what do you actually eat before training

Right so I've been experimenting with this for ages and I still haven't fully nailed it tbh. Too much and I feel sick halfway through box jumps. Too little and I'm running on fumes by round three. At the moment I'm doing a banana and a small bowl of oats about 45 mins before. Sometimes I'll have my matcha pre-workout on top of that if it's an early session and I need a bit of a push. Works for me most days, mind you some mornings I just can't stomach anything solid and I wing it. Curious what everyone else does — like do you actually plan it or just grab whatever's in the kitchen?

same struggle honestly, took me ages to figure out timing. I can't do oats before anything intense, go for a small protein shake and half a banana now

banana and oats is pretty much my go-to too, maybe swap to rice cakes if it's a heavy lifting day and I don't want to feel sluggish

on the mornings I can't stomach solids I just blend whatever's going soft in the fruit bowl with some oats — goes down way easier than eating it
