Pre-workout carbs

Because of my schedule, i wake up at 5am, eat 2 cups' of oats, and 1 banana for carbs, and i train around 6:30
If it's leg day, i'll try to eat some fast reacting carb's right before i train! Im also interested to see what other people think!
Oh yah !
nothing beats' training after popping 4 dbol tabs 😉

I usually have a descent size meal that includes primarily complex carbs and a moderate amount of protein about an hour before working out. I'm on more of a bulking diet these days so I'm not concerned with calories; I'm taking in about 100g CHO, 40g PRO along with some healthy fats an hour prior.
Usually the general rule of thumb is complex ~1hr prior to the workout and simple carbs immediately following to maximize CHO stores and replenishment, respectively. However, unless you are going to be doing another workout within a few hours following the workout, either type of carb is probably fine to replenish glycogen stores.

apple & a shake 30-60min before

Thanks guys for the suggestions.

so long as ur post workout nutrition is good, i dont think a large amount of carbs pre workout is necessary... that is if u replenish ur glycogen stores after a workout, ur still gonna be carb loaded when u wake up in the morning, barring any intense morning exercise... i tend to start consuming my carbs during my workout and mostly post workout... pre workout i only have 2 slices of whole wheat toast and an apple for my carb intake with my breakfast then i workout about 2 hours later

I've recently started eating pasta before I go to bed, I've been getting up at 5 am to lift before work. I supplement with bread and my favorite carb of all, corn. I've felt a little boost since I began doing that.
The post workout nutrition I've got a better handle on..after lifting hard, I'm starved, so I eat lots of lean protein, greens and breads and pasta.
Off topic but, though my low-carb days are behind me (helped me lose 160 lbs) I still get a spurt of energy when I restrict the carbs for a day or two and then load up on them. I do this sometimes for my favorite day: Chest Day.
Thanks JondonMuscle for taking the time to advise..much appreciated.

i take in 3 meals each 2.5 hours apart. my carbs are mostly oats and i have 2 cups at each meal. right before i train i have a gatorade or fast carb drink. i dont have any protein with that just the carb drink. i find i am MUCH better fueled for my workouts like this. i used to have only 2 meals prior to training with piss weak amounts of carbs and then wonder why i couldnt lift anything. i take in most of my carbs in those 3 meals and the drink and right after training with a shake then taper them off in my last few meals for the rest of the day/night my last meal of the day has around 20-30g carbs then a protein/fat meal before bed usually egg whites and some yolks or a WPC shake with penut butter or whole eggs.
