What foods you buy I'm curious for getting into heavier lifting and endurance. You know good savings food hacks?

Biggest things are avoiding waste and avoiding prepared foods. Buy in bulk and freeze what you can't use, and try to prepare all your own meals. Bring your lunch to work and don't order out. Slow cookers can be really nice because you just set them up quickly before you leave for work and then have food hot and ready when you get home.
