Booze and the effects on training

[MN5]

Hahaha, no issue with me, I get evils from Mum if I have a second drink......the old man is another story ( as long as she isn't around )

Strange thing: ran a 5km PB the morning after a few very large rums with the old man while on holiday. One of those things where the weather was perfect, the track fairly flat, and the attitude was just "oh well, just do that mofo!"

Some good reading on leangains.com about the effects of alcohol on fat loss and general training etc. Worth a read [url="http://www.leangains.com/2010/07/truth-about-alcohol-fat-loss-and-muscle.html"]http://www.leangains...and-muscle.html[/url]

Good read there JK, just got a new job so allowed myself a couple of celebratory rums on thursday and having a nice reisling as we speak but on the whole will be keeping up with the cutting down.

had my first beer in the past 7 days (8 days ago I had my uncles 60th, so had probably 4 or 5 Pures, and about 4 or 5 Beam and Cola (not RTD) felt fine the next day, had it while cooking up a nice steak on the BBQ tonight though...bought a dozen Stoke Amber 3 weeks ago, there are 6 left, and Mrs TR has had 3.

Wife out so having a few jokers round, all of them have to drive, I obviously don't so will have a few but not too many tonight.

Had 1 low carb beer whilst driving the bbq last night and that was it. Am sure to knock a few back after my holes of golf on Friday though!

Mate came over and brought beer, so I broke my promise and had two of Aldi's offerings. Not bad actually
