      You could do a warmup walk/run to get your bowels going before the main run.

      Did you know that there are 40 different beans to use in the world. World wide over the last 80 years we have only used 2/40 beans. Aribica and robustA.
      100mg of caffiene is low.
      300/450mg is perfect.
      Also, the more fluid oz you have the more caffiene.
      Aribica has barely caffiene.. eg Starbucks costa....

    I only use caffeine for races. I take 2.5mg per kilogram about 30 minutes before the start- caffeine tablets. Between races and off season, no regular coffee or tea drinking as regular consumption of caffeine reduces it’s performance boosting qualities. Caffeine gives a significant performance boost.
    Train without it. Race with it. (do several runs during training at race pace with your expected caffeine dose to make sure you tolerate it!)

    Remember that caffeine is also a diuretic. Which means your body can loose a lot water when you drink or ingest it. So make sure you drink a little extra water to balance things out.

    • @Kelly_Ben
      @Kelly_Ben Рік тому

      New studies have shown that if your body is acclimated to drinking caffeine regularly, you actually do benefit somewhat from the water intake. Not 100%, it's still a diuretic, but you do wind up net positive.

  • @logiconabstractions6596

    I used to drink coffee every day, multiple cups a day. Probably 400-500mg a day total, assuming ~100mg/cup (I was partial towards bigger cups).
    Then I skipped a day one week-end, had a hell of a headache all day, and decided I was going to switch to decaf for a while. I just didn't like the idea of being dependent on a substance just to feel OK. And at that point, it's pretty much was it was: I was feeling OK with coffee, but I didn't really feel the benefits, I didn't really get the caffeine high all that much anymore. Coffee === normal state, note coffee == crap. I actually extended to running - my run felt a lot harder for the first few days without caffeine.
    I've been on decaf for a few months, now it's a mix of both. And while before, as I said, I didn't really feel anything in particular after having coffee, nowadays I do. I do have more energy during a run if I had coffee that day, my stride feels a little bit bouncier.
    Bottom line is, imo: if you're used to take coffee each and every day, you're probably not getting much out of it anymore. There seems, at least for me, to be a pretty good tolerance effect developing with daily caffeine. If you expect to enjoy the benefits when you train, I would suggest to cut down on coffee, at least every other day or something.

    • @Kelly_Ben
      @Kelly_Ben Рік тому

      So true! I drink half decaf/ half high test every morning. That way I still have the option to go full caffeine on days I need/ want it, and get the benefits, without skipping my morning wake up ritual.

    I honestly don't get drinking caffeine pre-run. I run first thing in the morning and I am tired at times as well but the run usually wakes me up. All that happens when I run with caffeine is an increase in HR and garmin giving me a negative performance condition. This is coming from a coffee addict, but I drink it after my run, taste sooooo good after my morning run.

I can usually run 6.2 miles in about 54 minutes, now this pain just slow me down on this session.
