Skipping breakfast is common by those that exercise in the morning, but healthy carbs are needed after an overnight fast. A meal before a workout should be low in fat because fat takes longer to digest, which can cause an upset stomach.

Option to make with water just before a workout as then only 90 calories but you are still topping up your fuel tanks.

For athletes, glutamine is an important supplement because it promotes glycogen formation and protein synthesis, prevents the consumption of muscle tissue for energy, and boosts levels of growth hormones.
The Importance Of Nutrients
"Science shows that proper nutrition at the cellular level is at least as important to both health and athletic performance as strength training, cardiovascular training, and recovery time. In fact, it’s the foundation for everything else. When you’ve trained as hard as you can, supplementing your diet with nutrients designed specifically to boost muscle growth, recovery, circulation, energy efficiency, and resilience of muscle fibers and connective tissue make all the difference."
