Top Tips

  • Eat enough protein. Protein is not only a building block in forming lean muscle but also crucial in making us happy!
  • Eat good fats. Good fats are essential for brain health, without them our brain won't function as well.
  • Don't be scared of carbs. Berries and gluten free grains are great sources of carbs that will help keep your energy levels up.
  • Have a good relationship with food. Don't punish yourself for slipping up!
  • Find out what works for you! Everyone's body functions differently, which means what we eat will affect everyone differently. Experiment with different meals and food and see what works for you!
  • It is really important to eat protein and carbs 30min to 2hours after exercise, or all the muscle building and toning benefits will be dramatically reduced!
