Personally I find it very hard to eat anything when I wake up, and I'm def not a morning person or lifter. Sorry wish I could help. Either way I dont ever have good workouts in a fasted state. Try to at least get a shake down and you should be ok to protect muscle.
agreed, try to get down a carb/protein shake or a carb/free form amino acid supp right when you wake up. After that take a shower, then jp8 or your inferior preWO supp
and then drive off to the gym.
Thats what i do for morning lifts and I have the same qaulity lifts whether eating all day then training at night, or simply slamming simple carbs/protein AM then hitting the gym. Pretty much as long as I get my JP8 and am carbed up then Im good to go and you should be too.
Hope it helps man.
Ideas of simple carbs/protein: upon waking slam two scoops of your fav protein in a shake, then sip on gatorade powder while doing your morning routine. Ive heard of ppl who like Xtreme Nutritions Vendetta for first thing before lifting, but personally I find it to be the worst tasting eaa supp out there and prefer whole proteins, however, some do like that supp so im throwing it out there.
Another idea is a good eaa supp such as LG's or Primaforces (I like both) mixed table sugar and avants supercarb
Lastly, Omega Nutrition ONE gets you aminos (although not a full profile) and hrs, a badass carb source.
Ive went all these routes with success, my fav is the 2 scoops protein and gatorade.
