Alcohol is something many of us like to indulge in once in a while, while for some it is more than that occasional few drinks. It is true that having 1 glass of wine a day has benefits such as reducing your risk of heart disease; and that drinking can also act as a social lubricant. But let’s face the truth – we all know that there are far more benefits of quitting alcohol than there are from continuing to downing shots and glasses.
Especially for athletes and active individuals, alcohol can affect your training before and after workout. Quit drinking and you can bid goodbye to the mornings you can’t wake up; you will feel more energetic even during Monday Blues.
