Preworkout Meals

[toots13]

Hi Dee Ho! Yes, me again, with another question. I usually do my cardio in the A.M. AND YES, now on am empty stomach thanks to Shadow and Skittles! But yesterday I had to do it at 4:30 in the afternoon. What is a good preworkout meal? I usually do my weights about that time. Would the preworkout meal be different, if I'm doing weights? Any suggestions would really be appreciated or even a thread you could refer me too. THANKS bunches!

If you are only doing cardio at whatever time during the day, you can approach "empty stomach" state by leaving 2-3 hours since your last meal before you do the cardio. THen do the cardio & its essentially like your AM empty stomach cardio in the morning.

If you plan to lift & do cardio in the same session, eat as you would normally put your pre-training meal -- I dont' like to train on an empty stomach so I eat about an hour before I train -- and just make sure you do your cardio AFTER you train.

Whatever you need toots! Trust me, everyone new to "the lifestyle" goes thru trying to put together a program that fits their daily schedule figuring out what's "the next best thing" if you can't hit the "optimal" combination of times and activities. I guarantee you'll get it all under your belt in no time. And the board is ALWAYS here if you come up w/ a new question!
