In a world of protein goals, I have a carbs/hr goal 🙏😅 But honestly, intra-workout nutrition has been a tricky one for me. As someone who used to avoid carbs and view exercise as a way to earn food, learning to eat during workouts was hard. It’s still a work in progress, but I now find it empowering to rip gels while I’m on the treadmill. I know the gym can be seen as a place to burn calories, but I’m here to build fitness. Taking gels during my workouts is a great way to remind my brain of just that. Carbs not only improve my performance in the moment but also expedite recovery and lower injury risk. So if fitness is the goal, gels have to be involved 🫡 #fueling #highcarbfueling
