Acute Caffeine Intake in Young vs Older Adults
Sponsor: University of Alcala
Summary
Evidence regarding the ergogenic effects of caffeine is well-established in young adults, but evidence in older adults remains scarce, particularly during dynamic resistance exercise. Therefore, this study compared the effects of acute caffeine ingestion on upper- and lower-body muscular strength and endurance performance according to age, in young and older adults.
