It’s no secret that the best feeling always comes after a workout; it’s a strong mixture of “nailed it” and “I’m so glad it’s over.”
Let’s face it…not everyone will be excited at the thought of becoming covered in sweat, feeling ‘the burn’ and being launched out of our comfort zones and into a deep squat.
There is however, no reason why we shouldn’t feel great heading into our workouts. Especially if we can give you a VERY good reason to appreciate the ‘before’ of stepping into the gym.
Proudly presenting – one of our favourite snacks to see you energised and fuelled pre-workout.
