Researching ways to improve performance, prevent injuries, and accelerate recovery.
🧪Even given these shortcomings, if you are looking to maximize exercise training, limiting caffeine intake may be warranted. Also, using a high caffeine pre-workout supplement may not be the best idea (since more blood, and therefore caffeine, will flow to the muscles you are training).

🧪Before you yell at me, or god forbid stop drinking coffee, realize two things. First, the dose of caffeine is quite high; equivalent to 6+ cups of coffee a day. Second, the effect in vivo (in mice) was quite small.

You can do it once a day. For elite athletes trying to come back as fast as possible we might load more. But, for us mere mortals daily is great

I always do isometrics after any other training or activity. If you have active tendinopathies, you may want to add 10 second holds of the specific tendons you are targeting in your sport. Doing a 10s isometric for the Achilles before tennis/pickleball would be strongly advised.
