8 snack suggestions before a Pilates workout

So..my classes are mainly morning and evening…we have to think about our food. Protein is essential.

Perfect Pilates breakfast

  • Porridge – made with milk – or non dairy alternative
  • 1 apple or hand full of berries and 2 teaspoons of ground nuts or seeds.

Eat your healthy  evening meal after your class if possible.
