I personally recommend foods that are easy to digest:

I like to eat:

couple of boiled eggs
1 cup of oatmeal
1 banana
16 fl oz. of gatorade

I have a meal 1 hr 15 minutes before my workout.

if i were to eat that my stomach would be empty by the time i pickup my first weight.

Training on a full stomach is not good. . . . .most of the blood and other bodily fluids are concentrated on digestion rather than engorging the muscles.

Would you eat a couple of sandwiches right before you go on a long run? I think not.

They sit in your stomach during your workout because your body isn't focused on digestion.

Where's the beef?

 

[IronLion]

gotta agree with louden

 

[needsize]

I usually go with oatmeal and a shake, about 2 hours before the workout

 

[p0ink]

i usually eat:

4 eggs, 1 cup of oatmeal, some peanuts, and a big glass of milk.

 

[Serea]

I'll eat 1/2 of oatmeal, and usually some bacon, eggs and toast. Gives me lots of energy. Or I'll have a small meal and oatmeal. I have to avoid things like luncheon meats, which give me serious heartburn.

2 hrs before my workout a chicken sanwhich on wheat and a pb and jelly sandwhich on wheat and som veggies!!

 

[gonelifting]

Some oatmeal and a whey shake 1/2 to 1 hour pre wo. I`m still contemplating the whey or caisene shake though. I don`t know which is better pre wo.

 

[louden_swain]

i wouldnt say a full stomach, its just satisfied, i dont feel weighed down, but im not at all hungry.

im am going to try what you reccomend louden, see how it works

Remember my man. . .you have all day to eat. . .plenty of time to visit the local buffet .

Oh yeah, this is me, especially on leg day. I eat 1/2 cup oatmeal with a scoop of Cytodyne Cytopro protein powder mixed in about an hour before my workout.

 

[Sebass67]

You and I think alike.

I have 3-4 eggs, 1/2 cup oatmeal (measured dry) and a boatload of water about 1 hour before I workout. Fills me just right for my workout.
