Early morning pre workout carbs?

[nemesis]

Hi, I've tryed searching the forum but couldn't find much to answer what I'm sure is a simple question......

As I am working out early in the morning (bloody early for me as I'm totally NOT a morning person) I find it hard to get enough food into me before a workout. i don't think I can get up much earlier than I already am doing in order to eat more so I'm wondering if I should be planning to get most of my pre workout carbs the night before and just top it up with a banana and protein shake 30 mins before hitting the weights. I can keep down that much at least.

Its not too bad right now as I've just started lifting again so not pushing extreme, but I know this lack of carbs/food will start effecting me in a few weeks when I start going for bigger lifts.

Thanks for any help on the subject

At the end of the day, there is no right and wrong answer, everybody reacts differently to early morning workouts. You could always throw a protein smoothie together and drink that as you train especially on heavy lifting days. Perhaps some of the big boys can answer from experience.
