What the article says is mostly true, I can't find anything wrong with it. However, it should have been named differently, it should have been named "Overeating after exercise will negate any advantage of working out".

And on that note, Moderate drinkers evidently exercise more than non-drinkers Question is: Were they lying in response to the gov. health survey? Just because you say you hit the gym or whatever, does not make it a fact. These "studies" all fail.

Moderate drinkers probably includes a huge segment of the mid-twenties who socialize heavily at bars and clubs. I see plenty of "bros" and people who are in shape in those venues. They certainly don't drink their way into muscle bound frames and thin bodies.
