Training in the AM/ Pre workout meal

[LiftAR]

If you were to train first thing in the morning, let's say 6am, what would be your go-to breakfast/pre workout meal? I can't eat oats period, they digest terribly and would send me back to bed bloated. Shredded wheat with 45g whey poured over isn't too bad but I'd have to eat it a good 90mins pre training. Fasted sucks, I get no pump and I'm kinda burned out after a couple exercises.

I may try 3 rice crispy squares bars, 45g whey and some sea salt a better pump, could even add a piece of fruit with that, about an hour pre training... Suggestions?

I eat Rice porridge with peanut butter in the morning. It gives me a lot of energy.

Anything rice based (cream of rice, rice cakes etc.) paired with a whey isolate. Super easy to digest. Throw in a little PB to slow digestion of the meal slightly if need be.

Lol not sure if serious but i used to make these wicked energy balls. You just take dates, prunes, raisins, and some nuts of your choice (i like walnuts), crush the nuts up with a mallet then thriw everything in a food processor and mix it all up. Then just scoop it out with a spoon, roll into golf-ball sized balls, put in the fridge and voila. Grab and go as needed. You can also add oats into the mix probably, but i never did, i had a different recipe for oatmeal/coconut/chocolate drop cookies (no oven) that took just minutes to make and provided easily portable ready to go oatmeal.

My stomach immediately drags oatmeal to the toilet. Especially when training legs and squats is dangerous, very dangerous

I think you should try the taste of what you cook for yourself. I wondered how tasty it is or not.
