Coffee Before Workouts

Good Day All,

Since that post a while ago about how bad coffee is cause of the insulin sensitivity and all that, I am sure I am not the only one who has held back on the java. BUT, I have a question: if it increases sensitivity so much (bad during the day) would that not be beneficial before a workout?? Not just that, but I read that it affects you for like 3-4 hours workout, meaning PERFECT because it goes directly parrallel to your post workout nutrition window when you want high GI stuff and replenishing nutrients??

Just a thought (its rather late here

)

I don't believe in pre workout energy boosts. Just take a caffeine pill or some B vitamins...if it lasts 3-4 hours, I don't consider that high GI....

If its that bad for you, Why did Arnold drink coffee before a work out?
