| Abstract | Alcohol impairs your ability to regulate body temperature and acts as a diuretic, leading to dehydration. In combination with the effects listed below, research has shown that “binge” drinking alcohol can decrease performance by as much as 11.4% the day after drinking. The negative effects of alcohol consumption on performance can last for up to 72 hours! • In the brain, it impairs motor skills like balance, coordination, and reaction time. • In muscle, it impairs blood flow, reducing muscle strength. The prevalence of musculoskeletal injury is 30% higher in athletes who drink versus those who do not. • In the liver, all processes shut down to prioritize alcohol metabolism. This causes low blood sugar and impairs the use of fat as fuel, inhibiting positive training adaptations. • In the heart, it disturbs cardiovascular function (especially during a hangover), How much is too much? • Women: >2 drinks per day • Men: >3 drinks per day • Excessive or “binge” drinking = >2 drinks in 2 hrs There is NO BENEFICIAL EFFECT of alcohol on sport performance. It is best to avoid alcohol within 48 hours of training or competition. |
