If you drink 3+ cans a day* for some time, maybe..? I sometimes get a feeling like that, but I don't consume a lot of caffeine. I think it's mostly either tense muscles or cramps in the upper body, which probably affect gamers about as much as energy

* May be less for especially sensitive or small people

I used to get them. I have a light build and used pre-workout and creatine to boost my productivity on a 12 hour shift in the bullshit factory.

pretty sure it's not heart palpitations or else I would have been dead. I'm not a doctor but after enough times it kind of seems like they're a muscle convulsion
