  There's also the "performace enhancing drugs" which is what I saw alchemy

actually 
  used THC as a performance enhancing drug in very low dosages (they were 
  target shooters, and were trained to aim and fire between heartbeats to 
  avoid the slight twitch that accompanies every beat.  Anything that slows 
  the heartbeat improves your aim).  There's also blood doping and other 
  things I'm sure the list can help you with in the arena of performance 
  enhancing.
  
  Pretty much all of these give you an edge but can cause serious harm later

  on.
  
Meth (speed) is also a performance enhancing drug in many cases.  That's why
rodies take it.  It gives you the kind of consciousness boost that caffine
gives, but if used in controlled quantities, it won't make you jittery.  You
retain motor control.  That's why it's so popular among architecture
students.  You can draft on it unlike caffine.
