TL;DR Summary

Whether to eat breakfast before or after an early-morning workout is a personal choice, but nutritionists suggest eating a small carbohydrate-rich snack before exercising to improve workout performance. However, some people may have enough energy stored from the night before to sustain their early workout. It's important to experiment and determine what eating pattern works best for your body. Pre-workout hydration is crucial, and it's suggested to drink about 16 ounces of water in the hour before exercising. A post-workout meal is crucial, and it's recommended to eat carbs and protein within two hours of exercising to rebuild glycogen stores and regrow muscle proteins.
