I've tried exercising at other times of day, but I like the metabolic boost that a morning workout provides. It helps me feel more energetic and alert the rest of the day.
I normally eat a piece of fruit on the way to the gym, usually and apple or banana. I did that long before this trial too. It's only about 100 calories, but I find it improves my workouts, especially when doing weights.
