Bottle of water
This lunch is a good
balance of nutrition,
with lots of veggie
and animal protein,
good fats, and
antioxidants from
the berries. This is
also a chance to get
in some fiber, which
can be hard to eat
right before practice.

I have an after-work
workout, too, so
sometimes I’ll split
this snack between
before and after,
depending on hunger
level. It’s important
not to start a workout
hungry, because you
won’t accomplish
what you set out to
do! This has sugar and
a ton of vitamins from
the carrots, as well as
high-quality protein,
so it is a good snack
whether I’m rowing,
running, biking or
lifting (or all four!).
