Episode notes
Beer & HIIT
- Exercise, preferably high-intensity interval training (HIIT), mitigates weight gain from regular beer consumption.
- Two HIIT sessions per week may be enough to prevent fat gain, even without dietary changes.
Post-Workout Alcohol

- However, it can disrupt hormones and muscle protein synthesis, potentially hindering long-term gains.

- Moderate alcohol intake, as seen in "Blue Zones", could contribute to longevity due to various factors beyond just alcohol's direct effects.
