The 7 Best Post-Workout Snacks

You’ve unclipped your spin shoes and pushed out your last rep. Your cross-trainers have been swapped for apres-gym shoes and the last drop of sweat has been wiped from your brow. Time to chow down, right? Not so fast. While a tough-as-nails workout definitely does a body good, it is essential to put as much care into your post-exercise nutrition to really reap true benefits. To help you make the most of your fitness regimen, we’ve compiled a list of our 7 favorite post-exercise snacks to refuel and reboot. All in a hard day’s workout!

Apple Slices + Almond Butter

Almonds are notorious for their bountiful stash of protein and healthy fats. Apples add crunch, sweetness, complex carbs, and are packed with polyphenols - which are known to increase strength while lowering body fat. Combine the two and you've got a perfectly balanced snack for long-lasting energy way after you kick off your cross-trainers.
