A member asked:
Which raises liver enzymes more, lifting weights strenuously, or drinking 2 alcoholic drinks per day? thank you
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Alcohol: Lifting weights may raise creatine kinase, not a liver enzyme. Alcohol at the amount you describe would not raise liver enzymes too much, in a male. There is likely to be small increase in alt and ggt.
