No serving United States service member has ever smoked marijuana or experimented with other drugs either, of course. As if recruitment officers aren't really just put in place to help you lie through your application process the true American way.

Like the fatass slob of a recruitment officer that told me when he started gaining weight post-BMT's he'd just down a ton of coffee to pass the cardio portion of his physical checkup tests when all they did was measure heart rate on a bike or some shit.

caffeine intake illicits a norepinephrine/epinephrine release, resulting in dilation of blood vessels predominately in the lungs (allowing in a higher efficiency in respiration) and the brain (resulting in higher alertness). The presence of those 2 hormones also releases higher levels of adrenaline into the bloodstream, reducing fatigue felt from long term physical activities. Read a book sometimes, geez.

I find it extremely hard to believe he could do some level of activity with coffee that he could not without it.

You're too busy attempting to keep up this veneer of intellectual superiority to actually read what other people have typed. Explanation was already in my OP.

Maybe the coffee made him have to poop so he peddled faster. Like a metaphorical carrot tied to a stick.
