You increase muscle mass in two ways: by building up muscles and by preventing them from breaking down. If you eat some protein an hour or two before your workout, you will have more amino acids available to your muscles during exercise. This prevents the muscle tissue from breaking down as much as it otherwise would.
You also need pre-exercise carbohydrates to ensure you will have enough energy during your workout. Without this type of fuel, your muscles could break down the amino acids in your muscles for energy.
Here is an idea for a preworkout meal: Make a small shake with juice or fruit, milk, yogurt, and/or a scoop of whey protein powder. Fat and fiber slow digestion, so limit them before a workout.
