Make it a practice to eat large meals at least three to 4 hours before working out. If you have a smaller sized meal, you can work out two to 3 hours after eating. Light snacks are typically fine when eaten right before and even during exercise.
The post-workout snack or meal should take place shortly after you complete your exercise. The ACSM and ADA recommend eating a carbohydrate snack 30 minutes after your workout, the amount of which should be 0.5 to 0.7 grams of carbohydrate per pound of body weight. You then should have a meal within the first two hours after your workout for the most effective recovery.
