I don’t typically caffeinate fitness activities, except for races & FTP tests. If I caffeinate a workout or ride I typically rate it one level of difficulty higher in the post-workout survey than it actually felt. i.e if it felt “very hard” with caffeine it was probably going to be “max effort” without, so I rate it “max effort”.
