Best pre/post workout foods

[BanjoKazooie]

What are they, and why? Thanks.

Either nothing at all, if you're not in the mood for food, or whatever you're in the mood as long as it fits into your daily intake goals and it doesn't subjectively diminish performance or energy.

my pwo meal (typically 1hr before hand) is a turkey sandwich with a small bit of dorritos, or a chicken breast with some brown rice/veggies. or last night took a chicken breast chopped it up put it in some lavash bread with some tzaniki and some guac

i don't tend to eat too close to a workout, it makes me feel bloated. i tend to eat a couple of hours before the gym with chicken, rich and what ever vegetables i have around. post workout i have my protein shake right away and after getting home about 30 mins later ill have a pretty balanced meal usually involving meat, potatoes/rice/pasta and some more mixed vegetables.

Doesn't matter OP, personal preference. I like to eat a bowl of oats and maybe a couple hard boiled eggs about an hour and half to two hours before and post I eat whatever I'm in the mood for down in the cafeteria...usually grilled chicken, rice and a piece of pizza or a PBJ sandwich. I eat what I can, when I can, to climb my way up to ~3300.
