The Effects of 3 Different Doses of Caffeine on Jumping and Throwing Performance: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Crossover Study

Abstract: Purpose: To examine the acute effects of 3 doses of caffeine on upper- and lower-body ballistic exercise performance and to explore if habitual caffeine intake affects the acute effects of caffeine ingestion on ballistic exercise performance. Methods: Twenty recreationally active male participants completed medicine-ball-throw and vertical-jump tests under 4 experimental conditions (placebo and 2, 4, and 6 mg·kg−1 of caffeine). Results: One-way repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) with subsequent pos… Show more

“…The ES magnitude of 0.15 observed in this study is very similar to the pooled ES of 0.17 reported in a recent meta-analysis of 10 studies [36]. This result, therefore, confirms that caffeine ingestion may have a relatively small performance-enhancing effect on vertical jump height [36][37][38]. The acute improvement in vertical jump height following caffeine ingestion is comparable to the improvement in jump height found as a result of 4 weeks of plyometric training [39,40].…”

“…In contrast, in one study, none of the three employed doses (i.e., 2, 4, and 6 mg/kg) were ergogenic [6]. These differences in the results are likely because the 'optimal' dose of caffeine is highly individual, as shown by studies that plot individual participant responses to varying doses of caffeine [26,27]. Therefore, while our analysis reports that caffeine is ergogenic for rowing performance (when considering average responses), the optimal dose and protocol of caffeine supplementation need to be established on a case-by-case basis.…”

“…1 These results were obtained from studies that examined the effects of caffeine on either level 1 or level 2 versions of the test. However, given the inter-individual variation in responses to caffeine ingestion, 11,33,34 future studies may consider comparing the effects of caffeine on performance in the level 1 and level 2 version of the test in the same group of participants. Based on the results of this review, sodium bicarbonate is effective for acute increases in Yo-Yo test performance.…”
