Today, being a resistance training day, I took your advice. About 1 hour before my workout I consumed a home made whole wheat pancake with 1 tablespoon all natural peanut butter and 1/2 teaspoon of strawberry jam. It was the difference maker in my workout. I found that I had enough fuel left in the tank to sustain me during my intense workout. Thanks again! Best Regards, Matt Shawn,

I'm not sure if it will help anyone, but I've seen a few studies that reported simply ingesting 5-10 grams of BCAAs (Branch-chain Amino Acids) prior to fasted training can prevent some of the negative parts of training fasted (i.e. catabolism, energy crash, etc). Of course, the folks who choose to have a small meal that includes a bit of protein before training are getting BCAAs, anyway. But, I've found that I just can't muster the hunger to eat upon rising, so I've been using BCAAs before my morning weight training for a few months with nice results. Thanks, Blake Shawn –
