Hello hello hello! This week for #cleanplate we’re looking at meals that will help you get the most out of your exercise! Also as some of you may know, it’s National Breakfast Week, so we thought we’d combine the best of both and bring you a breakfast that is perfect for all of you fantastic people who are hitting the gym!

We asked Michelle what her top pick would be and this is what she had to say:

“Oats are high in fibre which regulates digestion and relieves stress on the digestive system, decreasing the likelihood of discomfort in the gut before, during and after exercise.

Seeds are a rich source of magnesium which helps to boost energy levels. They also help to lower the glycaemic load of the meal therefore providing a slow release of energy, making you feel fuller for longer and less likely to feel sluggish before lunch”

Hey guys! If your exercising it’s important to make sure you’re getting a balanced #cleanplate diet that includes omega 3. Omega 3 can be found in oily fish like salmon and mackerel and in flaxseed, eggs and walnuts.
