How much caffeine per day for you?

[TheHammer]

Typically 200mg. Unless I worked late and my autistic son decides not to sleep and keeps me up all night. Then I’m making a second ignite around the lunch digestive period. As I get older it’s no longer a case of the 3 O’clocks

Typically, I don't drink any caffeine. Primary exception is when we leave in the evening for Colorado or Wyoming to drive overnight.

In the office 5 cups per day, elk season 1 per day.

 

[Yoder]

2 cups coffee in the morning
300 mg in pre workout
1 meth rock

I go through waves of none, all the way up to 6. Average is around 1 or 2.
I've found that apples work really well to wake me up, instead of that afternoon cup of coffee.

 

[Hoofing It]

I've been drinking a 5 cup pot a day, and that's cutting back. About 400 mg. It's hard to stay awake sitting in a chair most of the day.

400-800.. I have kill cliff and fitaid on subscription services

 

[deerhunt1988]

2 cups coffee in the morning
300 mg in pre workout
1 meth rock

Is the rock a good post workout supplement?

 

[Ehunter]

1 cup in the morning. I can't have a caffeine in the afternoon or I can't sleep

 

[PaHunter86]

21cup of coffee when I wake up, 1 cup of coffee on the way to work, and then a Coke Zero at lunch.

I love coffee, but had to give it up. After tens of thousands of dollars in medical testing, turns out caffeine caused me heart palpitations. Funny, I figured it out, not the fancy testing.

What’s a bummer about caffeine is the tolerance you build up that pretty much sucks the wind out of it when you need it. Skipped it for a few weeks once and had a couple cups on the way to an iced in duck hunt.

I broke ice for the hole in a pair of neoprene waders at a full on high knee sprint. Didn’t even check up.

1 pre-work out at 4:30 am
1 mug of coffee for work at 8a
Sometimes. 2 scoops of caffeinated protein shake at 2p-3p depending on how tired I am.

Sometimes I think it's too much caffeine but I'm asleep as soon as I hit the pillow and sleep like a baby until the next day.

Wash, rinse, repeat.....

Caffine doesn't have a heavy affect on me. I've literally fell asleep within minutes of taking a 5hr energy, coffee, and energy drink (at different times).

I did cut out energy drinks and 5hr energy shots. Felt like they never did much for me. They would just make me more tired after a bit.

I've also cut out caffine alltogether from my diet for a month or so and didn't notice any difference in my sleep, eating, energy, or mood.

500-1000 which will supposedly kill you.
Pot at home, pot and half or 2 at work.
Caffeine pills and spark in the woods. W coffee if available.

 

[Yarak]

1-1.5 cups per day and maybe some iced tea
Mostly water throughout the day though

 

[HitchHiker]

2 cups should get the day started the way I want.

 

[Dwnw/theAltitudesickness]

Yikes. I am a 1 1/2 - 2 pots a day.

@Glockster26
Same- The wife and I split 2 pots per day on the weekend. Occasionally she has more than 1 cup.

 

[grfox92]

Years ago I was in a high stress management job. I was generally miserable and always tired.

My wife kept hounding me that I was drinking way too much coffee and I was going to have a heart attack. After her "nagging" me for weeks I told her I would monitor how much I was drinking.

I kept my regular routine and realized I was drinking 128 ounces, yes, 1 gallon of coffee, BEFORE NOON every single day. I didn't stop drinking coffee at noon either.

Now Im drinking about 50oz of coffee per day with the last cup usually around 1 or 2 pm.

It varies widely for me, I work 12.5 hour, 7 on/7 off shifts that rotate between days/nights every other week and a pile of OT thrown in.

Work days in the summer: 1-2 pots on day shift, 2 for sure on nights

Days off in the summer: 2-3 cups

Work days in the winter: 3-4 pots on day shift, up to 6 pots on nights

Days off in the winter: 1 pot

I worked a similar 12 hour swing from 97 to 2004, 8 years, and consumed similar amounts of coffee in those days. The number of days off were great but I do not miss it. I've had some health issues due to caffeine so only drink a fraction of that now, but I could drink it sun up to sun down.

I have a scoop of the bucked up BAMF most mornings, and an electrolyte caffeine mix. Then typically one more electrolyte caffeine packet around lunch. It’s typically about 600 mg a day. Once in a while I wonder if it’s a mistake, but it seems to be working, and is pretty tasty as well.
