Can you drink alcohol, and still maintain a high level of athletic performance?

Let's face it. For most Australians, we have sports from a very young age played. Many of us continue to play competitive sports for our whole life long. Obviously, most athletes have a peak age reach for competition, which is in men over thirty and in women about 33.
I myself am an athlete. I compete in mixed martial arts, one the most physically there are taxation and how that most agree, brutal sport. And let me tell you, there is nothing worse than trying to fight a training or striking after an all-night Bender to the full!
An other simple truth is that Australian, we are very social. And we want to drink. I could not give a person who I know at home, which will spoil in a drink, on a Friday or Saturday night with their friends over a meal, including me! But my opinion on alcohol and training are easy; Alcohol affects every aspect of your training. It affects your ability to recover, it affects your ability to think and coordinating body and mind, it affects on your liver and your digestive systems, it affects the ability of the body, fats and proteins break down, and for those like me, the sports involved, where weight and weight loss are very important, it your ability, Can affect weight to lose.
Without indulging in scientific evidence, outweighs the evidence against alcohol and sports performance advantage. Research indicates that a glass to drink or two, or red wine, every few nights can help lower blood pressure, but for those of us who are the athletes, strict diet is also important, so blood pressure (unless that athlete has an already existing State) never should be an issue.
Training for professional sports, one is to the best ways to learn about this topic, people listen to and collect from those with experience. Here are a few quotes from people, training and as professionals to compete.
Rob Hill (Australia) Pro MMA fighter - "Alcohol, as anything in moderation can be done." For those who are in the competition, regardless of any sport there is your fitness, but slow down your progress and your recovery. There is nothing that you so badly, achieve such as alcohol if you are injured or ill, and no one wants the. Alcohol also affects your immune system and nervous system, which makes it more difficult to recover between sessions and means that you can be more susceptible to getting sick. "Steer clear for at least a few months ago and events, and enjoy an or two for a reward after a battle or an event."
Robert Bondy (England)-professional Boxer-"No. go, whatever." If you whether there is a 6 or 8 week camp for a fight-camp, training, is also no matter no alcohol for a training camp. Most people grow up able to drink and in a position between their camps, and that is acceptable, how significant is that a person to mentally relax and not spend time with their friends and family and it, a burden. But for a training camp, no alcohol. "It is just too many things that you can battle costs are."
Silviu CF (Romania)-MMA-coach, former Red Devil fight team member, former Romanian boxing coach - "it's not too bad, a glass of alcohol or beer have after training, as long as it is with food or dinner, how it can help to relax the body after training." A glass of wine is best. "But before an event for 6 weeks, no alcohol."
Rafael Lopes 'Negao' (Brazil) MMA fighter, Muay Thai fighter, BJJ Brown belt and coach - "man, you can not drink." If I drink and train for a fight, I never feel as I restore. If I drink beer, vodka or spirit distinguishes beer is still bad, but I feel very bad, if I drink vodka. "If I fight, not I drink, sure!"
Boyd "Gypsy" Clark (Australia) Muay Thai, boxing - "If you had for some reason, not an alcoholic beverage would influence really training." If your fight-camp for six weeks has been set, I would like to think, all alcohol, more than a drink would that do not drink if you absolutely had to. "More than anything else, it would impede your recovery so that you never would be able to 100% in your exercises constraint date."
Their they have from it, active fighters and coaches with much experience. Common opinion is that alcohol consumption will while preparing for any kind of competition is your performance, hampered by reducing your ability to recover, the nervous system slows down and 100% who want what every athlete to make the top of their sport is to train your ability!
