What do you guys think? Alcohol and fitness: Yes or no?

[jacoboddie]

Whenever I go out drinking I make sure to skip lunch and dinner and just mix a scoop of protein powder in each pint

[williamcutting]

I quit drinking almost two years ago. I'm getting bigger because I always feel good. Dont miss it.

[anabolicjesus]

can you make video on cannabis and bodybuilding?

[marktwain]

This is a calm, rational chat that parents should have with teenagers; your tone and content are easy to accept and your advice is excellent, as always. You are are true coach, Jeff!

[donniedarko]

I quit alcohol for 7 months to achieve fitness goals. At 44 I hit a lifetime goal of 250lbs at 10% Body fat. Alcohol was one of the major keys in achieving this goal. Doing it again right now. Quitting alcohol in June, killing my diet and getting the best physique of my life at 45 in October.

[felpshehe]

What about alcohol's ability to make you dance hard for five hours straight? Doesn't that compensate? Hahahahahaha

[chrisabdo]

I absolutely adore your content Jeff! Noone's doing what you're doing, as good as you're doing it. You've inspired me so much and have had a huge impact on my life. I wish you and Steph all the best my man! ✌

[Firmly_grasp_it]

Jeff is killing it with this content!!! Keep it going!

[JazmineGarciaTV]

I was hoping you’d do a video on this! This was super helpful and really interesting to watch. Awesome content Jeff, truly.

i drink beer with aminos between sets.

The way he holds and gestures with his hands makes me feel smarter.

[BlenGilani]

You give us exactly the answers we need based on scientific research, and most importantly is that you cut to the chase. That's why I appreciatie your channel. That summary thing at the end is great by the way. Thanks!

[svenprigann]

As controversial as this topic could get, Jeff always condenses it to the essence. I like how he doesn't flex his muscles in front of a mirror while telling us something. The way the information is presented, by adding science based literature is so much better than all of these douchebags around the internet.
Thanks Jeff👍

[kristine_cy]

The Agoge diet is probably the best diet for getting more muscle. I struggled for so long until I started following it.

[karmuppal]

post drinking food binge is my fav part of drinking LOL

[Giladbriggs]

Jeff, realise that we appreciate the awesome edits, it really helps with understanding the content and not getting bored, thanks a lot for the time you put in to these videos!

[slavvs]

Can you make a video about blood flow restriction?

[DizzzyWiz]

I appreciate the time and energy you put into this video on a subject that I don't think is covered a whole lot. A video I just found, that still holds up half a decade later!

[brandon]

Great video. People often underestimate how many calories are in alcoholic drinks. I lost a lot of fat when I stopped drinking.
