Your workout meal

[LuckyG]

I just finished working out, and I was wondering what everyone else ate before they exercised. I personally make myself a big ol' bowl of Kraft Dinner and throw in whatever leftover meat I have in the fridge - lots of protein and energy. I'll eat half the bowl, run or work out, then finish whatever's left. How about you guys?

i'm real serious about lifting and dieting (kind of ironic i'm on this site, but i only smoke on weekends); anyways i eat a big meal 2 hrs before, like 3-4 eggs and 3-4 pieces of toast with jam, and then 45 min before working out i'll have a scoop of whey protein mixed in water with an apple or banana. pre and post workout meals make a huge difference

I do a spiru-tein soy powder (nuts & berries flavor) mixed with ice, a bananna, 8 ounce soy milk, and glutamine powder.....plenty of carbs and protein to get me going.
After workout...i eat a plain can-o-tuna, lol

Nothing at all ironic about being an active smoker, I'm sure you'll meet many of them on these boards if you stick around for any amount of time - I'm one myself. There's nothing I like better than a bong hit and a walk, with some fresh fruit if I get the munchies. :thumbsup:

Do you really need to eat that far ahead before you work out? I find that maybe 30-60 minutes is good for me. But damn am I hungry for some toast with jam now, I don't think I've had that in half a decade. To the kitchen!
