Core Reaction Pilates

If you're feeling like Tommy the Turtle after a workout you might be under fueled - both for the event and in general.

You can’t out-train an empty tank. If any of this sounds familiar, it might be time to rethink how you’re fueling:

1. You’re always wiped.
Not the “I had a good workout” tired — more like “Why do I need a nap after walking up the stairs?” tired. That’s your body saying, help.

2. You’re getting sore, but not stronger.
If you're constantly sore but not making gains, guess what? Your muscles aren't recovering — because they don’t have the resources to rebuild.

3. You’re craving everything in sight.
It’s not a lack of willpower — it’s your body screaming for energy. And yes, that 9pm snack attack might be your body trying to fix what your pre-workout meal didn’t.

Your training isn't the problem. Underfueling is.
