What are the effects of caffeine on power output during high-intensity performance?
1 Introduction
The effect caffeine (CAFF) elicits on sustained endurance performance is well founded (Costill, Dalsky, & Fink, 1978; Graham, & Spriet, 1991; Trice, & Haymes, 1995; Erickson, Schwarzkoff, & McKenzie, 1987). However, comparatively less research has been conducted on the ergogenic potential of CAFF on anaerobic performance (Wiles, Coleman, Tegerdine, & Swaine, 2006; Crowe, Leicht, & Spinks, 2006). Furthermore, several studies that have been carried out on CAFF ingestion and the response to high-intensity exercise have …show more content…
