Did you know men tend to drink alcohol more often than women? They are also more likely to binge drink. Even before alcohol causes long-term health problems, it can hurt your workouts, lower your energy, disrupt your sleep, and slow down your recovery.

Drinking less plays a big role in living a healthier life. It can help you avoid injuries and accidents now, as well as lower your risk for heart disease and certain cancers later in life.
