    I like to eat something light before working out just because I don’t wanna risk passing out from hunger or whatever. I don’t know if that has any scientific basis, but I do it because I feel like it.

    Then I try to eat some protein within an hour of working out because I heard some guy say it a long time ago

      Yeah, I like to go without feeling like I NEED to eat and don’t gorge myself before I go ( did it once before p.e. class with some cereal and phrew up …) I’ve heard plenty, that you should eat carbs before protein after or vice versa. Imo as long as I get enough protein in a day it should be fine, and carbs are so easy to ingest because they’re in almost everything that it’s not a huge problem checking to see if I’ve gotten any. But yeah I do try to do an after workout protein shake after, right before bed.

      I don’t like to eat before working out, I just feel weaker that way. And generally a little less focused. Just from personal experience.
