Caffeine is the worlds most popular psychoactive drug, and is enjoyed by many of us in things like tea, coffee, and energy gels. A proven ergogenic aid, caffeine was actually on the WADA banned substances list for a period of time! In this video, Ollie dons his science glasses and explains what caffeine actually is, and how it can enhance your cycling performance.

@ShakeNBakeUK 3 года назад

It's interesting, cos you'd think that artificially raising your HR would be detrimental in an endurance sport. For instance, if you have no issues red-lining your HR on a bicycle, does caffeine really help you? Surely you want to do everything in your power to try and keep HR down, rather than boost it up..? However for those who struggle to max out their HR, I can see it being useful.

@jasonmcgrody9472 3 года назад

If it's an endurance event you're probably not getting close to max HR, anyway, right?

@g.west2372 3 года назад

the big difference of teein (german name for coffein stored in tea leaves) vs. coffein is, the binding mechanism... "Teein" is complexed with polyphenols, which gets released and absorbed the intestine, whilst coffein (Coffee) is complexed in a chlorogenacid-potassium-complex, which should release the Coffein molecules (active component) whilst brewing. -> Coffee hits harder and faster, while "Teein" gets released later and over a longer duration.

Couch-potato tip, if you want to lessen the amount of caffeine in a cup of tea, if you are using a teabag or leaves simply pour hot H2O over into the mug with the bag or leaves, count to 10 and then discard the water. Then, refill the cup and steep to your preference. I am not sure if this will work with coffee, although if using a French Press or pour over methods, maybe worth a shot. Not sure how much is actually removed, but would make an interesting experiment.

@narcosis9842 3 года назад

As a coffee lover, I discovered through excess consumption that I am liable to SVT (heart condition) likely brought on by too much stimulant. This manifested itself on workouts on the bike. Now I general try and drink decaf or cafine free and save real cafine hits for club runs. So worth being aware that cafine can have negative affects. Worth noting, I haven't had any SVT incidents in over 6 months since going decaf or cafine free....touch wood....or Ollie's head; sorry Ollie 🤣 Ps Waitrose is the only shop I have found that sell decaf coffee beans. After grinding, there is little difference in taste to normal beans.
