Personally, I like working out on an empty stomach in the morning, I go in with a clear head and get my best workouts in that way.
Our bodies actually have enough glycogen stores from previous meals to fuel the workouts. For those who prefer to eat – go for something light and low in fat, and easy to digest carbs and protein.
