What is the best thing to eat before a workout?

Eating a banana pre-workout is the perfect way to boost your glycogen stores and increase blood sugar levels.
  • Chicken, Rice & Vegetables.

  • Porridge and Oatmeal.
  • Fruit Smoothies.
  • Wholegrain Bread, Sweet Potato and Brown Rice.

Simply so, what should I eat 1 hour before workout?

  1. Fruit juice.
  2. Fruit smoothie.
  3. High-glycemic fruits like pineapple, apricots, banana, mango and watermelon.
  4. Sports drinks.
  5. Pretzels or bagels (but not whole grain varieties, which digest slowly)
  6. Energy bars (look for 3-5 grams of protein, at least 15 grams of carbs and very little fat)

What I should eat before going to the gym?

A 1-cup serving of bananas has 23 percent of the daily recommended amount of potassium, and the fruit's sugars and starches help give your body the energy it needs for a thorough workout at the gym. For variety, drink a glass of orange juice with half of a banana or eat a banana with a smear of peanut butter.
