What To Eat Before A Morning Workout?
Question:
“Hi! My name is Sebastian and i’m a hardgainer. Will You be so kind and suggest a preworkout meal for a morning workout. I get up at 5:20 am, workout starts at 7:15. What meal will be the right choice, so my stomach won’t be overloaded for workout?” -Sebastian
Answer:
This is a question I get alot, and this is a situation I have personally been in myself. Here’s what I suggest:
Wakeup
-50 gram protein shake
-One Serving of either oatmeal, cereal, grits, or waffles
-Multivitam
6:30am
-Pre-workout supp. (Depending on your age and experience, I suggest Omega Sports Cre-Ethyl Thunder, check out my supp. reviews section)
6:50am
-Peanut Butter and Jam/Jelly Sandwich
Workout
-At least 1 litre of water
Post Workout
-50 gram Protein Shake
-2 to 3 grams of Creatine mixed with 50 grams of Simple carbs (Dextrose or Waxy Maize)
-If you don’t have access to dextrose or waxy maize, take your creatine with some juice or gatorade.
Thats what I suggest, and obviously you can tweak it a bit based on your budget, and how full you are feeling during your workout.

Any thoughts if your wakeup is 5:15 AM and your workout is 6:30… not a heck of a lot of time.
Great site/blog.

I’ve heard that there is a spray that is supposed to help with the mechanism from wearing out fast from a treadmill machine, is this true?

Exercising has tremendous benefits for your heart and overall health. Alot of people have trouble finding the time in their day to exercise. The way I do it is to set a dedicated time each day and stick to it.

I used to be quite demotivated and stopped exercising three month ago. Just started again.
So this post comes at the right time.
