When it comes to eating before exercise, it's all about timing. No matter what time of day you choose to exercise, make sure to plan your workout two to three hours after your meal. Going overboard with too much food right before a workout will leave you feeling sluggish and can lead to stomach discomfort.
As a general rule of thumb, when it comes to pre-workout eating, you can time it any way you like, but the closer you get to a workout, the more simple the meal should be, says Sass. If you eat two to three hours before, you'll have time for your food to digest and be absorb from your GI tract into your blood. Therefore, you can eat a more complex meal containing protein, fat and fiber, which take longer to break down. Within an hour of a workout, however, you should eat something that will be digested and absorbed more quickly, says Sass (like a small bowl of cereal or a piece of fruit).
