Should I eat before or after a workout?

A meal or snack with carbs and some protein one to three hours before training helps energy and performance. After training, eat a protein-rich meal when convenient. Total daily intake matters far more than precise timing.

If you train first thing in the morning and feel fine on an empty stomach, that is okay. If you feel dizzy or weak, eat something small first.

General information, not medical advice. If something feels wrong, or you have a health condition, check with your doctor first.
