I am looking for a snack protein bar with low carbs to eat before the gym. I don't want a meal replacement. Any suggestions??
I posted this question in the Exercise thread but I thought I would get more views if it had it's own thread.
Thanks!

You might want to FM MarcellaBella or Ronnie&Theresa.
I only eat those bars as meal replacements when I'm on the go, like a Zone Bar. BUt I don't know about just a protein boost before the gym. Sorry.

I heard from exercise magazines that the Luna bar is supposed to be great for women because there is a lot of protein and it's low in sugar. However, I don't know about the carb content.

Thanks, I will FM them if they don't reply here. I never really eat them, I usually eat a piece of fruit, like a banana before the gym, but I want lower carbs. A bar won't fill me up for dinner though, I have to eat after the gym.

Luna bar isn't that high in Protein, but they taste great! They have one called Smores!!! yum! But I def. wouldn't use it as a protein supplement right before working out.

I eat Detour bars by Ultimate Whey. They're low carb but are about 300 calories (sometimes I eat just half). They taste reeeeeealy good.
Also, EAS Myoplex carb-sense bars are good. I like the chocolate peanut butter. They're about 240 calories and only 3 grams of carbs.
I always eat a little bit of carbs before I workout. Also after. Your muscles need the glucose for energy and for repair. Just my 2 cents
