I'm going to give morning training a try tomorrow. I have done this before but always had better results working out later in the day with more meals in my body. I'm going to need to do something different with a busy work schedule and I think that morning training will be the solution!
I'll begin with an normal breakfast right when I wake up and an hour prior to training: 4 whites/2 whole eggs, 1 cup oats, 6 oz lean ground beef. Pre training supplements will be creatine/glutamine one scoop of each about 15 minutes prior. I'm thinking of maybe drinking a two scoop UMP shake during the workout.... Does anyone agree/disagree with what I am doing here or have anything to add that may help a morning training session be more effective? "Rome wasn't built in a day" |

I have been training in the morning for the last 18 months or so. It was a very difficult adjustment at first. I tried all sorts of combinations with meal timing and supplements. I never really felt great in the gym after eating a full meal. So, believe it or not, I like to go basically empty. I throw down some pre-workout supps as soon as my eyes open. I get some stuff ready around the house and then have one scoop of protein before heading out the door. This is light in my stomach and I feel I get more of a supplement boost.
One thing...you just pretty much have to accept that you are going to be weaker in the morning. I really notice the difference if I switch-up and go in the evening. My strength goes up significantly. Oh well, I don't need to be lifting super-heavy with my injury history anyway. It's cool....I get to spend more time with my son. Get to bed early....and get used to it. |
