^what you said is definetly true. However, not everyone can train fasted, as some guys are a bit more insulin sensitive (have fluctuations in their blood sugar levels) during the course of a fasted workout. I personally cant train fasted, ive tried it a few times and i just end up with a shitty workout. A fasted cardio session is fine, its when i start hitting the weights and really start tapping into my glycogen that i start to lose energy. Im not sure if jc95 has ever tried training fasted before, but if he hasnt, id suggest him to try it out and see how it goes. But because he asked "what types of food are good for preworkout" i was assuming he has tried fasted workouts and it wasnt his thing. And besides, i remember reading somewhere that hes a hardgainer, so itll be good for him to get his calories in anyway.
With all these scientific facts, there are always going to be exceptions haha. I personally cant do a workout without having slept for at least 10 hours. A bodybuilder friend of mine, is able to get a nice workout in with 4-6 hours of sleep.
