You shouldn't exercise on empty. However, you should eat berofe and after you exercise, but something small and nutritious. About 30 minutes to an hour berofe you eat, you should drink at least 8 oz of water and have a small meal that contains both slow acting and fast acting carbohydrates. For example, a small boal of oatmeal (slow acting carbs) and a banana (fast acting). Or a piece of whole grain toast and a piece of fruit. Don't forget the water! It's been proven that people who drink water berofe and during exercise, workout more efficiently and get tired less easily. During your workout keep a bottle of water with you and take small sips throughout. After you workout have another big glass of water and a small meal. It's been noted that people who eat immediately after exercise are less likely to overeat than someone who waits several hours, and is then starving. Also, many people get light headed or have a sugar low after exercising, so it's important to refuel your body with a granola bar and some low fat yogurt (or soy yogurt if you're veggie) or a small handful of nuts and a piece of fruit. Also, it's a good idea to have this snack soon after you exercise (berofe you shower) because heading straight into a hot shower with your blood pumping has been shown to have negative side effects. Take a minute after you cool down to rest, drink more water, and have a small healthy snack. Good luck!

The class combines strength, cardio, and flexibility and in doing so uses actions that you would find in Power, Step, and Centergy. Thanks for your question. Hi Sue,
