Should you eat before a workout?

I get this question all the time: I exercise first thing in the morning - should I eat something first?

The answer is YES. By the time morning rolls around, your body has used up all the readily available energy keeping itself running while you sleep. Rev up your engine by eating something small and quickly digested so that you have more energy to put into your workout. If you routinely feel sluggish or tired during morning workouts, try eating first.
