Pre-Swim Power: The Ideal Vegetarian Fuel
Prepare overnight oats with rolled oats, plant-based milk, and a small amount of protein powder (pea or soy). Add a few berries or a sliced banana for quick energy. Avoid high-fiber fruits or nuts that can cause discomfort during activity. Consume 60-90 minutes before your swim to allow for digestion.

This light, digestible meal provides readily available carbohydrates for sustained energy during your swim without weighing you down or causing digestive distress. The protein aids muscle repair, while low fiber prevents bloating, ensuring a comfortable and powerful performance in the water. It sets a foundation for better endurance and post-swim recovery.
