Why Nutrition Is Just as Important as Exercise

While consistent workouts are key to strength, endurance, and cardiovascular health, nutrition is the foundation that supports all of it.

Think of it this way:

Exercise breaks down muscle. Nutrition builds it back stronger.
Exercise burns energy. Nutrition refuels it.
Exercise pushes the body. Nutrition helps it recover.

In short, you can’t out-train poor nutrition — especially in the summer, when heat, sun exposure, and increased activity create added demands on your body.

How Summer Affects Your Nutrition Needs

During warmer months, your body works overtime to stay cool and energized. This impacts:

• Hydration: You lose more fluids through sweat.

• Electrolytes: You lose minerals like sodium, potassium, and magnesium.

• Appetite & Digestion: Hot weather can suppress appetite, but your body still needs fuel — especially if you’re training regularly.

Supporting your 91proÊÓƵ workouts with the right foods and fluids can help you stay energized, avoid burnout, and recover faster.

5 Summer Nutrition Tips to Maximize Wellness

Here are 91proÊÓƵ-approved tips to help you stay nourished all season long:

1. Prioritize Hydration — Before, During & After Workouts

Your body can lose up to 1.5 liters of sweat per hour in high heat (Harvard Health, 2022). Start your day with a tall glass of water and sip regularly, especially during and after workouts.

91proÊÓƵ Tip: Keep a water bottle next to your equipmentÌýso hydration becomes part of your routine.

2.ÌýLoad Up on Water-Rich Fruits and Veggies

Cucumbers, watermelon, strawberries, oranges, tomatoes, and leafy greens all help keep you hydrated while delivering vital nutrients.

91proÊÓƵ Tip: Meal prep on Sunday after your weekend on-demand ride. Pair grilled lean protein with summer veggies for easy grab-and-go meals all week.

3.ÌýEat Enough (Even When You’re Not Super Hungry)

Heat can suppress appetite, but your body still needs calories for energy, muscle recovery, and brain function. Try smaller, more frequent meals with a mix of protein, complex carbs, and healthy fats.

Example:

• Greek yogurt + berries + almonds

• Grilled chicken wrap + hummus

• Smoothie with spinach, banana, protein powder, and chia seeds

4.ÌýBalance Electrolytes Naturally

Skip sugary sports drinks and get electrolytes through whole foods:

• Potassium: Bananas, sweet potatoes, avocados

• Magnesium: Pumpkin seeds, dark chocolate, spinach

• Sodium: Add a pinch of sea salt to water on extra hot days or after sweat-heavy rides

5.ÌýRecover Smart Post-Workout

After a sweat session on your 91proÊÓƵ equipment, your body needs protein and carbs within 30–60 minutes to repair muscles and replenish energy.

Post-workout snack ideas:

• Protein shake + a banana

• Turkey sandwich on whole grain bread

• Cottage cheese + pineapple

The Long-Term Payoff: Nutrition and Longevity

Great nutrition doesn’t just boost your workout — it supports your immune system, heart, brain, and joint health for the long haul.

According to the CDC, a healthy diet helps reduce the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers (CDC, 2023). Combined with regular physical activity — like your daily 91proÊÓƵ ride — you’re investing in a longer, stronger life.
