fixing to start working out at 5am..need help

[shredhead]

i am fixing to start working out at 5am...what can i do the night before to help me get thru the workout so early and on no food???

Goals?

I would never train fasted even if I were on a cut. Prepare something the night before. Shake blended with oats will do even. Takes 2 minutes to prepare. Down a Casein Shake or Cottage cheese before bed as well.

i am doing p90x...to lose weight...i've been doing it for a while but my work has changed allot lately and i believe the only consistent time to do it will be in the am.

Even P90X has muscle building (lol) techniques. Your muscles need fuel, the only fuel you get is from Protein (to repair & grow) and Carbs (Complex Preferably) to push your limits.

If your trying to starve yourself skinny, I suggest moving to Botswana. Otherwise, learn to eat like anyone else who works out on a regular basis and keep your furnace burning.

Diet for muscle growth, cardio for fat loss. No food will hurt your workout routine. You need to do a rethink on your whole program. Read the sections on diet and exercise. Really not a good idea to do a serious workout if you haven't eaten that day.

ok so if i wake up at 440 and start working out a 5..what do you suggest...without making myself sick?

[Times Roman]

you are not giving yourself enough time between wake up and working out. I usually eat a half cup of oats then go jump in the shower. When out, I do a protein shake. Ten minutes later i start warming up. I usually take much longer, but this is my abbreviated verision. For me to be at work by 8:30, I'm up at 4:45.
