It is important to eat a meal consisting of a specific macronutrient blend between 120 and 180 minutes before working out. One needs adequate time for the food to pass along the digestive tract so as not to cause indigestion or stomach pain during intense resistance training that regularly involves abdominal contractions. To provide sustained energy throughout a workout one should consume 30 grams of carbohydrates, coming from dietary fibers. Avoid simple sugars as they will give you a brief release of energy, but cause a "crash" shortly thereafter and invetiably interfering with one's workout. Furthermore, it is inadvisable and a waste of calories to consume more than 10 grams of protein pre-workout. At the very maximum, energy expendeiture provided by protein during resistance training consists of 15 percent. As evidenced by the latter percentage, protein is not biologically efficient for preworkout nutrition. Consuming a large amount of protein preworkout will simply be a waste of calories. Ideally, a preworkout meal should be 160-200 calories (10g protein, 30g carbohydrates, no more than 4.4 grams fat).

I just itch a little bit.

So what's this boil down to, a yogurt 2-2.5 hours before you train? ???
Yogurt lacks the macronutrient efficacy directly related to pre-workout nutrition. I would suggest 1/2 cup of rolled oats and either 1 small egg or 1/2 cup of firm tofu 3 hours prior to resistance training. This will provide you with 210-230 calories, ~12 grams of protein and almost 30g carbohydrates.
That's FIRM tofu, mind you. Not any of that soft shit.

good post by an intelligent, college graduate.
As opposed to a dumb communist, 19 year old homo who sponges off his parents because she doesn't have a job and doesn't pay taxes?
Where are you from? Texas, Kentucky or Mississippi?

Liberal California......Southern California.
Why are you so obsessed with this liberal and conservative bullshit? Get over it.
Have you read some of jt's posts? He's an admitted marxist/communist.
What's wrong with that?
I don't agree with Communism, but there's nothing really wrong with it. It's just another system of government.
Let people believe whatever they want. Your way isn't any better.
You're serious aren't you? What country are you from? seriously.
Please explain exactly what is wrong with communism.
Lots of people just think "Communism is bad", but they don't even have any reason to think it. They've just been brainwashed to automatically think that.
So what is wrong with Communism exactly?
I'm American.
Nothing man..communism is perfect :-\
See. You don't know anything about Communism so you can't answer the question.
