so is beer really bad for boxing?

Drink this for hang-over ...

i'd say it depends on the beer.. Michelob Ultra has real low calories..

but as far as what i drink, i normally drink hard alcohol.. it's basically liquid calories but calories you can burn off.. no carbs involved so as long as you can burn off the calories then i'd say it's the lesser of two evils..

i normally mix vodka with sugar free crystal light packets and put it in the blender with crushed ice.. it's fantastic

Low carb beers have gotten a shitload better lately so that is an option, also girly drinks have bugger all carbs in them and they taste good. At a certain point however the alcohol is just converted directly into fat so just watch out for that if your a binge drinker.

The main reason I hate drinking is because I get major hangovers last last for a couple of days cus I dont drink regulaly which means I cant preform or get 100% out of my training and that really pissed me off so I prefer to not drink.

I agree, I share the same experience as you . I'd stay clear of alcohol when training.

Exactly, I've cut down but probably will have to cold turkey for some time before competing. I feel after a drinking session, my training for the next two days is just to get me back up to the level I was before, so I feel I basically lose half a week when training and drinking, 3 steps forward then 2 back.

I drank at 17 - 18.
Really bad idea.
Haven't drank since and won't either.

I don't drink although I don't mind Alcopops once in a while. I tried Vodka and Coke on holiday last week and that is fuckin disgusting
