Fitness studios offer unique ways to fuel before or after your workout

Move over, smoothie bars.

Grabbing a post-workout protein boost has never been easier, as smoothie bars are ubiquitous at boutique studios and health clubs. Some of the newest additions to the scene feel like cafes that also happen to offer classes.

Some health clubs have partnered with existing restaurants for food offerings. Last year, Equinox Sports Club on the Upper West Side briefly brought in trendy farm-to-table eatery The Fat Radish to cater its cafe. And last month, Chelsea Piers Fitness debuted a cafe helmed by health-focused chain fresh&co, with a menu of smoothies, grain bowls, salads and grab-and-go sandwiches. When Chelsea Piers Fitness’ second location opens next month in Downtown Brooklyn, it will also have a fresh&co — the chain’s first in Brooklyn.
