Pre workout meal...

[Lunk1]

Ok. I just had a chicken breast a a cup (cooked) brown rice at 12:30 and it's now nearly 1:30. I will be at the gym at 4:00. What would you suggest (if anything) for a pre-workout meal at like 3:00???

Yah I considered a Roubaix with Apex gearset, and a carbon Felt but ended with CAAD 10.5 and pretty much loving it!

Another good protein/carb meal. Not sure what you're asking here - food choices? Macros?

Roubaix is NICE bike. I am considering retiring my Trek 7.7FX next year and finding a Specialized Sirrus all carbon. I like the flat handle style. Easier on my crappy back!

Thanks for helping..happy riding!

I guess I am asking about food choices more so. I normaly go with a protein shake pre-workout since it sits lighter. Is that an ok choice still???

Sure. But i'd go with a protein blend rather than straight whey. My current preworkout meal (cutting):

1/2 cup oats
1/2 banana or 1/2 cup blueberries
cinnamon
splenda

1 scoop protein power (50% ON casein, 50% ON pro complex)
1/2 cup 1% milkfat no salt added cottage cheese
instant coffee
splenda
cacao powder
water
crushed ice

When I'm not cutting the only major change is an additional 1/2 cup oats blended into the shake.

blended into a creamy shake.
