    Hey Brah!
    I say, do whatever you feel strongly about. Meal timing and the like has no secret recipe :wink:

    To the OP: There's a good article at the Livestrong website about your question. It really depends what kind of workout you are going to do (ie lifting/cardio/mixed/high intensity or anaerobic, etc.). Feel free to browse the quick read:

    I'm not sure it's going to make or break you either way. I'd say before if you struggle with energy levels during your workout, after if you don't.
