  • What to Eat Before a Workout

    What I need to eat before working out. Can anyone suggest?

    Carbs for energy and protein to have amino acids in your bloodstream when you need them. Stay away from fat - it does not digest fast enough to give you energy. My pre-workout meal these days consist of oatmeal, yogurt, and whey protein shake, plus a few pieces of dried fruit.

      What time do you work out?

      Morning? or Afternoon?

      it would depend on what you eat, to be honest i work out in mornings 4am and i dont eat anything before it how ever my 2nd last meal of the day is a high in protein/fats and is probobly my highest carbed meal of the day

      how ever right after it i have a massive breakfast so lots of egg's bacon and cheese

      but i dont know what is304 is on about considering my diet is high fat high protien and low carb diet and i have no issues with the fats curretnly only sitting at 14% BF though and have more then enough energy for a 4AM 1.5 hour workout

          If it is a morning workout, I suggest you eat a medium banana with 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt. Wait about 30 minutes and then hit the gym. Your body will need the carbohydrates and protein.

              Carbs and protein with a touch of sugar. My pre-workout snack is my treat of peanut butter for the day. I only get it right before going to the gym. One thinly sliced wheat toast, 1 tb peanut butter and 8 g of reduced sugar dried cranberries and of course my PW drink of a just-under-level scoop of Complete Nutrition Amino Uptake mixed with a just-under-level scoop of MuscleSport Neurovol Revolution. If your workout is under 30 minutes then you probably don't need a snack unless you are several hours since last meal.

              If I decide to really go all out for the peanut butter treat I get myself some Buff Bake Birthday cake or Snickerdoodle. mmmm It's just so bloody expensive.

                I don't eat anything

                I take a glass of Goji Berry Juice right before workout. I refrain from eating anything for I have heard that we must take a 5 hours gap between meals and exercise.

                  Two hours before the training, you can eat hard-boiled eggs, or chicken fillet with a salad, or eat a banana

                        Eat before you work

                        It will all depend on the time that you are doing your work out if it's in morning then the food will be different than if it's in afternoon or evening.
                        But if you ask in general that what should you eat before you go to work out then the simple answer is two glass of plain water with lime.
                        If you are exercising in morning then I will suggest you do exercise empty stomach and have a very heavy breakfast after that.
                        If it's in evening then have corn flex with milk, oats with milk or barley with milk.
                        If its n afternoon then doesn't directly head into exercising straight after your lunch.

                          Protein shakes - any time, all the time

                          There are tons of reasons why I prefer protein shakes to carbs, and perhaps one of the best reasons, if you ask me, is they give more energy than carbs do.

                            Nothing much

                            You should eat something that contains Carbohydrate. That's good for energy. Eggs could be a friend here. And remember, it's not wise to start your workout when your belly is full
