i have found that everybody i know who climbs drinks copious amounts of coffee.

i know i love the stuff but is it true that most climbers drink it. i'm sure there must be a higher level of coffee consumption among climbers as opposed the rest of population.

i find that the caffeine rush does help me crank harder, i dont know about you?

and finally how do ya take ya coffee and whats your favourite brand?

You are talking to a bunch of people who sit in front of computers all day. In the research world we call that sampling bias.

In reply to mark1984: I'm getting worried about my intake- a pint a day of strong ground coffee. I love the stuff, but sometimes hate the residual tension that you get for the few hours after.

How much does everyone else drink?

I don't drink coffee much at all. (1 or 2 cups per week?)Maybe that explains why I'm a crap climber?

So that's what I have been doing wrong! I'll add it to my training cycle - never usually touch the stuff!
