Healthy Lunch To Bring To School

Q: Hey Mike, with school starting tomorrow, i wanted to know what would be a good healthy lunch i could bring to school, because everything their is fried and full of fat. Also, ive been on your 6 week chest program, and have increaseed from 3 to 7 reps on 135 and can now do 150 3-4 reps, thanks alot!

A: Good job and congrats on your progress! Here're some ideas of what to bring to school for lunch

  • Tuna sandwich with sliced hardboiled egg or mayo on whole-grain bread
  • Chicken or tuna salad with lettuce/spinach/etc with a bit of olive oil and herbs (in a tupperware container)
  • Salmon with broccoli and brown rice (in a tupperware container). Probably need a microwave to heat it up.
  • A cup of cottage cheese with some strawberries or a sliced banana
  • A mix of uncooked old-fashioned oats, whey powder, and peanut or almond butter in water. This is definitely weird, but can be brought in a small plastic bottle and gulped down quickly :)
