There’s nothing more frustrating than sweating your way through a home workout or depriving yourself of your favourite treats and not seeing the results that you’d like.

After longer sessions or heavy strength training, eat as soon as you can to refuel muscles and restore energy. ‘But make it a small handful of nuts,’ says personal trainer Rebecca Fredericks.
