Alcohol around Training and Life - Part 2 - with Anthony Di Paolo Toeing The Line

Back this week with Part 2 of ‘Alcohol around life and training’. This weeks episode has far more information than last weeks episode. I go into a range of reasons that consuming alcohol around training is not the best for us. I also finish off the episode with a good ol fashion ramble about all the things that run through my mind on a regular basis. The episode goes a bit like this:
