Do you eat before an early morning run?
Hi all,
I like to do my cardio right out of bed before I start my day. I always eat a generous breakfast after my run, but I'm not sure if I should eat before the run.
If yes, what would you recommend to eat?

Depends on if you are trying to burn off some fat. If you are then I wouldn't eat at all before your run.

empty stomach cardio is completly over rated IMO (for "fat burning" benefits). If I do early morning sprints I have a small protein shake w/ small fruit or just the shake.
I could never run, sprint or any type of cardio without something in my stomach.. get far too light headed and nauseus feeling."

I drink a protein shake 20 mins. before I run. If I don't I am too tired and drained the rest of the day. Others have no problems. Try both ways and see which works better for you.

You can try it sure just monitor yourself and if you need to add the shake back in prior to cardio then do so. NEVER lift weights without food though.

I always eat just regular honey bunches of oats before I run in the morning, Seems to work fine, although it might not be the best thing to do

No, I can't say that processed refined cereal is the best choice Originally Posted by jgirl I always eat just regular honey bunches of oats before I run in the morning, Seems to work fine, although it might not be the best thing to do
