Early morning workouts, what do eat before?
I need some new pre-workout foods. I attend a 6:45 am bootcamp class. I wake up at 5:45am and tip toe out the house so not to wake my sleeping three year old. So I have to be able to grab and go. I usually eat a nature valley granola bar in the car on the way to class. What is everyone else eating?

Re: Early morning workouts, what do eat before?
When I did early mornings I either did a granola bar or a banana. Sometimes a small thing of yogurt, I would bring a plastic spoon and eat as I drove.

I didnt eat anything when I was doing 5am work outs. It was hard to get something down that early. I did eat when I was done..a regular breakfast (oatmeal, e/w with veggies, shake, ect). I had plenty of energy with out eating that early.

When I used to work out in the morning, I would eat a white choco macadamia cliff bar about 20 min before.

Re: Early morning workouts, what do eat before?
Trying to work out on an empty stomach is like trying to drive a car with no gas. Make sure you have SOMETHING in your stomach before a workout. If it is mainly cardio based, something like a rice cake with peanut butter is PERFECT. Just something to get the metabolism moving and something in your stomach so that you aren't burning muscle. If it is a more resistance based workout, I might try to have something a bitm ore substantial like oatmeal and whey protein. Hope that helps!

If it's a run, then nothing. If I'm weightlifting, then I have a protein drink.
