I love milk. Drink half a gallon a day. Cant stand cottage cheese. I dont like cheese. Alone at least, if its on somthing I'll eat it.

I see a lot of people doing that to their peaches! Why ruin perfectly good peaches with crap like that?!

Because....Murica :)

I try to eat an apple/banana or a scoop of PB before I work out (along with a scoop of pre-workout hehe).

Post workout I make a bee line for Panda Express and get the plate (two entrees) with both entrees being grilled chicken and either brown rice or steamed veggies. About 60-70+ grams of protein...I eat it every single day. I love it. Just eat (modified by your goals of course)

hello brothers and ladies.
I would like to start a thread on pre and post-workout Foods. I hear a lot of things, and I would like to get a lot of input from other bodybuilders.
Pre-workout is the hardest for me I try to eat a banana but most the time I don't like to eat too much before I go into the gym because I'm told not to, however after workouts I love eating cottage cheese, peanut butter, anything I can find with protein in it. I don't stock up on calories enough before I go into the gym, that's what I slack on. But I'd like to hear experience on other people's personal experience. Thanks

I don't eat pre-workout. I like to train fasted, I also find it sometimes makes it hard to train with a full belly.

Post-workout I usually get in a carb fix, to replenish those glycogen stores and to take advantages of my engine burning all hot at that time.

No reason to train on a full belly. Pre workout meal should be an hour to two hours before u train. Don't eat a full course meal then go squat til u throw up. Lol

Nature's little, neatly packed amino acid. If your doing large numbers per sitting, remove some of the yolks. So if I'm eating 6-8 eggs for breakfast, I'll only keep 2 yolks because, well, I dunno. Just doesn't seem American to eat only egg whites

Love unborn baby chicken

Preworkout I usually eat two cups of oatmeal with two scoops of protein mixed in....or two scoops of oatmeal and I'll straight up drink two cups of eggs whites. Sometimes I'll do 6 eggs cooked as well.

Post workout I usually eat whatever at the moment but I always make sure I get protein etc in. If it's after legs I'll eat a damn pizza lol.

I find it hard to train on an empty stomach but it's also worse if I eat too much I like a light snack.
Thanks for the advice I got some ideas out of some of the comments but I'd like to try out.
I like oatmeal are small protein shake before I workout.

Them egg muffin things gave me a chub. Im going to go buy a muffin pan after my kids wrestling meet. I gotta try those.

Im with my nizzle dizzle on pre workout. I feel a zillion times better training fasted. I have so much more energy and just feel better all around.

Post workout dosnt have any specific plan outside as little fat as possible. Tons of carbs and protein PWO and im good.

I don't eat sht before I work out. I wake up, drink my preworkout on an empty stomach (so it kicks in super fast), workout, then eat a 1,000+ calorie meal. That's what works the best for me.

First thing in the morning: (shake) rice milk, banana, strawberries, unflavored whey, unflavored preworkout
<gym :D>
When I get home: (shake) rice milk, banana, blueberries, chocolate whey, almond butter

1 hr later: 4 eggs, mushrooms, onions, green peppers, bacon or sausage scramble that the wife whips up for me
