GET THE RIGHT FUEL FOR YOUR WORKOUT
Chances are you're not training for the Olympics, but if you exercise regularly, take a cue from elite and professional athletes regarding how to eat to gain the most from every workout. Sports nutritionists encourage the following strategies for eating before and after exercise depending on when -- morning, noon, or after work -- you exercise.

My gym teacher and football coach always told me the same thing, bulk up on carbs the day before the game. So I always ate allot of pasta and bread the night before the game to give myself plenty of energy for the upcoming challenge. During the off period, he wanted us to eat protein for our weight training to help support our muscle growth and training.
