    I shoot for pure carbs, but, I also powerlift. So doing 10+ reps isn't my field. But for raw energy and power I go to Twizzlers, gummy bears / worms, or pop tarts.

    Not sure what to tell you for sustained fuel for a normal workout. But a balanced diet should be more than sufficient too. Maybe you might even preform better on a empty stomach (fasting workout), and eat after.

    I usually go for a piece of fruit - usually a banana or an apple. Carbs seem to help me out

    I'm basic - I love coffee and a protein bar (I leave my house around 6AM, so this is my "breakfast" too)

    What kind of protein bar do you like?
