Could it be a good idea to eat something sugary before a workout?

Complex carbs: It can be helpful to eat complex carbs at least an hour before a workout. Some people like to eat a little fruit as another option. Generally i don't recommend sugar or sweets before a workout, since they can make your blood sugar spike high then drop.
