Caffeine

Is caffeine good or bad? I drink about 5 cups of coffee a day and when I swim I don’t get an upset stomach or anything that some people get. I’ve been reading articles online about how caffeine increases athletic performance but is it really beneficial to drink a load of coffee and workout?

    I regularly used a cup of black coffee to get me through an evening training session. Taken about 45 mins beforehand, it would see me through the 75 min workout. Now I swim mid-morning and take my coffee afterwards to see me through the rest of the day!
