When you’re an athlete you need to fuel your body like a champion. You can’t put crappy gas, and never change the oil of a sports car and it expects it to perform well. Humans are the same! We need the right fuel in order to be successful. A lot of the food on the list below are common sense, but you can never have too many reminders right?
-
Fast food burgers >>>Homemade Burgers-
All you have to do is take ground beef season it and roll it in the shape of a burger. Throw it in the oven and you have the same thing. The only difference with homemade burgers is you know what is really in it.
-
Fried Foods>>>Baked Foods–
- It makes no sense why people fry anything when it is so bad for you. Like fried foods do taste good but not that much better than a food you will bake. I guess my arteries are talking to me right now though.
-
Candy>>>Fruit-
Candy cravings are your body’s call for some sweets. That is just what fruit is filled with and they are all natural sugars.
-
Chocolate>>> granola bars-
Granola bars are not the healthiest things on the planet but they are way better for you than a chocolate bar.
-
Cake and Pastries>>> homemade muffins–
Make some muffins and use whole grain flour, put applesauce in them, put chocolate chips in, and put some protein powder in. You will forget all about cake.
-
Bacon>>> Breakfast steaks-
Breakfast steaks are thin steaks that cook really fast on a frying pan. I make them right beside fried eggs but just don’t use oil use cooking spray and you have a much better meal.
-
Soda pop>>> Gatorade-
Not saying Gatorade is the greatest drink in the world but if you happen to be dehydrated from a hard day’s work it will do more for you than a soda. If you are a real go hard have some water but I know sometimes we like something sweet to wash food down with.
-
Hot Dogs/ Sausages>>> Lunch Meat-
These meats are made in the most disgusting ways, but they just taste so good. Just go to the grocery store and buy sandwich meat and call it a day. A healthy day at that.
