EndurElite Chief Endurance Officer Matt Mosman discusses how caffeine works on a physiological level to help you run, bike, and do other endurance exercise FASTER!
How Does Caffeine Work?
Like the way caffeine makes you feel but ever wonder how it works?
When you ingest caffeine it competes with another molecule in the body called adenosine for the adenosine receptor.
When adenosine binds to the receptor you feel tired and fatigued.
When caffeine binds to the receptor you feel energized, focused, and experience less pain during hard exercise.
Doses of 3-6mg per kg body weight 60 minutes before exercise for enhanced performance.
Caffeine anhydrous has been demonstrated to be superior to the caffeine found in coffee.
