I have some complex carbs such as oatmeal or wheat bread aobut 40 minutes before my workout.

If you are taking creatine have 5 grams with some dextrose or malodextrin about 30 minutes pre workout.

some complex carbs, some fat, and some protein about an hour before lifting...

I usually make myself a shake using MUSCLE MILK powder...
