Tell me that was meant as a rhetorical question. How serious are you about your training, your health, your lifestyle? I think an honest answer to that will answer your own question.... -------------- Michael "Trample the weak; hurdle the dead!"

Sure, if you drink a lot and don't understand the affects it will mess anything up, but you know when it is getting out of hand and when you should slow up so just keep a handle on it and have fun while keeping a good exercise routiine.

Carivan Posts: 8,542 Joined: 2002/01/20	2003/03/16, 09:27 AM Hold on.....If you are training and dieting to lose weight, forget alcohol. It stops all fat burning in the body, and thats why I wouldn't even have one beer if I was trying to lose fat. And I love a good Heinekin. Justmy 2 cents! Why would you want to put all that work and effort into yourself , lets say today, and finish a six pack on your 3 days off? Doesn't it defeat the purpose? Qusetion for you cop? How long does alcohol take to leave your system? I heard it is 1 hr for every drink, is that fact or myth? Just wondering. -------------- Peace on earth Ivan Montreal Canada
