Try to eat at least 50g carbs before workouts just for better performance but in terms of protein and the “anabolic window” it doesn’t matter before or after

For fueling really tough workouts its best within a few hours but as long as your overall daily/ diet macros are good I personally don't think adding a certain amount of anything is important unless you're an endurance athlete ljke running long distances. For hard cardio like that you add 30-60g carbs per hour

Going fasting burns stored energy but then you immediately replenish it and just feel weak during the workout
