Posted by Stephen Johnson on December 6, 2005, 7:15 am, in reply to "red bull" According to this: That amount of caffeine is overkill, IMHO. Red Bull contains 80 mg of caffeine, so a 160 lb person would have to drink 4 Red Bulls

Anyone know how long before a power/speed event should i drink red bulls for help in performance ? To maximize the benefits of caffeine, an athlete should consume 3-6 mg of caffeine per kilogram of body weight (roughly 2 mg/lb. of body weight) about one hour prior to exercise. For example, a 120-lb. person should consume roughly one to two cups (8 oz.) of drip-percolated coffee. A 175-lb. person would need to drink two to four cups
