Oats.
They fill you up and make you ready to go get shit done.

4 egg omelette with cheese and ham

>>35697619
150g müesli (basically oats with other cereals and some fruit) with milk and a protein shake.
>>
>>35697704
Everyone says oats to me but how the fuck am i supposed to cook them?
>>
>>35697619

coffee! Brilliant touch. I will add it to my breakfast blend.

beans or instant?

Do you add the sandwich to the blender too?
>>
>>35697755
You don't. Use rolled oats, pour milk over, eat like its cereal. Add a chopped banana if you need excitement in your life.
>>
>>35697769
and then i wait for a hour before working out? or do i go straight to running?
>>
I almost never eat breakfast. I'm always in too much of a rush in the AM because I smack that snooze button like Ray Rice does his wife.

If I am up early enough for breakfast it's hash browns, sunny side up with some hot sauce and a few sausage links.
>>
>>35697791
yes
>>
>>35697795
give it at least 45 mins to ward off any reflux and mid lift burps and give your enzymes time to fully digest some of the initial carbs for energy.

That banana and oats will keep you going well beyond lunch

Thanks, i just lost nearly 21kg worth of fat in 3 months , went from 115 to 93, working in a factory, plus minor dieting, cutting out soda and such, and now that im gonna start swimming and running, i was really confused about what to eat and when, before exercise and such
>>
>>35697806
Eat oats with milk.
It literally takes 10 minutes from pouring it out, to being done.
>>
I eat nothing before the gym. Studies show you burn more overall calories a day if you eat after you exercise in the morning.
>>
>>35697852
The only thing to think about in regards to WHEN to eat is 'when do i need energy?'

dont get caught up on the 'eat six times a day' or 'dont eat 2 hours before sleep' or 'muh metabolism' shit. if you put it in you it becomes energy, all that varies is when.

What do i do when i feel tired after running a while? should i relax for a bit or push myself? i don't know when to push myself
>>
>>35697959
don't stop when you're tired, stop when you're done.
>>
Ouaker Oats with Blueberries and some Dark Chocolate, or Skyr Yogurt with Protein Granola.

Have a cuppa Green Tea too and i'm all set for the Gym.
>>
>>35697959
are you breathing properly? shitty breathing techniques will kill your potential.

I cant tell you your own limits, just go until you are uncomfortable, then go a bit further and see what happens. Stop if it worries you.

keep doing that and you will improve
>>
>>35697941
Just what I read anon. They had three different groups of men try eating before and after the gym and one group not go at all (control group) the men that ate after their workout lost 2 more lbs in a month the the other groups.
>>
>>35697982
I try to breathe whenever i lift one foot off the ground
>>35697971
From a guy that works nearly 12 hour shifts some days packing boxes and putting them on pallets, do you think there would be any harm to me if i push myself while running? I'm on my feet nearly all day at work, unless im on break which is just 1 hour and 30 minutes
>>
>>35697959
Let your heart rate come down, take a stimulant, then start your workout.
>>
>>35698014
waaait what? that's way too often...

in through nose, out through mouth, and breath in for as long is comfortable then purse your lips and breath out. dont blow off too much CO2 or you will get dizzy

I usually eat two boiled eggs and 150g of greek yogurth
>>
>>35697755
Cook in the microwave for 2 minutes and put brotein powder and a banana in it after. Tastes godly
>>
>>35697619
+1 for oats

Here's my quick before gym bowl:
Flat, wide bowl
Add some oats
Add some water (~1:1, until they just barely start to float)
Pop in microwave while gathering other stuff
Stir halfway through cooking if you'd like, often helps overflowing from bowl
As soon as done, crack an egg into it
Stir egg into oats immediately (oats retain a lot of heat and the egg will cook into the bowl of oats)
Add a little protein powder (optional)
Top with berries (optional)
Add a little milk to moisten
Consume and get ready to lift

Pic one and only one you little shit
>>
>>35698505
I drink my other 2 scoops after my work out
Fight me, faggot, fight me right now!
>>
>>35698415
there is no way the egg would cook all the way through.
sickening bruh.
>>
>>35698542
Try it, it does. Can see the white before stirring it further
It's obviously important not to use too much egg > oat.
Even if it's evidently not cooked through, pop it back in the microwave for like 15 fucking seconds and it'll be done
I've been eating this for a long time and am still alive and well
