Swimming is a great way to exercise your muscles. With the help of swimming, muscle development, adequate sleep, mental health, balance, coordination and a fit body can be achieved. But to achieve them, it is important to have proper nutrition before and after swimming classes. Nutritionist Pooja Makhija’s recent Instagram reel talks about how to plan their diet while swimming.
A nutritionist and social media influencer reveals how a small meal is essential before you dive into the water. Makhija suggests eating fruits, nuts and curd in small quantities with nuts. She says, “Start your metabolism small. A serving of fruit, yogurt with some nuts and seeds. Top up with caffeine if needed.
For food after your swim, Makhija notes that a larger meal works better. She states in the reel, “You should eat a big meal after swimming. It can be breakfast, lunch or dinner. A nutritionist explains that eating a heavy meal after your swimming session is very beneficial as the body’s metabolic rate increases by 30 percent after such a workout.
The caption accompanying the reel also emphasizes the importance of drinking water during swimming sessions. Makhija explains that drinking water can help prevent dehydration, as swimming can sometimes drain you. She captioned the reel, “Make the most of your fun summer swim that also doubles as a cardiovascular metabolic burner for yourself. The foods mentioned in the video are easy to get on most holidays anywhere in the world. She mentions that water is the most important part of your diet, both before and after swimming.
According to BBC Good Food, post-swim recovery is important, especially if you haven’t fueled adequately before your morning session. Compared to running and cycling, swimmers experience extreme hunger after swimming. This may be due to cold pool water preventing temperature rise and associated hunger.
