But in fact, some people drink coffee to achieve better results in fitness. Many people who work out drink multiple cups of coffee every day. This is because caffeine can improve the body's anaerobic exercise capacity and allow the body to enter an exercise state more quickly. This change may not have much effect on the average person, but for fitness fanatics, drinking coffee can greatly improve their fitness efficiency. However, except for people who work out, doctors do not recommend that ordinary people try to drink multiple cups of coffee a day for other purposes. The human body can only consume caffeine at a limited rate. The caffeine that an average person ingests by drinking a cup of coffee will most likely still be in one’s system the next morning.
