How much does drinkingl alchohol affect your fitness goals? Is wine better than hard liquor? I usually drink every weekend when im out with my friends
 
I'd say it slows you down a bit - added calories and decreased metabolism are (as I recall) the two primary effects of alcohol, along with dehydration.

Plus there's the question of how much? do you just have a beer or two? Or clean out the bar?
 
My dad thinks wine is better and I think it is but he still drinks like 10 glasses a day so it's just like beer...

And all beer and wine stunts muscle groth.
 
I do that too, I hardly ever get drunk though. Means I'll have a drink or two but that's it. I don't have problems.. but it depends of course.
 
It slows the Kreb's cycle in the body, causing the muscles to repair more slowly. Sleep is a time the body also repairs muscles. So if you drink to the point where you pass out, then that might render the sleep useless. But I think the sleep will still recover the muscles just not nearly as much as if you weren't drunk.
