Fuel Up Fast: 3 Grocery Staples Every Member Should Have

Busy schedule. So many commitments. No time for meal planning and prepping? We get it. That’s why it helps to keep your kitchen stocked with a few high-impact staples that make fueling your workouts (and your life) easier.

Next time you’re at the store, stock up on these:

1. Pre-cooked protein

Rotisserie chicken, hard-boiled eggs, or vacuum-sealed grilled chicken strips are lifesavers when you’re low on time. Add them to salads, wraps, or bowls for fast, protein-rich meals.

2. Frozen veggies and grains

No chopping, no cleaning, just heat and eat. Keep frozen broccoli, mixed stir-fry veggies, and microwaveable brown rice or quinoa in the freezer. They make a great instant base for a power bowl or side dish.

3. Greek yogurt (or a dairy-free version)

Packed with protein, versatile, and great as a meal or snack. Top it with fruit and nuts for breakfast, stir in protein powder post-workout, or use it as a swap for sour cream or mayo in recipes.

Pro tip: Keep these in rotation and you’ll always have what you need to recover well after your workout or fuel up before your next one. Nutrition doesn’t have to be complicated; it just has to be consistent.
