Title describes my question. Just wondering if having one or two beers reduces gains significantly. Sometimes I drink after a workout, around once a month or so. I looked this up but didn't really find anything conclusive.
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
Beer after Workout - Yay or Nay?

What happens, IN HER MIND, is that she comes to see you as WORTHLESS simply because she hasn't had to INVEST anything in you in order to get you or to keep you.
You were an interesting diversion while she had nothing else to do. But now that someone a little more valuable has come along, someone who expects her to treat him very well, she'll have no problem at all dropping you or demoting you to lowly "friendship" status.

Beer is definitely not the ideal thing to put in your body after a workout. If you do it once in a while it's not the end of the world, but personally I only want to put something in my body that will facilitate growth and recovery. Alcohol does not, in fact it inhibits protein synthesis.

I'm obviosuly not going to bring a keg with me when I hit the gym, but after a good run I might just put some Corona in my water bottle instead of gatorade

Its your body do what you want. Monitor the results and assess if it's working after a month or two.
That article mentions that beer is absorbed quickly by the body and the carbohydrates help to replenish what was lost during the workout.Upside said:
But there's a few things wrong with that.
First of all, alcohol reduces protein synthesis. If you goal is to gain muscle then it just made it harder. And you put extra stress on the liver from the excess alcohol, and the calories from alcohol.
Second, there's other drinks than beer that contain carbs. Fruit juice for example. There's also chocolate milk which contains various carbs and it's got protein too. Why not compare beer against those? Probably because the results wouldn't be in beer's favor.
If you want to drink beer then go ahead. But there's not much of a benefit, so don't think you're doing anything good for your body. You're not.
Just because a woman listens to you and acts interested in what you say doesn't mean she really is. She might just be acting polite, while silently wishing that the date would hurry up and end, or that you would go away... and never come back.
