  • Green tea or half a cup of oats cooked in water
  • Fruits and nuts
  • A small bowl of air popped popcorn or makhanas with pepper and ghee

Evening 7 pm (Pre-workout Meals/Snacks)

You need to have a light snack or a light meal before you head on out to the gym for your workout. A light meal will let your body store up on the required amount of energy necessary during your workout. A pre-workout meal is a must because it helps protect the muscles you have worked on so hard to build. When your body doesn't have enough energy, it starts to break down muscle tissue as a substitute. To prevent this, a light snack before a workout is absolutely necessary.

The Top pre-workout meals/snacks/foods you can eat within an hour or 30 minutes before your workout:
  • Oats : Oats are one of the best pre-workout snacks. Oats are full of fiber, which means they gradually release carbohydrates into your bloodstream. This steady stream keeps your energy levels consistent during your workout. Oats also contain B vitamins, which help convert carbohydrates into energy. Help yourself to one cup at least 30 minutes before you begin exercising.
  • Bananas : Bananas are loaded with digestible carbohydrates and are packed with potassium, which aids in maintaining nerve and muscle function. The body doesn’t store potassium for very long, so a medium banana before a workout will help keep nutrient levels high. You can also eat a medium banana with 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt.
  • Dry fruits / Peanuts or Almonds / Raisins : A cup of dry fruits is a great option for people who only have a few minutes before hitting the gym. Dry fruits are packed with simple carbs and are so light that they will help in fueling your body. A combination may be almonds, pistas, apricots, and dried berries.
  • Whole grain bread : One slice of wholegrain bread is all you need to fuel up on energy. One slice contain enough carbohydrates to help you get through your workout with ease. You can pair it up with jam or honey.
  • 2 bite dark chocolate
  • Protein Shake / Ice coffee with protein powder / Chocolate milk
  • Eggs
  • Whole wheat toast with peanut butter
  • A fruit cup / Peanut Butter Covered Apple / Greek Yogurt & Fruit
What to avoid: If you're not going to have anything from above list, there are a few things you should keep in mind. Be sure to avoid fatty foods before working out--fat leaves the stomach very slowly, which means you’ll feel full and sluggish and could cramp up easily. Although carbohydrates are good, you should not get them from raw sugar or candy. Also, don’t overeat before you workout. These are all snack suggestions, not meals. Eating too much can cause indigestion, sluggishness, nausea and vomiting.

Workout

Now you are fit for the heavy workout at the gym.

Evening 8:30 (Post-workout; 5-10 minutes after workout)

After a tough gym session, post-workout snacks are an important way to restore energy and rebuild muscle, too. Downed within two hours after exercise, protein-packed shakes and snacks are a great way to rebuild tissue that breaks down during exercise.
  • 3 to 4 egg white
  • Fruit juice
  • Milk and cereal: Add 1 cup of low-fat milk to 1 cup of whole-grain cereal. 
  • Chocolate milk: One to two cups of low-fat chocolate milk seals the deal with extra carbs and protein.
  • Dry fruits and nuts

Dinner 10 pm

Take a light dinner.
  • 1 chapati roll with salad
  • 2 chapatis or rotis + 1 bowl of vegetable soup + 1 bowl of salad
  • 1 chapati or roti + 1/2 cup of lentils (dal) + 50 grams of fish + 1 bowl of raita
  • A thin soup with rotis and vegetables
  • Oats upma with vegetable curry
  • Lemon water
  • Paneer
  • Salad

Pre-bed 11 pm

Before you go to bed, have something as suggested below:
  • 1 glass of milk (double toned 150 ml) (optionally with Chyawanprash)
