    Not hungry after practice? You still need to refue Not hungry after practice? You still need to refuel. 🏃♀️⚽🏀

When a full meal sounds impossible, try drinking your recovery nutrition instead. A fluid-based recovery option can be easier to tolerate while still helping your body recover and prepare for the next session.

Aim for:
✅ Carbohydrates to replenish energy stores
✅ Protein to support muscle recovery
✅ Fluids to rehydrate

Some easy examples:
🥛 Chocolate milk
🥤 Smoothie made with Greek yogurt + fruit + milk

Recovery doesn't have to be complicated. Sometimes sipping your fuel is the best way to get what your body needs.

Missing meals throughout the day can leave athletes feeling sluggish, impact training intensity, and make recovery tougher after practices and workouts.

One of the best things athletes can do?
