Alcohol and Bodybuilding

Alcohol and Bodybuilding dont mix! Just one beer a day can add 15lbs fat in a year! Drinking three or more beers can make you weaker and reduce endurance for up to 48hours and if you cant push your maxes, you wont gain mass. As a bodybuilder you need to know what good, strict nutrition is. When you master your nutrition and cardio and get so ripped that you have veins in your 8-pack abs, you can start relaxing the nutrition a bit. Once you get in tune with your body, you can maintain low bodyfat year in and year out without being so strict because you instantly know when you have gained a few ounces of fat and can adapt before it becomes noticeable. People dispute my answer D (15lbs fat). Drink one beer a day above your normal daily caloric intake and you will gain 15lbs of fat in a year. Of course if *all* you had to eat every day was one 150cal beer then you would die of starvation. I didnt want to make the quiz question a whole paragraph, most people understood what I was asking. Here is how I arrived at it. 365days*150cal = 54750cals. There are 3500cals in a pound of fat, that means 54750/3500=15.64 pounds of fat. Answer D. People believe what they want to believe and have come up with all kinds of screwy arguments to justify to themselves that a beer a day is fine. Typical of these arguments is "It depends on your activity level, you might not gain any weight drinking a beer a day". Well, by that logic I could also say that 10 twinkles a day wont hurt me either ...
