According to research, caffeine can boost one's workout performance. This is the finding in a study published in the January 2011 issue of the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research.
On two laboratory visits, 13 moderately trained male subjects performed bench press repetitions to failure at 60 percent of their one-rep maximum. On one visit, they ingested caffeine, and on the other visit they took a placebo. Researchers found that subjects completed significantly greater weight when using caffeine. The caffeine group also had higher "mood state scores" for "vigor" and lower scores for "fatigue."
