I lift in the morning, and I want to start taking a pre-workout Creatine/NO supplement, but all of the ones I've been looking into state that they must be taken on an empty stomach.
I do not want to skip my pre-workout meal unless I can find a supplement that has a significant amount of calories.
Is there something I can take in the morning with my pre-workout meal, or possibly use in place of my pre-workout meal?

Are there any good pre-workout supplements that can be taken with food?

more detail
Could you list your meal/supplement regime around your workout? Say the 2hrs before and after?

ok.. lets see
What time do you wake up and/or are willing to wake up?Originally Posted by justin386
If i had your schedule above, i'd do the preworkout supplementation at 5.00/5.15am and sip it on an empty stomach. Do so for as long as you like and finish it before your first meal.
Consume first meal.
Done. It should work pretty well.
Don't worry about the '30mins preworkout .. empty stomach' directions. Most of these supps work pretty good 60mins preworkout too. I find 30mins to be too short of a time (again, depending on ingredients of the product)There are always two choices. Two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy - Anonymous

Most of the CL stack *can* be taken with food... especially White FLOOD (White FLOOD + carbs = awesome).

I had considered this, and I might go that route, though I'd prefer not to wake up at 5.Originally Posted by lionelxxl

Yeah I looked into White Flood, but I couldn't really find any hard info on when to take it. It's good to know i can take it with carbs.Most of the CL stack *can* be taken with food... especially White FLOOD (White FLOOD + carbs = awesome).

I personally find that Basic Cuts works well with food. The cayenne pepper gives some heartburn, which taking with food tends to eliminate.
