#56: What's the buzz about caffeine? Unpacking the benefits and drawbacks for runners

from The Running Rules Podcast · host Alan Ladd

Today we look at one of the most commonly used drugs in the world - caffeine. I unpack what caffeine is and what its effects are, why it can help with endurance performance and some of the drawbacks of it. I also discuss how to consume it and whether it is ethically sound. As with anything new, always test it out in training first and if you have any medical concerns, reach out to your doctor.
