    1 or 2 cups of coffee a day will not harm you or affect you in any way.

    its a good stimulent , only think it might harm you is if you take it near bed time and you struggle to sleep.

    According to mens health magazine a cup of coffee or tea after training can actually HELP speed up your recovery time

    A little coffee is actually good for you. Just don't drink a whole pot.. Full of anti oxidants, caffein in small amounts isn't bad for you at all, is actually a good stimulant that helps transport some B vitamins.

    1 cup a day is not bad for you at all. It has antioxidants so it actually has benefits. These are usually the same people who are sucking down five soda's a day but fail to see how it's bad for them.

    Joe Calzaghe has about 10 cups of coffee just before a fight.

    People that say this and that is bad for you but can give no valid reasons, should shut the hell up

    yeah, I used to think it was bad for you, but then I read a few articles online talking about how it reduced cancer risks and what not (wasn't exactly relevant to me), then starting noticing that it was a decent thing - the caffeine is beneficial in proportionate amounts, it has a bunch of natural ingredients in it. I wouldn't put any artificial sweetener in it though. and I may be incorrect, but I thought I saw dlh drinking a cup on one of the 24/7 episodes. whatever. **** tastes great, so yeah...

    Coffee helps me get up.

    If i can get up, I can go for a run.

    Running is good for boxing.

    Coffee is therefore good for boxing.

    :rofl Every once in a while I give in to all the hype and think, you know I should really cut back on how much coffee I drink. And every time without fail I end up drinking almost twice as much.

    No chance of me giving it up. But I am trying to cut it back to 2 a day.
