The 15 Best Pre Workout Snacks You Can Find In Any Dining Hall
This past year Kent state has made a great improvement with the healthy eating options in the dining halls and markets on campus. There are a lot more vegan, vegetarian, and just all around healthier options. They even cook the food differently.
Kind Bars
I looooovvvveee Kind bars. They are a great source of whole grain, fiber and protein and made with all natural real ingriedants. Not to mention there tons of non-vegan , vegan, kosher and nut-free options. By the way the peanut butter and dark chocolate bars are my favorite.
Fruit
Nothing better before a workout than fruit.
Popcorn
There are tons of healthier popcorn options before those late night gym options. EX. Boom Chicka-Pop , Skinny Pop.
Almonds
What more can I say?
Dried fruit
Just as delicious as real fruit, but also maybe a bit sweeter.
Almond butter
Justin’s classic almond butter is great on toast and a healthier take on nutella.
Hummus
Quick , easy , yummy !
Anything with peanut butter
Whether its peanut butter and apple slices or peanut butter and celery , maybe just crackers and peanut butter. Any of the three have a great source of protein from the peanut butter.
Smoothies
Who doesn’t love a good smoothie ? You can get almost anything you need in a smoothie from vitamins, energy enhancers , meal replacements . You name it you can get it .
Oatmeal
Waking up and going to the gym, this not only will stop your hunger but give you the energy to last throughout your workout.
Greek yogurt
Light on the stomach before a workout , and for that reason it makes a great pre-workout snack.
Bagel or English muffin
A whole grain option of the too would be best.
Protein bars
Are a great source of energy and protein before a workout!
Protein Shakes
If you love a good protein shake go for it !
Veggies
Well Duh.
