Workout se pehle aur baad ka khana koi jaadu nahi karta — din bhar ka total khana zyada important hai. Lekin sahi timing se energy behtar rehti hai aur recovery jaldi hoti hai.
Gym se pehle (60–90 minute pehle)
Target: halke carbs + thoda protein, kam tel aur kam fibre (taaki pet bhaari na lage).
- Kela + 10–12 badaam
- Poha ya upma (chhoti katori)
- 1 roti + dahi
- Bread-peanut butter (1 slice)
- Chai/coffee chahiye toh chalegi — bas chini kam
Sirf 15–30 minute bache hain? Ek kela ya 2–3 khajoor kaafi hain.
Subah 6 baje wale batch ke liye
Hamare morning batch (5:30 AM se) mein aane wale bahut log khaali pet aate hain. Halke workout ke liye yeh theek hai. Lekin agar chakkar aate hain ya heavy legs ka din hai, toh ek kela ya 2 khajoor kha kar aayein.
Gym ke baad (1–2 ghante ke andar)
Target: 25–40 g protein + carbs — muscle repair aur energy refill ke liye.
| Option | Protein (lagbhag) |
|---|---|
| Paneer bhurji + 2 roti | 25 g |
| 3 ande ka omelette + toast | 20 g |
| Whey shake + kela | 25 g |
| Moong dal chilla (2) + dahi | 20 g |
| Chicken (100 g) + chawal + sabzi | 30 g |
| Soya chunks pulao + raita | 25 g |
"30 minute ka anabolic window" ab utna strict nahi maana jaata — 1–2 ghante mein achha meal le lein, kaafi hai.

Quick quiz
Workout ke baad ke meal mein sabse zaroori kya hai?
Common galtiyan
- Workout se theek pehle heavy, tel wala khana — pet bhaari, nausea.
- Post-workout sirf protein shake, phir 5 ghante kuch nahi — din ka total kam reh jaata hai.
- Energy drink — zaroorat nahi, chini aur caffeine bahut zyada.
