ok, i work out in the morning (at the gym around 5:30am)
i've decided to split my breakfast up into more or less two parts and to eat more of it AFTER i finish up at the gym. somehow a scoop of whey and a banana does seem to be sufficient refueling.
here's what i usually have for breakfast before working out (i'm bulking btw):
Pre-WO Meal
1 whole egg, 3-4 whites
1/2 grapefruit or orange or apple (some kind of fruit)
1/2 cup of oatmeal
1 piece of toast w/natty pb
1 scoop of whey
Post-WO meal
1 scoop of whey
1 piece of fruit
here's what i'm thinking about doing now:
Pre-WO meal
the eggs
1/2 the fruit
1 scoop of whey
Post-WO Meal
the oatmeal
the bread w/pb
the other 1/2 of the fruit
1 scoop of whey
does this look good? yea yea i know i should do what works best for me, but i want to know of these items what would be best for my workout to eat before and what would be best to eat after my workout.
thanks!
p.s. i take ground flax seed with the oatmeal and fish pills too for EFAs
