Theer have ben many pros and cons about this. Some say don't eat you burn more, some say eat you burn more. The latter works realy well. Eating a small snackish meal before working out does a number fo things. First the body is using calories to buirn the food you just ate.
Second its burning calories and energy in tehe xercise.
third it makes you less distracted. Many people when they exercise really do obscess about food. Look at the snack bars at the gyms!
By feeding teh body a bit before exercise you focus more on tehe xercise at hand and nto on what am i going to eat afterwards.
second it provides needed energy to go that extra rep.
then by having some protein in yor snack prior to your workout, you being to replace almost immedately muscle.
A balanced snack consists of nor more than 30 grams of carbohydrate and 15-20 grams of protein. Limit fiber as it can cause gas and bloating prior to the workout and doesn't provide energy for a complete workout.
Low blood sugars and high rebound blood sugars for diabetics does happen. So eating a food bar that has both proteins and carbs in a balance d combination is a cheat but it works.
Sandwiches that feature whole wheat breads or crackers, lean meats is ideal.
This will also helpo to avoid rebound eating and rebound drinking. Rebounding si where you havent eaten anything and you do a workout and your body begins ot crave everything it can get. By doing the non eat before workout you stand a chance of eating poorly afterwards.
