Drinking coffee before and after working out, there is such a big difference.

I don't know if there are any friends like Fire King who like to get up in the morning and drink a cup of fragrant coffee after a sweaty workout.

However, this is a serious mistake. The body produces a hormone called cortisol during exercise. This hormone is a hormone that can be naturally produced by the body called corticosteroids. Others call it a stress hormone because humans produce more of it when they are under significant stress. The muscle antagonistic response is the most obvious. Because cortisol is released during exercise to cope with the stress of fitness, your body is in a state of catabolism, and your body produces testosterone, which stimulates muscle growth, burns fat and brings many other benefits, including improved mood, sleep, libido, energy, physical and mental health, and a higher quality of life. So the ratio of cortisol to testosterone is essential for muscle recovery.

When you finish a day of exercise, you should first reduce your cortisol levels to regulate the ratio of testosterone to cortisol, which is why nutrition after fitness is so important for muscle recovery. supplementary nutrition can change the body from muscle catabolism to muscle anabolism, but at this time to drink a cup of coffee, the painting style is different.

A cup of coffee in the morning refreshes the brain. Adrenaline produces cortisol, a stimulating hormone but also a catabolic hormone. Cortisol is our friend in times of stress, it can put the body in a fighting state, cortisol is a hormone that breaks down proteins as energy, and order coffee completely ok before heavy strength training, but if you choose to drink it after fitness, it may prolong the catabolic state.

Coffee is good, but don't be addicted to it.

Relying too much on the refreshing effect of coffee leads to coffee addiction and resistance. It will often make your body feel tired, your brain is in chaos, and you can't concentrate. Only consuming more caffeine can make you feel refreshed. In this case, I have to advise you to stop drinking caffeinated drinks for a while.

Coffee helps speed up fat burning, yes, but only if you consume a lot of calories (exercise), make sure you don't consume more calories than you consume, and expect to lose weight by drinking a cup of coffee? You might as well get up 30 minutes earlier and exercise a little bit more practically.

Rational drinking of coffee

A study by the University of Coventry (Coventry University) shows that almost half of Americans do not or rarely enjoy a high-quality sleep, and drinking too much coffee may be a factor.

There is an enzyme called CYP1A2 in the human body, which can metabolize caffeine, while people with high activity of CYP1A2 enzyme can metabolize caffeine quickly, so some people may have a cup of coffee at 10:00 in the evening and go to bed at 10:30, without any effect on their sleep. But some people may be restless all day after drinking a cup of coffee in the morning, and they can't sleep over and over again at night.

Even if you are a fast metabolic type, don't drink coffee in the afternoon. Drinking coffee too late can increase cortisol levels. As the sun sets, cortisol levels decline, and sunset is a sign that the body is starting to reduce cortisol production and start producing melatonin, which is essential for sleep and recovery.
