How much caffeine do you take a day?

Tradie energy drink 160-240 2-3 times a week.

Pre-workout 3-4 times a week at 250.

I probably average about 200 a day.

Funny this thread came up. I think I'm a pretty stim tolerant person (i've taken all the OG DMAA pre's, XTC, Blow, etc...) And while these things do get me amped up, I can also go right to bed at will even while doing such things.

So I currently only get about:
Currently ~100-150 depending how large of a coffee I serve myself in the morning. But I just bought a stim-free pre workout to give it a try. Might aswell save on the stims for the ol' ticker since they don't do much for me. I will report back on if its complete trash.

I did 0mg for about a year. Had no issues sleeping, always woke up at the same time, lifting was good. Couldn't stay out late on the weekends without feeling tired as **** the next day.

Now doing 250mg/day via black tea. Feels like I'm less tired at night and more tired in the morning, lifting is still good. Can stay out late and get to bed at a normal time on sundays.

If I was married with kids I'd probably go no caffeine and just take modafinil when I need a boost.

I use to drink brewed coffee by the pot, but now I drink 2-3 cups of Earl Grey tea, occasionally a cup of coffee. I'm not counting those.

My pre-workout is maybe an energy drink I buy at the gym if I feel like it and 25mg of E (Prematine/Bronkaide) and 400mg of caffeine.

Jesus some of you guys need to dial it back. I have an espresso every morning which is about 80mgs, maybe once a week I’ll have a red bull in addition to that if I’m getting pumped for a workout, so max would be 120mg in a day.

you can develop a tolerance to caffeine so you should cycle it.

I don't have any per day but I have recently started consuming large doses of cocoa with good results. Would recommend

1-2 cups of coffee, so probably like 2-300mg. Trying to cut it out, makes me anxious and fuks my sleep up though.

1.5-2g per day

4 energy drinks is 1200mg and 2 scoops of preworkout is another 800mg

Sleep the moment my head hits the pillow.
