I drink coffee after I go for a run, gives me a little boost on top of the endorphins for the following hour or two.

immediately, under 15mins to lifting if you can.
Coffee works fast, preworkout slower.

cofees gonna make you shit and id rather shit at home then at the gym, so at least like 15 minutes before to get that shit out.

>How long before the workout should I drink it ?
No longer than 30 minutes.

caffeine generally takes 45 minutes for it to be absorbed by your system. start drinking it before you leave, and finish it on your way to the gym.

My pre workout routine

>pick up 12z coffee on the way home from work
>1 scoop with creatine as soon as I walk in
>sip coffee and browse /fit/ on my phone while shitting
>finish coffee during the ride to the gym

By the time I'm done warming up, I feel the full effect of the caffeine. Lines up perfectly with PR attempts during intensity sets.

>daily reminder if you drink coffee your wasting your money on creatine

Coffee flushes outany water the creatine trys to store making it completely useless

Coffee is only a mild diuretic though
Won't really impact you much if you're only drinking ~1 cup
