Acute caffeine intake improves muscular strength, power, and endurance performance, reversing the time-of-day effect regardless of muscle activation level in resistance-trained males: a randomized controlled trial
Acute caffeine intake enhances muscular strength/power at moderate-to-high loads (75%- 90%1RM) and endurance performance (65%1RM) in the back squat while counteracting morning declines at light-load (25%1RM) for both exercises without altering muscle electrical activity.
