If I'm going to work out directly after eating, I like a package of Quaker (sorry for the endorsement) low sugar oatmeal. It sits well and I feel like I get steady energy from it. Toast is great to, but I don't have the stomach for it right before exercise. Doesn't mean you don't though!
Good luck |

by eating before, your body focusses a fair amount of blood to your stomach and digestive system. this blood could be better used supplying oxygen to your limbs to make your training more productive. think of breakfast as 'refuelling' after your training session. i do, however, take on liquids for hydration reasons before training. then again, you don't mention the time span between when you eat and then train, which could be another factor. a good rule of thumb though, is no dairy. it'll curdle in your stomach, and if you're doing sustained high intensity workout then you're likely to see it again... ![]() |

I usually eat 30m / 1h before going out.
