I'm frequently asked what to carry in a car for readily available snacks before or after working out. Some items require a cooler whereas others have a fairly long shelf-life.
- Granola bars, energy bars, breakfast bars
Crackers, pretzels, baked chips, graham crackers
Low-fat mini muffins
Mini bagels, bread sticks, rice cakes
Oatmeal raisin bars, fig bars, ginger snaps
Sports drink, juice packs, water
Dried fruit, trail mix, low-fat popcorn
Nutrition Shake (e.g. Boost or Ensure)
Fruit – banana, apple, orange, grapes
Snack packs: fruit, applesauce, pudding
Baby carrots
Mozzarella string cheese
Canned tuna, salmon, chicken, or turkey in water
Nuts
Fruit yogurt
1% fat chocolate milk
