Hey everyone I need some help. I am not used to eating anything in the morning before my workout (so not hungry) I drink a pre workout (half dose so low caffeine) during my workout every morning. But after listening to the podcast, learned a lot) I want to start eating something. Any suggestions on Where to start? Thanks in advance!

I usually do a clementine and a special K 100 calorie bar! Not too heavy but definitely gives me a little bit of fuel! I hit the gym at 5 am so I hardly ever have a full meal before!

I just discovered rice crispies. I take 1/2 banana and slice it into 15g of crispies. I mix it around and eat with a spoon. No milk. I find when I workout at 6am it’s just enough to give me energy without feeling too full.

I really don’t like eating before a workout either so I am interested in these responses also. I just drink coffee with some almondmilk and half a scoop of Legion Peanut Butter Protein mixed in. Not sure if that counts as fuel but it’s delicious. 🙂

I have a hard time being consistent with eating food before. My favorite solution personally has been UCAN Energy. It’s a carb powder. Mix it up in blender bottle about 30 minutes before my workout and it gives me energy through my whole workout. I have a sensitive stomach too and it doesn ’t bloat me at all. By far my favorite preworkout fuel. Also it doesn’t have any stimulants in, I’ve paired it with my preworkout with no issues. But I actually prefer it over my preworkout now.

I usually start with a Banana and some deli turkey! it’s small enough, but helps me be able to push more in my workouts without feeling completely depleted.
Sometimes I go for a banana and protein shake and for fats I’ll sometime throw in some natural peanut butter. Give it a quick shake and go! It’s a great grab and go and will fuel the workout!
