    Caffeine is just not that good for your recovery. It cause me to cramp up. If you want to get an energy boost I'd look at NOx based drink or juice a cup of pure parsley. Yeah, it sounds nuts but if you juice a cup of parsley with two green apples it's an awesome energy drink. 100% natural and no cramping.

    Actually caffeine makes your metabolism work harder so it will have an effect on your insulin when you start burning calories. But will it be a big difference, no.

    im using caffeine for 18mnths now. never had any problems, reduces muscle fatigue enormously.but on the downside increases chances of straining your joints. i use 2x200mg pills 50mins before wkot(it takes time for the stuff to kick in for me). also I use the stuff for 3 months & discontinue for a month.works that way for me.
