Post Workout Meal

Instead of listing another chicken recipe (I've already given a couple so I figure you can make your own variation of them) I decided to list some healthy snacks that you can have throughout the day to keep you fit and energized.
Pistachios
These small nuts are important because they are have a lot of nutritional value in one thing: potassium. As we talked about, as you sweat more it lowers your potassium levels, so these nuts are filled with large amounts of potassium, that will help you sweat more. They also contain electrolytes which are important in terms of energy for a workout, or energy for your day.

Orange Juice
This may not be considered a "snack" but it can be an important part of your diet as it can provide you with clean carbohydrates (bad carbs would be something like bread) to provide you with enough energy to last the day.

Avocados
You can have these anyway- for me I like to eat them sliced in half with a spoon with a pinch of pepper and a little bit of hot sauce. Either way, avocados are good for your heart and vision.
Below is a video on snacks that you can make while staying healthy in the summer!
