For your greens, you can't go wrong with spinach and kale - they're just packed with iron and calcium which are fantastic for muscle function and bone health. Throw in some berries like strawberries or blueberries too, they are high in antioxidants which can really help in reducing muscle soreness after a strenuous workout session.
Don't overlook the humble banana; it's a powerhouse providing you energy and helping to prevent those nasty muscle cramps with its high potassium content. Sweet potatoes are a great choice for carbs that release energy slowly during your workouts and aid in recovery.
On the protein front, gotta give a shoutout to the classics - chicken breast and lean beef; super high in protein, and they bring in a bunch of other vital nutrients like iron and B vitamins. Eggs and Greek yogurt are fantastic options too, offering high-quality proteins and a range of vitamins and minerals.
