Ep15: Sports Nutrition Q&A

Baraa El Sabbagh
About this episode

Ready to discuss one of my favorite topics with you about Sports Nutrition. I collected the questions you asked me on Instagram and answered in this podcast.

 

Some of the questions include:

  1. What should I eat before and after exercise?
  2. How can I maintain my muscles while I’m on a weight loss diet?
  3. What is the best protein shake?
  4. Should I eat after I train even if it’s late?
  5. Are carbs as important as protein when it comes to post-workout meals?

& so much more.
