Do you guys think an apple or fruit would be a better choice "pre" training then oatmeal or granola?? or just prefrence?

[andrew_plamondon]

It depends. It won't really give you much more energy to lift (or a sugar crash either) but liver glycogen levels are the main indicator of your body going into anabolism or catabolism so if you wan't to build a little muscle, it might be a good idea :)

I like to have something very simple and plain like some chicken breast, turkey breast or tuna, scrambled eggs. Get at least one low carb, leaner, plain source of protein from the above mentioned with an apple. Then i will drink water through my workout and then feast for my postworkout meal.

[jpt]

can of tuna and 1 package of quaker weight watchers maple syrup oatmeal about an hour and a half before training

[drdug27]

[dubdubs]

[Gettinripped]

about 30-45mins prior to

i have 24 grams of ON whey mixed with water, and Beta Ala and 6 redblast.

[motoxer125]

I usually have 1 scoop of whey protein, 1/2 cup of oats, redblast, 1 tsp. of beta A

sometimes if I have a large meal a close to training I'll just have a banana or something small rather then the usual. I find it hard to train on a full stomach.
