@gymgirlsdiary: Training hard can increase your needs for energy, protein, fluids and electrolytes, so cravings can show up when you’re under-fuelled, dehydrated, tired or simply hungry. Craving something sweet after the gym? Check that you’re getting enough protein and overall calories throughout the day. Craving carbs? That can make sense when you’ve been training — carbs are one of your body’s main fuel sources and help replenish energy after workouts. Craving salty foods? If you’ve been sweating a lot, think about fluids and electrolytes alongside your usual meals. Craving chocolate? Magnesium-rich foods like nuts, seeds and leafy greens are great additions to your diet, but a chocolate craving doesn’t automatically mean you’re deficient. You don’t need to “earn” your food, ignore your cravings or replace everything you enjoy with a so-called healthier option. The goal is to fuel your training, support recovery and still enjoy your food. ✨ Listen to your body. Fuel enough. Train strong. Recover well. 💕 Save this for the next time your post-gym cravings hit. #GymGirls #GymGirlNutrition #FitnessNutrition #workoutfuel
