A java jolt may boost, not wreck, your workout
2007-08-29 22:07:00 Good news for java junkies: You don’t have to skip your caffeine fix to get in a good workout — even in the hot summer months when coffee’s widely believed to promote dehydration. What’s more, a caffeinated beverage may actually help you exercise longer. “For years, people have believed that consuming caffeine would dehydrate the body or result in an electrolyte imbalance or that it might affect body temperature and have a negative impact on heat tolerance during exercise,” says Lawrence Armstrong, a professor of exercise physiology at the Human Performance Laboratory at the University of Connecticut in Storrs. “Our research indicates that none of these concerns is valid,” he says. Fitness experts and dietitians have long advised that exercisers drink up before and during physical activity — but avoid caffeine. Turns out, though, there’s no convincing evidence to support this recommendation, says Armstrong, who published an article...
