What do you guys eat before a workout? A few days ago I had a super shitty workout after not eating breakfast and eating only a banana before hitting the weights. How much food and what types of foods should I be ingesting before, and how long should I wait before starting?

I usually wait at least two hours after last meal to workout. I take a preworkout or just some caffeine before to give an energy boost.

eat carbs, such as rice, pasta, potatoes or honey, an hour or so before training. you can also have some coffee with that

Personally I found that eating some peanut butter before I work out gives me a good burst of energy. Kind of whatever works for you, but don't eat heavy filling food in my opinion
>>
My best performance is when I have a large meal around 1-1.5 hours before lifting. And by large meal I mean 2 plates full with some kind of meat/carb/veggie combo.

I tried fasted training (with BCAAs), total shit.
Really anything less than a full meal is suboptimal for me. I either have no energy to begin with or I run out if steam after an hour or so. And with my workouts taking usually more than 1.5 hours, I need the fucking energy.
I would like to lift in the morning, but I don't know what I could eat that would provide me with the necessity energy. And I also have not really any appetite in the morning...
