Summary

This study looked at whether chewing caffeinated gum (200 mg caffeine) could help female volleyball players jump higher. Ten professional players from Turkey took part, each trying both the caffeinated gum and a placebo gum on different days. The results showed that the caffeinated gum improved one type of jump (countermovement jump) but not others. This suggests caffeine gum might give a small boost in explosive power for sports like volleyball.
