What should I eat before an early morning workout when I have no appetite?

[kev_b1989]

I train at 6 a.m. and the thought of a real meal makes me queasy. I’ve tried skipping food and I run out of gas halfway through.

What do you eat that goes down easy?

I’d keep it really light if a full meal makes you queasy that early. A banana, a little applesauce, or a small carb drink can be enough to get some energy in without upsetting your stomach, then have a proper breakfast after training.

banana and a spoonful of peanut butter, or just a couple rice cakes with honey. liquid stuff goes down easiest for me, like a small shake or chocolate milk.

a handful of dried fruit or a small piece of toast works. i got used to it after a couple weeks

Banana and a spoonful of peanut butter is my go-to

a small bowl of oats or a banana blended with milk goes down easy for me
