Cherry Hill, NJ -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/13/2018 -- Kennedy Fitness: A Jefferson Health Affiliate, a leader among fitness centers in Mount Laurel and the surrounding communities, is providing local residents with tips about what they should eat before their exercise and workout routines.

No two bodies are built alike; however, there are some basic pre- and post-workout food guidelines that can help just about anyone. For instance, eating a combination of chicken, veggies, and rice as a pre-workout meal will definitely help one get through their workouts. These foods a macronutrient rich, and will give one plenty of good carbs and proteins, which are essential for providing energy to the body.

Kennedy Fitness also recommends incorporating whole grains into one's diet. Whole grain bread and sweet potatoes are full of complex carbohydrates, which provide energy required to get through endurance routines, such as cycling or running.

Likewise, oatmeal and porridge are strongly recommended, due to the soluble fiber, complex carbs, and beta-glucan they contain. To add some doses of protein and potassium, Kennedy Fitness suggests eating oatmeal and porridge with some eggs and bananas.

In contrast to the hearty meals mentioned, Kennedy Fitness recommends bananas as an excellent snack immediately before exercise. Bananas are not just easy on the stomach and perfect for their potassium, natural sugar, and simple carbs, they are great for increasing one's glycogen stores and blood sugar levels as well.
