Is green tea good in terms of bodybuilding?

[Decentguy]

i heard in a lot of articles that green tea lowers the testosterone levels. but i also heard recently that its good, the source is here: https://www.myprotein.com/thezone/training/green-tea-and-resistance-training-metabolism/?affil=awin&awc=3196_1468860678_46bccbc2d0a095394904b3278ea099fa&utm_source=AWin-156316&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=AffiliateWin . Now i know that green tea is pretty good for health but i wanna know that is it good for men, and in terms of men's bodybuilding.

Research suggests that supplementing with green tea can raise your resting metabolic rate by 3 percent. In order to get this benefit, you must have about about 3 glasses a day. If you have a BMR of 2000 or so that means 60 extra calories a day.

Having a cup of green tea after a meal can aid in digestion. Green tea has been used for thousand of years in Asia as a digestive.

Green tea can be a great addition to the fitness enthusiast's arsenal. It is no wonder there is a media blitz telling you green tea is the latest greatest supplement. But it is no more "the latest supplement" than food is. Its been around for thousands of years, and there are billions of Asians who swear by it. I personally love it.

You get good feelings you get after a couple cups of green tea. It leaves you with a peaceful feeling without compromising motivation and mental activity.

Not green tea specifically, but caffeine. Green tea has caffeine in it, and caffeine gives you better focus and more energy during workout. That's why some people drink coffee or take caffeine pills before they go to the gym.

Ya its pretty good. Neutral at least. Look at the sources that say its bad for your testosterone levels. Normally they're bs. Like injecting rats isolated catchein in a concentration they could never naturally consume and then weird stuff happens. As long as you just drink real tea you'll be fine.

I've heard it's good for losing weight, but that's about all I know about it.
