Experts say breakfast is an extremely important meal, but you'll want to eat it after your workout for optimal muscle strengthening. The number one dish they reccommend? An egg white omelete! Egg whites are full of protein, which sets off a cellular reaction in your body that helps your muscles heal after a workout breaks them down. And when a body is healed, it's best able to achieve peak performance and muscle growth.
