Caffeine Peri-Workout Timing
Caffeine peri-workout timing targets peak levels before hard work—often thirty to sixty minutes pre-session with dose scaled to body weight and sleep plan.
Caffeine peri-workout timing places intake thirty to sixty minutes before effort so peak blood levels hit warm-up or first hard set—roughly three to six milligrams per kilogram body weight is common in trials for endurance and strength, with lower doses often enough for habituated users. Late sessions need earlier cutoffs to protect sleep.
Food blunts jitters; empty stomach hits faster.
