Fueling for a 5am workout

There’s a big thread here on exactly your question:

Early Morning Workouts

Wanted to see what tips the early risers out there have to get you up and straight on the trainer early AM? With my family and other commitments it’s getting to a point where getting up early (5.30) and getting the workout done before work is my best option but whilst I am fully motivated at night, when I wake up I feel so lethargic and find it so difficult to jump straight on the trainer. It’s making it even less appealing now it’s turning colder (train in the garage)
