Those who like doing sports also know how difficult it is to choose a snack to be consumed before training that allows us to have the right energy without weighing us down.

Furthermore, every physical activity has different needs and therefore if dry fruit is perfect for a session at the gym, I prefer fruit or yogurt for activities like running or swimming, perhaps in the form of smoothies or smoothies.

Pear, banana and pineapple smoothie

Ingredients for one person: 1 banana, 1 pear, 2 slices of pineapple.

The preparation is very simple: peel the fruit, insert it into pieces inside the extractor or centrifuge and operate it.

Mix at the end and decorate, if you want, with some berries and mint leaves.

Bananas is a good snack to consume before training because it has a high iron content and is very rich in potassium (ideal to limit muscle cramps after training).

Pears, on the other hand, is very rich in vitamins, mineral salts and fibers and in combination with the banana it is an excellent solution to take in quantities of nutrients necessary to better cope with physical activity.

Besides being one of my favorite fruits, pineapple is known for its high content of vitamins C, B1, B6, folic acid and mineral salts and is therefore ideal to be taken in a balanced diet. The only advice is not to exceed the amount inside the smoothie because the risk is that it covers the flavor of the other fruit.
