Is it ok using EFA's pre workout!!!

[BillytK03]

This has been asked in the past but no real answer was established, so I am asking again!!

My pre workout meal is.......

1/2 cup oats
30g whey protien
2 fish oil caps
1 tbsp flax oil
1 borage oil cap

I wait 20min after eating and take ephedra/cup of coffee...... then off to gym!

Is this ok or should I not have any fats pre-work out? Also my PreWO meal is my first meal of the day cuz I like to work out in morning!

my pre workout meal is just a scoop of whey and a banana + supps..
because i dont want it to digest slow and sit in my belly when im lifting, i want it to be absorbed quick so i can use it for energy.

i guess the it's not that bad but u should wait a little more than 20 min.....maybe 40 min...

See how you respond to it. I personally like to eat a little while right before I lift (whole food, like actually lunch). I just feel better. Others differ of course, so try it and see how you perform.

Good call!

I take fats pre-workout too. However, my pre-workout meal is usually an hour before I workout so the fats are beneficial.

that's what i do too but i thought about the 20 min i think not really enough as i know fats takes more time to be digested ........i usually wait for 90 min then drink lots of water and go for the gym

by the way using some types of oils pre workout with enough time could boost ur energy levels a lot i read also it's recommended to athletes and for hard efforts
ex .....wheat germ oil,flaxseed oil
