Good morning west coast!
.
Here’s some good news for those like me who like a good coffee fix in the morning or pre-workout. Researchers at RMIT university in Melbourne Australia have conducted a study on aerobic interval training blood platelet..
et function and caffein.
They wanted to get an idea as to whether or not caffein plays a negative role in blood platelet formation( a necessary part of blood clotting). The dose of caffein was high enough to enhance sport performance. However no negative effects on blood platelets were discovered. Caffein may also be able to increase platelet activation when under strenuous exercise! yipeeee!!
*coffee*shakes*
