I was wondering if anyone could suggest some sort of pre workout meal. I usually wake up at 4:00 in the morning, make something to eat and fall back to sleep until I head off to the gym at 6:00. I generally eat some oatmeal, egg whites, and have some orange juice. I know you're supposed to eat one and a half to two hours before a workout with solid foods, and typically 45 minutes to an hour before a workout with non-solid foods. My problem is that I think the oatmeal I'm eating is too high in fiber, which is harder for the body to break down. So I was wondering if any of you guys had any suggestions. Oh yeah, the meal I eat needs to last me at least three hours. I play a lot of basketball so I do a lot of cardio. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

I never had a problem eating right before gym, no matter how big the meal I can do squats & no problem.
Actually, I'm obessed with going to the gym with LOTS of fat, protein & carbs, otherwise I feel I'm not gonna get such a good workout.
But since I'm bulking it's great
!
I'd say you should eat more. I don't know your weight or if you are bulking or cutting, but it sounds like too little food to me.
Add the yolks from the eggs, don't stress so much about cholesterol, I've been eating like a freaking bear for 6 months & had a blood test recently to check my cholesterol & was normal.

all you need in the morning is a scoop or two of whey protein w/some high glycemic carbs (like dextrose, or some orange juice) to shuttle the protein in the muscles and get the blood sugar back up after a night of sleeping.
You can do this 30 minutes before you head off to the gym. It's better to sleep til 5:30.. getting up at 4 eating then going back to bed has got to be fukking with your sleep patterns.

Since you're training in morning I would go with what Diesel said. Either that or down 1/2 cup oatmeal with a scoop of vanilla whey and then go to the gym 45 mins later.
i personally cant train at 5 am lol. it has to be at least 8 or 9 at EARLIEST. i like to eat a moderate/big meal like 2 hours pre workout and thengo straight into training or eat a lite snack like 1/2 cup white rice and apple or graham crackers with cup of skim milk. wait about an hour and then train.
oh BTW - pre workout meals are important but not even close to as important a good Post Workout meal is.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
It is very important to eat carbs in the morning so that you "recarb" the liver. This keeps you out of a catabolic state. Otherwise the liver will recarb by converting protein (muscle) into sugar. Which would be a bad thing.
