This week on Transformation Talk, Nick and Mike take a relatable topic regarding the effects of alcohol. Nick, nursing the worlds longest hangover, dives deep into the dreaded "day-after" feeling (and the rest). He shares his personal experience with dehydration, fatigue, and the struggle to muster any motivation for the gym or life.
The episode then delves into the science behind why alcohol throws a wrench in your fitness goals:
• Reduced Performance: From dehydration to sleep disruption, alcohol hinders your ability to perform at your best during workouts.
• Muscle Growth & Recovery: Alcohol can slow down muscle protein synthesis, making it harder to build muscle and recover effectively.
• Fat Storage: Alcohol adds extra calories and can lead to increased fat storage, especially around the abdomen.
But fear not, there's a silver lining! Nick and Mike offer tips for minimizing the damage and bouncing back stronger.
Plus, get ready for some laughs!
As always Nick and Mike give their quotes of the day and an example of this is set out below:
• Mike: "Moderation is key, folks. But hey, who can resist a good IPA while cheering on your team?" (Yes, Mike is still riding the Euro high (England play tonight), indulging in his love for both animals and craft beers.)
