Caffeine is the world's most widely used natural stimulant, found in coffee, tea, and various other sources. It works by blocking adenosine receptors in the brain, temporarily preventing both physical and mental fatigue.

When consuming caffeine for exercise performance, three key factors matter: dose, timing, and individual response. A typical low dose is 100mg, while a high dose is around 300mg. For optimal results, consume caffeine about 60 minutes before exercise, though timing varies by source.

  • Precise dosing
  • Faster absorption
  • No excess liquid before workouts
  • Convenient for on-the-go use
  • Better for those with sensitive stomachs
