A member asked:

Can you tell me how is my friend able to stay fit despite drinking 3-4 times a week?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Overall lifestyle: Many, maybe most, college and professional athletes are in outstanding physical condition despite using alcohol often (hopefully in moderation). Abstinence is a personal choice, not a requisite feature of a "healthy lifestyle" despite all the rhetoric.
