[QUOTE="Toddm, post: 1654544, member: 19522"] From various sources/coaches growing up in competitive shooting do what your body is used to. If it's used to 2 cups of coffee do that, if it's used to no coffee do that. You're body acclimates to stimulants, more or less than your body is used to will have negative effects. Try to not drink any caffeine in the morning and you'll be shakey by lunch, drink a couple red bulls when you don't normally you'll have the same problem. That said ideally as a shooting competitor you're better off avoiding stimulants, but you can't do it the day of or day before a match. It has to be all the time. There have been a lot of shooting competitors get in trouble for taking depressants/sleeping aids etc. To take the "edge" off shooting, even more for using alcohol for the same reason. [/QUOTE]
