What to eat before a workout

Consumer giant Nestle has noted that a pre-workout meal should generally be full of slow-burning complex carbohydrates such as whole grain cereals, fruits and vegetables.

Complex carbohydrates are the body's main source of fuel and should make up two-thirds of the average pre- and post-workout meal, the company said.

Nestle said one should stay away from refined or processed food as these can contribute to the rise in blood sugar, which makes the muscles store more glycogen.

"Glycogen is then used to 'fuel' the body during workout instead of using fat or calories," the company said in a statement.

Quinn, for her part, said meat, doughnuts, fries, potato chips and candy bars should be avoided in a pre-exercise meal since these are slow to digest and can cause cramping and discomfort.
