Title: ATTN: coffee drinkers
Post by: Paul Allen on September 18, 2007, 07:55:45 AM
How much coffee do you drink?

I drink a 24 oz mug every day before 11 am.  I have one of those thermos bottles with a screw off cap that's used as a cup, i get about 6 cups, 24 oz. i fill the bottle to the brim.

is this too much?

Funny I recently, over the past year became a coffee drinker.  I was wondering the same thing, not a day goes by that I don't have coffee, unless I am still up from the night before   ;)

why drink coffee

...because it's a quick, cheap and easy way to get caffeine, which happens to be one of the better legal stimulants around.

Nah, it's cheaper to buy a bottle of vivarin caffeine tablets. 



I like the taste of coffee though.  I have about 2 cups through the whole day.  Sometimes if I am draggin ass before the gym at night I'll have one more cup.

COFFEE is great, but that's why I use it sparringly, it's too easy to gain tollerance and to become dependent on it.

Up to 2 cups a day is all right, after that switch to decaf. If you just like the taste decaf still has some caffeine.

If you just want the caffeine, pills from a drug store are at least as effective and aren't expensive.

I used to take those caffeine tabs before training but they make me feel queesy, coffee has never done that so maybe they have too much in the tabs?

Ya maybe the quantity or your reaction; try half a tab.

ok, i didn't ask if it's enough or too much caffeine wise, just in general.

i don't drink it for my bodybuilding needs necessarily, just to wake up in the morning.

i buy mine at starbucks, i think it's around 9.50 a lb , ground, lasts me and the old lady for about 10 days.

I used to drink shitloads of coffee... pretty much all day long.  I've recently switched to diet Red Bull or Monster to get my caffeine, though.

I drink 3-4 cups a day; unfortunately work coffee sucks, but it does the trick.   I love a good cup of coffee on a Saturday mornin before the gym....nothin better than grinding some good coffee beans, brewing a fresh pot and enjoyin a cup while bringing whiny Getbig posters to the point of suicide.
