What do YOU (personally) eat PRE & POST workout?

[JRathbun65]

I am curious what everyone is eating pre and post workout. Preworkout I dont typically eat anything special. Post workout I like to eat whole grain pasta (for the carbs and the calories), and chicken for the protein. Then for ammino acids ill add either carrots/green beans or quinoa.

What do you guys do pre and post workout and whats your reasoning behind it?

[WonderPug]

I train in overnight fasted state, consuming just water to thirst.

Post workout, when I get hungry, I consume what I'm in the mood for, which varies from day to day.

[fade2green514]

on days off of work, i fast before the gym, aside from BCAAs, and then i eat 1000 or so calories, normally 700-1200 at least depends on what im eating.

days that i work, its normally 500 calories, 500 calories, and then a work out, and then 1200 calories

Nothing Pre besides coffee, post have a whey shake and a pop tart sometime #StrongBro.jpg

[WMLifting]

I prefer coffee and nothing in me, but this only works into my schedule twice a week. I often eat a couple hours afterwards when I'm hungry. Varies between stuff like venison, eggs, greek yogurt, and chicken all along with different veggies such as broccoli or spinach and carbs like oats, rice, sweet taters. I eat 'bro' but if I am hungry for a bowl of cereal or whatever else it may be, then I just fit it in.

± 1-2 hours before my workout I have a big breakfast with oatmeal pancakes, 4 eggs, cheese etc. ± 1200 calories.

± 30 minutes before workout a double espresso.

± 30 minutes after my workout I have a salad with sweet potato and veggies, a chicken leg and orange juice. ± 800 calories.

[kenny85]

After, some protein shake and then a meal. Not picky...just something with meat and carbs.

Isn't it Key-Noah?

Anyhow, coffee/espresso pre-workout (mandatory, I love waking up to caffeine).

Post-workout anything that I desire or crave for, could be at a restaurant, or food that I personally made and packed for lunch.

[AlwaysTryin]

No food pre, no food post until a shake about 5 hours after

[tastan]

Currently I eat 6oz of chicken and 100g of sweet potato preworkout.

Post workout I eat 8 oz of chicken and 400g of sweet potato.

Since it's the season of sweet potato and you can get it for cheap I eat a lot of sweet potato. Once the season is over I'll change it to 100g of rice pre and 400g of rice post.

[Nicky.G.Large]

[Credz]

Really?
At 16 there was no way I could fork out 9k a year on top of living expenses.
And that's only for 1st year..

[The Running Man]

I have breakfast and then train. Typically a ton of frozen berries blended with whole milk and whey, but could be anything, as long as it sits well.. My sessions are quite long, so typically I'll have some kind of low residue shake in the middle of them for energy levels. Afterwards I eat another meal... lately I've been making killer omelettes.

[MikeK46]

My preworkout meal 2 hours before training is usually two cups white rice with a protein (chicken, turkey, beef, etc.) & non-fibrous veggies, followed by a cup of oatmeal with nuts & berries, all washed down with 16oz whole milk, and if it's leg day, I'll follow that up with a serving or two of Ben & Jerry's.

[rhadam]

I train in the afternoon, before work.

Pre - Chobani greek yogurt + granola, banana.
Post - whatever I feel like.

16? You finish year 10 at 16. University normally you enter at 19

And yes I know the costs, I have two degrees

[amw9490]

I eat when I am hungry. I don't purposely eat at certain times of the day.
