Post Workout Snacks

Eating a healthy and nutritious snack after your workout is a great way to reenergize your body and help it grow and become healthier! It is important that your after-workout snack is healthy, nutritious and full of the things your body needs after your workout!

Water is an important pre, during, and post workout drink. Make sure to drink lots of water!


Peanut Butter(Or any Nut Butter) on Apples. I love this snack, and its a great post workout snack because it replenishes your body with protein, natural sugars and fiber!

Banana Ice Cream. This healthy snack is pretty popular right now, so you won't have a hard time finding a recipe. This is a great snack because bananas have potassium which helps your muscles keep from being sore.

Protein Shake. Having a protein shake or smoothie is a great way to cool down after a workout and get some protein and fiber back into your body!

Trail Mix. Most trial mixes are a great post workout snack. The ones with candy in them, well...not so much, but the others are great! They have nuts, dried fruits and often seeds which gives your body a lot of important nutrients! You can even make your own Trail Mixes to met your preferences!

Oatmeal. Oatmeal is a great source of fiber and protein. Top it with nuts, dried and/or fresh fruit for a great post workout snack or breakfast!

Ham and Cheese on Crackers. This snack is great for a post workout snack because it contains protein, fiber, sugars and fats! Just make sure you are using good quality and healthy meat, cheeses and crackers!

Eating a healthy snack after your workout is a great way to maintain a healthy body!  I hope these snack ideas have given you inspiration for choosing the right post workout snacks!
