It’s Friday the weather’s warm and you’re fresh out of work
or the gym and ready to enjoy a couple drinks to celebrate your weekend. But how do you do this without completely
undermining all your progress at the gym?
I mean that beach body isn’t making itself, right? So what’s a guy to do if he wants to work out
during the week but enjoy a tasty beverage during on the weekend? Below are some drinks that can help you
unwind without packing on the pounds.
Guinness
If you love beer, think about drinking Guinness, since it’s a stout
its heavier than normal beers and more filling.
However it only has 128 calories per 12 ounces. In addition to this a University of Wisconsin
study says that it can also help to reduce blood clots.

Anything on the Rocks
As men we really don’t need mixers anyway, especially if you’re
trying to keep off the belly fat, since many times mixers have a lot of
calories. If you really do have an issue
with the taste of liquor on ice you could always try some flavor infused
varieties.

Fizzy Lemonade
Mix tequila, vodka, and diet lime-lemon (its lower in
calories plus some people say that full calorie lemon lime soda is too sweet),
to get a healthy and refreshing cocktail, that wound add on the pounds.

Vodka and Soda with Lime
Probably my personal favorite because I love having club
soda with lime, if I’m not going to drink that night. This drink is great for when you desire
something a little lighter than shots of hard liquor. Just take some vodka, some club soda, ice,
and a lime slice and boom! You have a light refreshing low calorie drink ready
to go.

Whiskey and Green Tea
A great drink for cool nights, this drink has all kinds of
additional health benefits like boosting your health, like lowering your
cholesterol level and boosting your immune systems defenses.

White and Red Wine
I’m not really a wine fan personally, but if you are these
two kinds of wine are great. Wine is low in calories and when consumed in
moderation can provide numerous health benefits. Red wine is an antioxidant and can help
protect you from cancer. White wine has
fewer carbs per serving than red, 2g per 5 oz serving rather than 4g like red
wine, so either way you are drinking healthy.

Light Beer
Not the healthiest option but still better than its full
bodied alternative, these beers should be consumed in moderation. Today light beer is incredibly low calorie
with some beers having well under 100 calories.

Whatever you choose remember moderation is key, there is no
point in drinking healthy if you are going to overdo it and undermine all your
hard work. Cheers.
