Can even moderate drinking be holding you back from your best performances?
In today’s episode, we’ll explore the effects of alcohol on your training. We’ll go over:
- How even small amounts of alcohol affects your sleep and recovery
- How it’s related to inflammation, dehydration, and performance loss, and ironically
- Why the popular trend of Dry January might not be as helpful as it seems.
This episode is not about judging those who choose to responsibly enjoy alcohol in moderation. Instead, it’s about truly understanding your choices and how they affect your life, health, and your running.
