Many of us think grabbing a coffee, biscuit, or a bit of chocolate is giving us a power-up. But guess what? Timing and choice are everything. These can actually slow you down if not consumed wisely!
Check these quick tips to supercharge your workout game:
1️⃣ Don’t train on an empty tank – make sure you’re fuelled with the right stuff.
