So, chances are, you've probably hit that bump at one time or another where it's the middle of practice and you're just so incredibly hungry. Here are some ideas for what to eat. Choose 1 from each category. I also usually eat a 10 G protein bar before practice.

*Note: This may not work for you, this is what I have had success with in the past*

Carbohydrates: These carbs will provide you with energy throughout practice

 - pasta

 - pita bread

 - mini bagel


Protein: Protein is for when your muscles get ripped during practice. Protein will help repair the damage your coach has done.

 - peanut butter

 - deli meat


Fast energy: These contain lots of natural sugars. Sugar is a simple carbohydrate, so it will be digested and applied faster.

 - yogurt

 - applesauce 

 - apple
