Coffee

I would be a sugar junkie if I allowed it. But like an alcoholic recovered I must be aware not to fall back into bad habits. I fast once every six weeks now. It is good for me. I do drink a coffee and tea a few times a week.

As a pre workouts preparation I used to watch motivation workouts before the I went to the gym just to get that feeling but nowadays It’s enough for me to drink a coffee and head to the gym my motivation levels are really high because I’ve never been passion about the gym as I am today and I make sure I eat a proper meal before heading to the gym (at least an 1 hour before).

Black coffee helps a lot when handling hunger.

I like to combine bodybuilding and powerlifting into my training, and I feel it works best for me. My favorite outside the gym hack is to drink coffee or green tea to help hunger. Also, investing money on a good lifting belt and hand straps is a great thing that will help you for years!

As far as cheat days go, off season has 2-3 days and in season has 1 day (I won’t be cheating the entire day, it will be one treat, it does not last the entire day). I do not drink coffee however I will drink wine once in a blue moon (special occasion, really rough week and will only have 1-2 glasses max).

I buy good quality meat and veggies, I cook the majority of my meals at home (ex chef) with an omelette and coffee as a go to for breaky. I play with intermittent fasting on occasion too.

I don’t drink coffee and not a fan of alcohol so it makes it easy for me at social events as it doesn’t affect me in any way.

I have one or a couple of cups of coffee in the morning and then tea and water for rest of day and night, with the occasional hot milo at night. But otherwise I try to limit caffeine intake as much as possible for sleep, health and weight reasons.

With regards tea/coffee. I drink both but taking a week off caffeine every now and again is something I do.

I just follow a simple intuitive eating healthy lifestyle! I try to not deprive myself so I can avoid binging and that’s helped me a lot. I drink my coffee and tea black because I’d rather have my sugar come from dessert.

I suppress my cravings simply by drinking tea or coffee. I also picked up intermittent fasting over the last year, which I do anywhere from 12-18 hrs. most days.

I have a very addictive personality and try to limit my coffee intake. I stopped drinking alcohol about eight years ago. I still go out, dance and have a good time though! I drink way too much tea… can’t have scones without tea.

In the way of coffee, tea, and alcohol, I drink one cup of coffee every morning, herbal caffeinated tea in the evenings sometimes, and alcohol on occasion with friends. I believe that life should be lived and enjoyed as opposed to living in restriction and starvation mode.

You can eat the foods you love, drink the coffee you want and make progress. And if you feel the need to have a cheat meal on your diet, you’re on the wrong diet. Just like if you feel the need to cheat on your partner in a relationship, you’re in the wrong relationship. Get out of it, mate!

I drink a lot of coffee and tea. I used to drink energy drinks but I stopped that when I first got pregnant and never got back into it. I drink alcohol every now and then but not regularly.

The first thing I do after getting up is have a hot lemon water and head to the gym. (I don’t use a pre-workout, I don’t like the crash they give you), instead I have a black coffee on the way to gym.

I drink plenty of water throughout the day and I eat fruit daily after lunch or dinner. Most of my meals consist of rice or noodles with vegetables and meat particularly chicken and beef. I don’t take supplements. I don’t drink coffee. I seldom drink alcohol.

I don’t drink tea and alcohol only occasionally during lunch/dinner with friends (red wine and rhum are my favourites). Coffee is one of the only two supplements that really works (the other one is the creatine monohydrate) so when I workout a lot I have coffee to boost my energy.

I do love coffee once or twice a day and I love tea as well. I don’t drink alcohol very often.

After a few hours, 40 mins before my training, I have my sugarless black coffee. I don’t believe in taking additional supplements at all, I think, our kitchen and gym have everything we need to grow organically.

I usually take a cup of coffee and some fruit before training and I sit outside for a while to breathe, recover, and drink a lot of water after training.

I don’t drink coffee. Not my thing, prefer more tea, like green tea and I am straight edge, I don’t drink alcohol. I avoid junk food as much as possible.

I drink coffee with oat milk and I also have herbal teas. I enjoy a glass or two of wine about once a week.

After that, I grab a cup of coffee and sit down to read my Bible. I like to have my quiet time with my Savior in the morning before the hustle and bustle of the day begins. After I read, I journal for 10 minutes. This ensures I have a grateful attitude for my day and allows me to reminisce on how far I’ve come.

I have a cup of coffee every morning to start my day. I also use MyFitnessPal to track all my food, even when they are the same thing everyday.

I do drink coffee, tea, alcohol but all of it in moderation.

Of course, I do have food cravings!! I am obsessed with chocolate!!! (and coffee) I allow myself quality chocolate for dessert from time to time.

I do not drink alcohol but sometimes I take a cup of coffee before I set off for the gym.

I do not drink coffee or alcohol. I tend to drink natural teas in the evening.

Caffeine is definitely an addiction for me. I take it more religiously when cutting to help bring my heart rate up faster during cardio but I have coffee year-round because I like the taste, and energy. Prep coffee is black, regular everyday coffee is with 1 milk.

I love coffee and have it as a staple in my day.

If I do ever order something out or if I feel like working at a coffee shop, it’s a matcha latte. However, most of these items I very rarely have.

I really like coffee and tea, but drink them no more than twice a day as a healthy habit.

I barely drink alcohol but I do like my coffee and other hot beverages especially before training. They give me the type of jolt I need to really push myself.

Sometimes I feel low for my workouts, but I still go when they’re scheduled. But maybe the intensity will be lower, but it’s still better than not sticking to my schedule. I have a black coffee first and then I’m off.

So right now I’m pretty structured. Oats for breakfast, a large coffee (I adore caffeine), meat and veggies around lunch sometimes with rice, arvo sweet like a protein shake or bar and a cup of chai tea and then meat and veg with some fats like avocado for dinner. Once a week I’ll eat out or get takeaway.

I supplement with Switch Nutrition Power Switch before a workout and use their Amino Switch during and then their Adrenal Switch post training. I also supplement with the Thermal Switch in replace of a black coffee on some days.

I drunk lots of black coffee – it’s what kept me going lol – I did not drink alcohol when prepping and throughout my bodybuilding career. Now, I will have the odd drink. Black coffee and green tea were staples of my Figure competing life – and I still enjoy them.

I drink gingertea with honey. No alcohol as it does not support my job, and no coffee as I never got into it somehow.

I am huge on fish oil, as well as a mineral blend pill. I also drink a huge cup of coffee in the mornings and green tea at night, every night.

As I am quite energetic, I enjoy black coffee (three maximum cups for the day) and then just water.

I love coffee, but I try and limit myself and always make sure I’m drinking plenty of water to stay hydrated.

I like to start my day of with a cup of coffee before I do my cardio then I’ll have another one in the afternoon. I’m also a big green tea drinker so I like to have a cup after a meal.

Protocol10 MSM & Glucosamine Fish oil Power BI like to eat well but I never miss the sweets. I don’t like to drink coffee and I rarely drink alcohol.

As for coffee/tea or alcohol, yes, I believe life is all about balance and self control.

I don’t do cheat days, I pretty much eat the same thing everyday— coffee and oatmeal in the morning, eggs veggies and rice for lunch and dinner, plus a couple of quarantine snacks in the afternoon (chocolate, fruit, cake, whatever is available).

30 min before training I have black coffee and a protein shake with micro dosed creatine. I use Humapro as my vegan protein of choice as well as con-crēte for my M-F micro dose of creatine.

I am not a fan of coffee and alcohol, I do take it once in the while when I am with friends and I take enough, but not too much which will stop me to practice the next day.

The past few years I have started to drink coffee. I never really liked it much but nowadays it’s such a nice morning ritual or an activity to share with friends.

My biggest vice is probably caffeine. I’m waiting for my Red Bull sponsorship as I’ve probably single handedly paid for the CEO’s vacation every year. I’m also at the point of having iced coffee in an IV drip just to save time.
