Default New AM Cardio Question

Hey all!

I know that there was an extensive thread about this already, and I'm sure this question was answered somewhere in there, but I don't have time to go through 63 responses. So I'll just ask it here:

I do work out in the mornings (I'm a college student), however, about 15 minutes to half an hour b/f hand I eat half a LC Protein bar. Then about 15 minutes after the workout, I eat the other half. I started doing this because I was worried about losing too much lean body mass.

My workout consists of 20 minutes on an eliptical machine (thats how long the gym lets you use the cardio equip b/c of the lines), followed by weight training (I alternate lower and upper body days. My lower body is leg press followed by abductors and adductors, ending off with calves. My upper body is a sitting row machine, shoulder press, pecs press, and then biceps/triceps).

Since it's a LC bar, is it still ok? I just feel like I have no energy when I enter into my workouts on an empty stomach.

-Sophie
