Eating before the gym

[mickc1965]

AM sessions are fasted as don't want to get up and eat at 4:30 and PM sessions I eat oatmeal (between 50 and 70g depending on intensity of upcoming workout) about 1.5 hours before training

Exactly! I hope he's careful because you cannot, and will not be able to tell the difference! Until it's too late!

EEC73 - You find that bread?

i have a quest bar on my way to the gym and thats pretty much it bro..

Oh hey! Evening! Yes and no! I found it at the Target, but all they had was the the Little Big bread. They did have a slot for the Big 16 though. Well that says something about the Big 16 if it was sold out. I ended up buying Dave's Killer Bread Powerseed. But yes, the Target stores down here carry it. So i'll just Target hop till I find it. Not all Target stores are not created equal naturally ya know. But Genesis bread is awesome bro. It's in a blue wrapper.

I've always done oatmeal w/ a banana one hour prior & a stimulant free preworkout 30 mins before.

Like it man! I work with so many guys that take like double scoops of some insane preworkout that cost 60 bucks!

I take two scoops of my fav BCAA's with 6G citrulline malate and 2g of beta alanine! If I'm really dying, I'll drink a cup of coffee! These guys I work with say they can't go if they don't have PWO, I just tell them they don't enjoy the grind enough!

oatmeal is good for anything, seriously... thats a smart meal to have an hour before... i have eaten it right before bed now for nearly 10 years... thats my go to meal bro...

I like to put goji berries and pepitas (shelled pumpkin seeds) in mine.

Oh hey Hugo79, I left out one small detail about the Genesis bread. It is kept in the frozen food section in the grocery store. All the "Bible" breads are. When you get it home, keep it in your fridge and it'll thaw and keep a long time. If need be!

Damn right. Great source of low GI carbs. Keeps the muscles full throughout the workout and energy up.
