Many students exercise daily, but many have trouble seeing the results they want. Diet is often overlooked in exercise, but a proper diet is crucial to see the results you want from exercise, whether your goal is to burn fat or build muscle.
A campus dining hall can supply all your dietary needs, but you will need to adjust your diet to see the results of your hard work.
- Look at nutrition information on menus in dining halls. Be ready to create healthy, balanced meals
- Make half your plate fruits and vegetables
- Take smaller portions and use a smaller plate
- Rethink your drink: Drink water instead of sugary beverages
- Cut down on sauces, gravies, and dressings that are high in fat and sodium
- Choose a healthy dessert like a fruit or fat free yogurt
