Eating on a morning workout schedule?

[jonnytour]

Hey boys and girls! Just looking for some suggestions here. My wife and I are starting morning workouts and I know we need something to eat before we workout. Then I know we shoudl have something to eat after as well. A shake should do for one of these meals, I am sure. Could we just use two shakes? One before and one after? Any othersuggestions as to what we could eat would be appreciated. Thanx all!

By workout do you mean wieght training or cardio???

[jonnytour]

sorry bout that. I mean lifting. I know morning cardio shoudl be done on an empty stomach. I guess I am asking because I don't want to get to the gym with a full stomach and puke it all up because of training in the am. Any suggestions?

I would do a protein shake, and a sweet potato before. (easy ont he stomach)

You shouldnt be puking anything up from lifting.

Follow with a PWO shake (2-1 dext to protein)

and then another meal an hour after with protein and carbs (oatmeal, brown rice)
