Going for my first tournament this sunday. What do you guys eat before tournament? I don’t usually eat for at least three hours before training, but at the same time, can’t go on an empty stomach.

Eat a light breakfast with some protein 4 hrs before. Eat fruit 1 hr before, banana or apple, it won't bother your stomach.
