles & prevents excess
calorie intake in the latter half of the day. A light breakfast like cereals
& milk with honey & nuts could do the needful.
·
Eat right during mid meals: Mid meals are the
most tempting time of the day to munch on fattening & non healthy stuff
such as chips, biscuits, fried snacks etc. Instead pick up a piece of fruit,
handful of soya nut or an oatmeal bar & see the difference for yourself.
· Eat right pre workout: To sustain throughout
the workout & to get the maximum out of it, it is mandatory to fuel your
system with the right kind of food like fruits, nuts, eggs etc.
·
Eat right post workout: This is the time when
your body has absolutely drained off energy & is ready to accept anything
& everything to the maximum it can. Feeding your hungry muscles 30- 45
minutes post workout with fruits & proteins gives you the desired results.
·
Eat right at night: Most of the people skip
their mails meals due to their busy scheduler overwork & tend to gorge on
heavy lavish dinner which is the main culprit of added on calories &
feeling of sluggishness throughout the day. The trick is to keep the dinner the
light such as soups, salads, lean meat, yoghurt etc.
·
Eat right when out: Parties & social
gathering are no more occasions, but very much a part of our lifestyle today.
What’s important is to resist the urge to splurge. It is wise to opt for
salads, veggies, barbecued or roasted snacks rather than the fried stuff &
royal creamy dishes, especially if u are on a calorie cut spree.
