How about a bad foods list

What do you suggest eating during workouts, if your stomach starts to moderately grumble?

[aztecwolf161]

i like to chow down on an apple or something like that if i'm hungry at the gym, but most of the time i just concentrate so much on the workout that i don't even think about being hungry

[Docrip]

What you do is if you are hungry, Let yourself get hungry and it'll help get your ass out of the gym to eat. Don't cut any excersize out just work threw the hunger. It will cut your rest time between your sets down.
