What do you like to eat pre workout?

2 cream crackers, a banana and a disgustingly strong coffee about an hour beforehand, a meal with good protein content afterwards.0

Nada. I'm up at 5am and on the gym floor at 5:45am. However even if I work out later in the day, I still like a fasted workout (lifting OR cardio).0

Strawberries and Cream Quaker Oats Instant Oatmeal and sometimes (maybe once per week) 3 strips of center cut bacon, roasted. I always have 1/4 or 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen fruit. Then I go work out for 2 hours.0

30 minutes prior to 5 a.m. workout
coffee
1/4 cup old fashioned oatmeal
1/2 cup no sugar added applesauce
1/2 scoop protein powder
1/2 almond coconut milk
Together around 225 calories. Follow up with three egg whites - sometimes some yolk and stir fried bell pepper and broccoli.0 -
1/2 cup plain vanilla lowfat yogurt, and one plain piece nickels brand 35 calorie wheat bread. I usually have a banana for a snack when I get back home after the gym.0

Breakfast, bran cereal, if I go in the morning. Dinner, if I go in the evening.0

Usually bulletproof coffee.0

I often workout about a half hour after breakfast, which is a fruit/probiotic smoothie, and often a thin protein shake if I need the calories/protein.0
