To
believe that eating whatever we want and burning out in the gym afterwards
would be enough to shed off all the kilos is where most people go wrong, this
mindset often ends up with no long term benefits for the newbie in the fit
world.
Time and
again, experts have been telling us about the importance of following a healthy
diet and workout schedule, focusing more on the dietary segment of the whole
fitness journey.
It’s
proven that diet is the most important aspect, even more than exercising on the
daily. If an individual is not able to maintain a healthy diet plan then all
the insane training will give no significant results.
So after
working out, to speed up muscle recovery it’s necessary to focus on eating
complex carbs to replenish lost glycogen and lost carbs from our body.
For you
to have a hassle free post workout snack, we have curated some of the best 6
microwavable recipes that are easy and ready in no time.
