Pro Tips
- ✓Eat this 30–60 minutes before training for optimal energy timing.
- ✓A slightly ripe (not overripe) banana provides the best balance of fast and slow-release carbs.
- ✓If you have less than 30 minutes before training, skip the almond butter to avoid fat slowing digestion.
- ✓Add a light dusting of cinnamon — it helps stabilize blood sugar for more consistent energy.
