I'm headed to spin class and I usually burn 800-900 calories. I haven't eaten lunch because I had a late breakfast. Can someone please give me some prework out snack ideas. I know a protein and complex carbs, but I am stumped. I usually do ezekial bread and tbsp PB. Thanks.

P.S. You should have the snack 1 hour before workout right?

    My dietician (I have gestational diabetes) suggested just a protein bar. Quick and easy. And since I swim at 6 am, I just eat it on the way to the pool.

    Better off not eating and eating afterwards. It takes time to get used to but much better for you!

    Best of Luck!

    If have to eat, make it small and protein. No carbs!!!

    Yea, I wouldn't recommend that kind of activity on an empty stomach. And I certainly wouldn't eat within an hour. Cramps are no fun.
