What about coffee?

[SC4EVA]

Im sure it has been discussed a hundred times but whats the verdict with coffee? I can imagine not having a cup everymorning - Always use sweetner (EQUAL) along with a little half and half - Opinions?

 

[KIAN]

In moderation it is fine. The only concern would be if you were using Ephedra or supplements such as Hydroxycut where caffeine plays a part.

Fresh ground Dark French Roast
Cold filtered water
Drip brew with gold filter

Drink black. Enjoy

It's my one true vice, damnit. If someone tires to take it away from me, I'll kill them without pity

Black Coffee is YUK for me, i have to put milk and sugar

I like the appetite suppresent effects of caffine. And i like coffee, espresso, in the form of an 'Americano' or whatever. Peets italian roast very finely ground and dripped is pretty good also.

Now. However i think the problem is once the coffee buzz drops your body can go into carb craving mode. At least thats the theory.

I drink black coffee every morning followed by a liter of water. It tastes like crap, but it makes cardio more enjoyable.

Coffee is a must when I am tired or sleepy. I like to drink some before i play ball, makes me energetic as hell!

If you can buy freshly roasted coffee from a nearby roaster( or roast your own), the black coffee can be really palitable.

I used to drink lots of coffee before, as an excuse to take a break... now I don't drink any... hell, with all the water I drink, there is no room for anything else.

Tried it a couple of times before morning cardio but it made me hyper, too hyper.

The benefits largely outweighs the slight disadvantages

lOl Pintoca....you got that right. I run outside every morning and I wouldn't even consider leaving my home until...well you know.

Anyway, better out than in...so drink up coffee lovers.

Most people need to buildup a tolerance to caffeine before they can handle drinking 4-5 cups per day.
