Nutrition tips - by Doug Hahn, Winnipeg

Pre-workout during training: How long is your session?

If you are going easy or warming up during the first hour of your training, you can afford to eat a little closer to your training.  Keep in mind however that eating 1 to 1 1/2 hours before training can lead to a really rough first hour.  Your insulin levels spike, causing a short-term dip in your blood glucose level making you feel a bit "bonky."  Try foods with a little more fat and protein prior to long workouts.

Muesli is a great morning, pre-workout meal!
