banana before training, yes or no

Right so I've been going back and forth on this for months. Had a banana about 40 mins before my session last night and honestly I felt noticeably better than the nights I train on empty or have something too heavy. Like the difference was proper obvious. Energy didn't just drop off halfway through like it usually does. I know everyone's different but I'm starting to think I've been overthinking it. Something small, easy to digest, not too close to when I start. That seems to be it for me. Had my matcha before too which I always do now, just sits better than coffee did. To be fair I spent about two years just winging it — sometimes eating loads a couple of hours before, sometimes nothing, wondering why some sessions felt rubbish. Turns out there's no magic, just don't train on a full stomach and don't train starving. Genuinely took me way too long to land on that.
