I Went One Month Without Coffee. Here’s What Happened…
Coffee is dangerous. It’s satisfying. Yet it’s addictive. It gives you energy, but it can cause you to crash in the afternoon. It can cause you to crash in the afternoon, but it can also keep you up all night that same day. So, I decided enough was enough. I went for one month without coffee. This blog post will provide you with what I learned from the experience.
Let’s dig in.
Why I love coffee
I drank coffee because it gives me energy. It gives me that kick of energy I need when I wake up tired. It helps me get through my grueling workouts. Without it, I used to crash and burn. By my third or fourth exercise, I’d be tapped out. I’d be too tired to perform my best on each lift.
A friend recommended me to drink caffeine before each workout. He recommended pre-workout, but also said coffee could work. I already enjoyed drinking coffee. So, I decided to drink it consistently before each workout.
The effects immediately began to pay off during my next workout.
I no longer struggled to get through my workout. I had the energy to push through it. Even through the Bulgarian Split Squats (A challenging exercise) I perform towards the end of my workout.
