    I do not eat before my workouts due to the fact that I work out so early in the morning, but I do realize some people need to.
    That being said and to answer your question, try to eat something light and will digest fairly easy and fast. bananas are good and if you are doing a BeachBody Program, then I highly recommend Shakeology it really does help.

    Also, if you are doing P90X, I would make sure you eat at least 1 hour before and 2 hours before for the PlyoX and KenpoX days

    I was told by a body builder/wrestler that it is best to get your workout in on an empty stomach and mornings!

    If I workout in the morning I will usually eat a hard boiled egg, or a banana, or a greek yogurt. If I go into my workout on an empty stomach I will get very dizzy. I've noticed that I have a lot more energy and endurance if I have something small about an hour before the workout.
