MECHANISMS OF ACTION

Caffeine consumption can affect the body in a number of ways, principally through the Key Points
Sound evidence exists to demonstrate that adenosine receptors (2). Due to the complex caffeine has ergogenic effects on both short biochemistry and interacting responses, the and long term endurance as well as short term ergogenic effect of caffeine remain unclear. Evidence also supports the positive effect of modulation of the hormones involved in fat performance such as concentration, alertness, sparing (1). Recent findings, however, do not oxidation is not important in some situations unclear, although it is likely that caffeine stimulates the central nervous system altering sympathetic activity, motor recruitment and Performance benefits have been shown with It is well established that caffeine can doses ranging from 1-13 mg/kg body mass; although it would appear that there is no dose recruitment and perception of effort and It appears that caffeine does not promote pain (3).

INTRODUCTION
Caffeine (1,3,7-trimethylxanthine) is a naturally intensity for as long as possible and can be occurring compound found in the leaves, nuts and seeds of various plants. Despite being classified (performance test) or exercise to exhaustion as a drug, caffeine is currently legal, socially (capacity test). Caffeine has been shown to acceptable and enjoys widespread use around the world. Caffeine is commonly consumed in various forms including coffee, tea and soft drinks, 120-minutes (1,4,5,6,7,8). The magnitude of providing approximately 30-100 mg of caffeine per serve. Within the UK, the mean daily caffeine intake is estimated at 4 mg/kg body mass while it study design. Currently, only a few studies is recognised that heavy tea and coffee drinkers report no ergogenic benefits of caffeine (9), consume an estimated 7.5 mg/kg body mass with no studies reporting a negative effect.

Supporting research for the These results appear to be independent of ergogenic properties of caffeine stretches back individual fitness level, caffeine dose, 100 years, with the first well controlled study reportedly published in 1907 (1) .

Despite different research designs, both reported the ingestion of recognition memory compared with placebo. 6 mg/kg body mass caffeine 60-minutes prior to exercise improved the amount of work done within the military, with the beneficial effects (sprints) compared to placebo in both the first of caffeine ingestion on reaction time and and second half by 6-10%. It was concluded that sustained attention, or vigilance, tasks intermittent high intensity team sport by delaying the onset of fatigue.

Interestingly, the work of Cox et al., (4) Research has clearly demonstrated that caffeine reported improvements in performance with through its effects on the central nervous system, caffeine ingestion at doses as low 1 mg/kg can significantly improve alertness (14), concentration (15,16), memory (7,14) and reaction response following a time trial performance. time (14,16). Such results have been shown to Currently data investigating the comparison occur at caffeine doses as low as 12.5 mg to of single and repeated doses of caffeine has doses as high as 350 mg, with the ingestion of found that caffeine divided between before caffeine in isolation (16) or in combination with and during exercise provides no ergogenic carbohydrate (7,15).
