I always eat like an hour or two before I train, not heavy but a low carb pasta or chcken salad or whatever it gives me hella energy expecially when you have done about 2 hours of grappling drills with your partner then going live for 5 minute rounds. Although I heard it is better to eat after you train nutritionaly though. Does anyone have thoughts on this?

both

its good to eat a easily digested food high in protein after you workout, like a protein shake. ytou want it easy to digest so it dont take as much energy, and high in protein so you keep what you just worked for, if you dont get some protein in you after you workout your wasting alot of could of been muscle

I need to eat before or I will gas during the workout. Protein rich with some carbs.
