What Do We Eat at Foundry?
A common question from our clients is, “What do you eat?”
Now, keep in mind that what our trainers and staff are eating may not be right for you and your training goals etc..
So, just for fun and for your interest we asked our team to keep food diaries for a week. I’ve also joined in so you can see what a non-trainer but healthy, thirty something female eats. Obviously each one of us has our own fitness goals and workout regime. It is important to take your level of exercise into consideration when meal planning.
Here are two days worth of food diary entries from our team…
