Workout day breakfast - JP Fitness Forums

I am new here so please forgive me if this has recently been beat to death.
But I am trying to figure out what I can and should eat before heading out at 5:45 am to workout. I alternate between lifting and cardio days and everday do a protein shake when my workout is over. My dilemna is that I need something I can grab and go or takes just a moment to prepare so I can get out the door and get started. Any suggestions?

If I make a whey protein shake before bed, will it maitain its propeties until I drink it in the morning. Of course we have 7 inches of snow this morning so I just had a shake but the gyn is closed.

hmm, thats a good question. in case its not a good idea, could you just get your powder ready, then add the liquid when your ready for it?

what exactly do you put in it?

My shake is just whey protein, ISS 28G, a carnation instant breakfast( vitamins and minerals) and about 3g of creatine. I drink it right after my workout.I do not add the creqtine until the morning but make the shake the night before. Pre-workout I am trying to find something to work, I will try oatmeal and I always have about 2g of creatine in some apple juice.

My breakfast is 12oz water, 1.5 scoops of Optimum Nutrition Whey Protein, 1 cup of Oats, and 2 Tbsp of Natty PB. I blend it all together for a smooth breakfast shake. Um, Um, Good!

I have that about an 1 to 1.5 hours before I workout.
