According to a new study from the University of Granada in Spain, a cup of coffee might be the most effective pre-workout drink you can have.

The team of researchers has found that drinking a cup of coffee half an hour before doing aerobic exercise dramatically increases the amount of fat you're burning.

The research also shows that if the exercise is done in the afternoon, the caffeine is more effective than in the morning.

It's great news for caffeine lovers, who can now get their caffeine hit before hitting the gym. And for those who don’t drink coffee, black tea can be a valid substitute with its natural caffeine content.
