Here are some quick, go-to options for carbs when you’re in a bind and don’t have time to cut up your own potatoes or wait 30 minutes for your rice to cook!

I get asked a lot about pre and post-workout nutrition. Nutrient timing if you will. We understand the importance of it as athletes. Eating sufficient amounts of carbohydrates before and after we workout helps with our performance and recovery. Pre and post-workout foods certainly don't need to be complicated. Carbs, carbs carbs. Okay and some protein too. But our bodies need glycogen. And since I love to bake, I decided to work on a high carb, low-fat breakfast muffin that I could grab on my way to the gym either to eat in the car or save for right after my workout. Regardless of which snack you're needing, this one should do the job!
