    It's usually one a day, maybe a couple on weekend days.

    There are actually a number of studies that name beer as one of the top things you can drink after a workout or run. Helps the body recover. Cheers!

    I'm pretty sure alcohol dehydrates your body, which is probably the last thing you want after a workout. Would you mind providing the links to these studies?

    I drink only on friday and the weekends, so about four to five a week. I want to be a little cautious, from where I come from I see a lot of sick people from too much alcohol, it's not pretty.

    Probably 5 a week, plus or minus 2.

    I would second this, I haven't seen a single one of these "studies" that is anything more than a pseudo-science bullshit justification to continue drinking aimed at people who want to half-ass a diet.

    I agree, the last thing your metabolism wants to do when trying to recover from exercise is process alcohol.

    Most weeks 5-7. Some more, some less.

    Didn't actually bother to read that much of the thread before replying though, so I'm not sure what the other dude was saying about exercise and beer.

    At the moment, I'm at around 35-40 per week, but hey, I'm 22 and in college. I can worry about moderation once my metabolism is no longer fast as fuck. Superb rationalizations, really. :grinning:

    FIFY




    Are you done being stupid? There is no reason to change my post to create some stupid joke. Does it really bother you that I drink 2-3 beers a day? For the record I work my ass off every day and can do what the fuck I want.

    Good bye
