Drinking coffee before a workout Anonymous
Is it a good idea? I haven't done it yet because I haven't begun working out yet, but whenever I drink coffee it gives me a serious energy boost like 20 minutes later. It's not just a quick boost that quickly dissipates, it lasts for over a few hours depending on what I do (two cups of coffee kept me awake for 24 hours so I could start and essay the other night).

So yeah, any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The only downside is that caffeine is a diuretic. Just be sure to drink enough water to replace what the caffeine sends out. And expect to have to stop to pee at some point.

Mix with skim milk and use sweetener instead of sugar and i can't imagine it being horrible for you.

I too drank a lot of coffee, till I noticed this.
For some reason when I drank a fair bit, and had to piss, it was like passing fucking razors.

Pretty sure it was the caffeine since now it's all good with decaf stuff.

It is a good idea. Drink some before you do your pre-breakfast HIIT. Also, start doing pre-breakfast HIIT.

Just yeah, BLACK coffee, with sweetener if you need it, otherwise, you shoot yourself in the foot.

Professional cyclists are notorious caffeine-hounds. Most of them drink a ton of coffee before races. And, in countries where it's still made with sugar instead of HFCS, a lot of racers will have Coke in their water bottles as an energy drink.

The hilarious thing is that the whole peloton has to stop about 1/3 of the way through a race for a 'nature break.'

You are correct, sir. I should've said that the entire peloton slows down for a nature break.

I've always wondered, though: What does the women's peloton do?

I finally understand decaf. I love the taste of coffee but hate having to piss twice through one mug.

I'd guess they just piss in their pants.
Some men do this too.

I drink like 4 cups of black coffee a day. I'm lactose intolerant and don't like sugar in my coffee (makes it taste worse if you ask me).

Get both my energy and concentration up! The only downside is I wake up with a slight headache in the mornings til I get some coffee in me.
