Hi. Sorry if this is the wrong forum to post this.

Research is currently being conducted at the University of Queensland School of Human Movement Studies (Brisbane, Australia) into the effects of caffeine and caffeine withdrawal on exercise performance. We are looking for trained, male athletes proficient in cycling, aged between 18-40 to participate in exercise research. Testing will consist of a short VO2max test followed by 4 trials, each comprising of 1 hour of high-intensity cycling. All testing will be conducted at UQ, St. Lucia campus. The total of five visits will be completed over the next 1-2 months (March - April). All subjects will receive personalized performance feedback including exercise thresholds (eg. VO2max and peak power output), ideal training zones (based on heart rate), and performance improvements derived from caffeine treatments. The two subjects who achieve the fastest average times over the final three trials will be awarded $150 and $100 prizes respectively. If you’re interested or would like further information, please contact me:
