365 by Whole Foods Market Organic Rolled Quick Oats, 18 oz

Oats are the easiest carb source an athlete can have. A bowl before a morning run gives you slow-release energy without weighing you down, and after training they refill your glycogen stores and keep you full until lunch. These 365 by Whole Foods Market quick oats are 100% organic rolled oats, cut thinner so they cook in a few minutes on the stove or in the microwave, and they also work for overnight oats straight from the fridge.

One ingredient, nothing added. Mix in protein powder, fruit, nut butter or a pinch of salt and you have a complete pre- or post-workout meal in the time it takes to tie your shoes.
