Hi SwimFans!
I'm having a bit of a problem with 'bonking' the crash after swimming a 5k workout or more. I'm a morning swimmer and have never swam on a full tummy, I also get up just barely with enough time to make it to the pool when it opens at 6. While working out I sip homemade Faker-aide and snarf down a protein bar and a banana afterwards with a cup of coffee (this is breakfast). I try to eat a carb rich dinner the night before, but I don't really think this helps.
I budget $10.00/day for food so nutrition needs to be cheap.
Suggestions? Recipes?
Great advice! I'll try backing off on the carbs and get more protein and see if that helps.
Lactose free milk is not cheap, but it could work for post workout on my 'big' days.
What are your thoughts about pre-workout nutrition?
