You all are so amazing. What kind of snacks should i pack?
Fruit is always my #1 suggestion for the kids I coach. Stuff like watermelon that is very heavy in water is really refreshing! Frozen grapes are always a bit hit, especially if your gym is HOT like ours.
Sliced cucumber is my favorite.
Dry snacks, like others mentioned... goldfish, pretzels, crackers, popcorn (but not with a lot of butter). Try to avoid greasy potato chips.
We usually do a half hour or so lunch break during choreo. Simple sandwiches are good for this, just try to avoid cheese or dairy based condiments (like ranch or mayo)- stuff like that usually makes me feel not great when I try to work out after eating it. If you don't do a sandwich, pack some nuts (almonds are my favorite- very filling), maybe just some lunch meat, grilled chicken pieces, etc. Protein is your friend! Fills you up and keeps you going!
Also pack SO MUCH WATER. However much you think you need, bring more. If you leave choreo with water leftover, that's fine... If you run out halfway through the day, you'll be sad and hot and won't feel good.
