Nutrition basics
Three habits that support training
Start with these practical fundamentals. Adjust them over time as your routine and goals change.
Protein
Daily protein intake
Spread protein across meals to support muscle repair. Eggs, Greek yogurt, lean meat, beans, and tofu are everyday options.
Hydration
Drink water through the day
Sip water consistently rather than all at once. Keep a bottle nearby during workouts and notice how you feel after training.
Carb timing
Fuel before and after training
A simple meal of rice, fruit, or oats before a session can help energy. Pair carbs with protein afterward to support recovery.
Recovery
Sleep and rest drive progress
Muscles adapt when you rest, not only when you train. Aim for consistent sleep, plan rest days into your week, and let your body recover between hard sessions.
Light active recovery, such as walking or gentle mobility work, can ease soreness and keep you moving on off days. If you feel persistent pain, check in with a qualified professional.
