A lot of back-to-back meetings and lengthy days at work might make you exhausted and want unhealthy snacks. The secret to maintaining energy and concentration, however, may be intelligent snacking. Celebrity fitness instructor Yasmin Karachiwala, who has coached celebrities like Alia Bhatt and Katrina Kaif, gave her best advice on how to nourish your body properly, fight weariness, and maintain your focus even on your busiest days.

What to eat before a workout

Regarding pre-workout food, Yasmin claims to believe in simplicity and efficiency. She selects foods that are healthful and nutritious as well as give a rapid energy boost without being too heavy.

Some of Yasmin's go-to pre-workout snack options include:

"It's quick, light, and gives me exactly what I need, the banana provides natural sugars and potassium, and almonds add protein and healthy fats to keep me going," she says of her banana and handful of almonds. The best thing about almonds is that they are full of dietary fiber and have satiety qualities, which means they keep you fuller for longer and help you manage your weight.

A nutritious yet decadent choice is chia pudding prepared with almond milk and garnished with fresh fruit or a few nuts. Almond milk maintains its lightness while chia seeds are packed with plant protein, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids. For diversity and enhanced flavor, the toppings can be changed seasonally.

Toast made from whole grains topped with a spread and fresh, seasonal fruit. Among other options for summer, one may choose watermelon, muskmelon, mango, papaya, and berries.

after exercise, how to replenish your body's energy

Yasmin highlights the significance of rest and muscular repair following a workout. She selects meals that are high in protein and other beneficial ingredients that help the body heal more quickly.

Here are some of her top picks:

The nutritious combination of creamy Greek yogurt, crushed almonds, and fresh berries makes up the Greek almond parfait. It's the ideal post-workout snack because the berries contribute antioxidants and the almonds increase protein and fiber.

Protein shake made with almonds: A smooth mixture of almond milk, almond butter, plant-based protein powder, and a dash of cinnamon. This shake is packed with protein, healthy fats, and antioxidants that will help you recover and feel satisfied.

Almond-crusted paneer or chicken salad: grilled paneer or chicken on a bed of fresh vegetables, topped with roasted almond slivers and a crispy almond crust. The delectable crunch of this meal promotes muscle healing and provides a long-lasting sense of fullness.

Yasmin's food philosophy is, "Don't overcomplicate it, stick to real food, and keep it clean." That's effective." The majority of her meals are straightforward, portable, and adaptable enough to fit into her everyday regimen. "I'll add fresh fruit to my breakfast bowl, toss vegetables into a salad, or carry a handful of almonds in my bag for a quick, wholesome pick-me-up between sessions," she says.
