Caffeine can improve your athletic performance because it can help your nervous system to react more quickly, it reduces pain and can help speed up our muscle contractions, says Kyle Byron a personal trainer and nutritionist in Toronto. Drink a cup of coffee an hour to an hour and a half before a workout to utilize its buzzy benefits. Steer clear of caffeine supplements and stick with a cup of joe as it also contains antioxidants. But be warned, too much can have a negative effect on your performance and make you jittery or nauseated.
