alchohol and training

[pood]

would training full body on fridays be a good idea when im usually drunk during the night?

Well it will probably affect your body in the recovery of the previous days workout too not just on Friday. Alcohol and fitness don???t go together???.

 

[Fit Freak]

Guess it all depends on your goals....

I think I read somewhere that alcohol decreases protien synthesis for 24hrs. or 34hrs. or something like that, I'd have to check for sure.

Alcohol and fitness don't mix well but I guess if you need to drink just workout friday morning and get shitfaced saturday night.

*or just try not to drink at all. Alcohol really mess with your gains and not to mention all the empty calories.*

Everything in moderation.....said the hypocrite.
Dehydration can't be good for any physiological process.

never train drunk, you could injure yourself and/or others!

 

[firestorm]

I'm believe that you need to put your goals in perspective. If your training for a strong healthy body then getting drunk every week is counter productive. I say if your going to drink keep it in moderation if at all.

I have a beer once in awhile, but getting drunk is not exactly good for the body. Are you looking for health, or getting plastered?

I cannot even remember tha last time I got "drunk", it's been years.

I used to have one or two beers on the weekend, but now that I have gotten strict with my diet I pretty much cut that out too. Not because I think one or two beers is unhealthy, I just do not want the extra calories.

I agree, if you're serious about bodybuilding, drinking alcohol is counterproductive. Figure out which is more important to you.

Right Prince. Which is exactly why I made sure to use the word "moderation". a beer here or there won't hurt anyone. In fact they say minimal alcohol such as wine is good for the blood pressure. But getting drunk well that is like eating a whole chocolate cake as far as i'm concerned not to mention what it does to your liver over an extended period of time if your getting a load on every weekend.

Alchohol and training don't mix. Drinking one beer reduces your muscle synthesis by 25%. Four beers and 100% of your workout is gone.Best thing to do is not drink
