It makes me feel sluggish and I don't like the slish slosh in my stomach while I'm moving around.

Wait for about an hour after eating to workout to Avoid that feeling0

I usually eat a granola bar just to make sure I have enough energy to keep going, but full breakfast waits till after.0
-
Yep. I often do a 10k run first thing in the morning, without eating ahead of time.0

Normally I like to workout in the afternoon or evening; but if I don't have a choice than I don't eat until after my workout. Just all around better that way.0

I tend to eat something small before I workout, but I know a lot of people who do not0 -
I usually workout every morning and night. My eating is different for both. M-F, I am up by 5:30. I am completely unable to eat just before a workout .. I need to wait at least an hour. During the week in the morning, I do my workout with no problem. Within an hour of working out, I will have a banana. This is not my breakfast but it holds me over until I can eat breakfast as I'm usually prepping for work, getting the kids up and out and then driving to work. On S & S, I sleep in and will have an apple 30 minutes before working out. Immediately following my workout, I will prepare my breakfast. During my night workouts, I NEVER eat before, except for an apple or occasionally some PB. Again, within an hour of working out I will have some protein for the muscle repair but usually I eat dinner a little later.
It's all personal. What works for some doesn't work for others.0 -

I can't eat before working out. I feel light-headed when I do. I eat breakfast AFTER.0

If I work out in the morning, I don't eat but I do have a coffee with gelatin and coconut oil whizzed through. I eat when I get home.0

I work out (on weight days) at 5am and don't eat anything before I start.
When I run in the hot summer months, I go early and without food - gotta beat the heat. This time of year, when I run later, I usually have breakfast 2 hours before the run.
As others have said - do what works best for you.0 -
I usually don't eat first. If I do it has to be 2 hours before, otherwise I get nauseous.0
-
I go to the gym after work usually, but yesterday I went on my day off and didn't eat beforehand as I just wasn't hungry. I can't workout for 2 hours after a meal usually.0
-
I don't eat before running in the morning. If I'm going any other time I will try to leave four hours after my last meal as I find running with anything in my stomach a bit of a trial. I use energy gels and sweets if I'm going on a long run as they don't have anything solid about them.0

I take a preworkout & out the door I go. Breakfast as soon as I am done0
-
I run between 4.30 - 5 in the morning, and then come home and take breakfast and a cup of tea back to bed with me. .
Tried running later after breakfast, but tea just sloshes around..or feels like0
