Re: Caffeine In Sports
Caffeine is a diuretic so it makes it so you don't retain water and thus dehydrate. This is no good for most sports. It also makes you pee lots.
I remember drinking a red bull before a long run and I definitely noticed a negative effect towards the middle of the run.
So it can definitely give you energy in short bursts but can be long term detrimental for endurance purposes.
