With the essential macronutrients, vitamins and minerals your body could need to get it going, get it through and get it recovered after a hard set of training, these tasty treats are an easy and healthy option.
A snack before a workout should give your body some quick energy in the form of carbohydrates as well as some protein and healthy fats to keep energy release sustained as well as support your muscles. These nuts clusters have all of this going on in and you’ll get it in just a few mouthfuls.
After work, before the sun comes up, on your mid-morning break - whenever it is you do your workout, have a supply of these nut clusters in your bag so you can give yourself a quick hit of fuel before you get going.
Don’t eat them all before you hit your training session though! Post-workout nutrition is equally as important and getting something small in straight after your exercise session is necessary for making sure you get your energy back up and to keep your muscles feeling good.
Within 30 minutes of finishing your session, eat a couple of these clusters to ensure your body has something to reboot your system with. The warming and spicy cinnamon hit will also keep your blood moving so it can deliver all the nutrients to where your body needs them the most.
This snack is simple to make, can be eaten on its own or added to the top of some Greek yogurt or muesli. It tastes like zesty, spicy goodness and is exactly what your body needs to support it through a long, short or gruelling training session.
