Drinking coffee improves sports performance
Researchers have found that drinking coffee is associated with improving sports performance in both men and women.
For the study, published in the journal Nutrients, the researchers from Coventry University in the UK picked 38 participants (19 men, 19 women) and found that drinking caffeinated coffee improves the speed of cycling.
According to the researchers, participants restricted coffee consumption for 12 hours before drinking either — coffee providing (3mg.kg minus one) of caffeine, a placebo in water or nothing as a control.
