Delves into coffee research and personal accounts about its benefits for performance.
Drinking coffee before high-intensity exercise can reduce muscle pain, according to a study from International journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism. Participants took a caffeine pill (the equivalent to 2 1/2 - 3 cups of coffee) one hour before 30 minutes of intense cycling and on another occasion took a placebo. The men's perception of pain was lower on days when they took the caffeine pill.
Eating Fuel to Exercise (NY Times).
