Ok, so I know your supposed to wait an hour or two after ur preworkout meal before lifting to utilize the nutrients from that meal and what not. Well I'm tired of waking up an hour or two before I workout to eat, mainly because I'm already sleep deprived as it is when I'm on nights (4 hours average of sleep). I want to start doing more cardio as well.
My question is this. Can I eat about half hour prior to going to the gym, doing 45 minutes of cardio, drinking bcaa's, then lifting? Would the be some what similar to fasted cardio then lifting while giving my meal time to digest?
I'm not worried about a whole lot of energy while I'm lifting because I've reduced my work load in half for this month to give my muscles a chance to recover from the beating I've handed them the past 8 weeks.
