If you like to have a cup of joe before your daily exercise but aren't sure if it's helping or hurting... We have good news, it HELPS!
This well-done study on coffee (thank you to the authors for putting this together) before various types of exercises was shown to be ergogenic (improves muscle strength and endurance + improves muscular efficiency).
"Ergogenic effects of caffeine on muscle endurance, muscle strength, anaerobic power, and aerobic endurance were substantiated by the moderate quality of evidence coming from moderate-to-high quality systematic reviews"
Have a nice cup of liquid gold before your next session of walking your pets, running, biking or gym time and let us know how it went!
