Gaining

Beer aided gain.

Now this I didn't know. But there's no coincidence they call it a 'beer belly'.

Alcohol has long been my #1 WG tip for three reasons:

a) it's fattening in and of itself - about 200 calories a pint
smiley when you're out drinking you tend to snack, and pubs usually only stock fatty stuff, like crisps/chips, nuts, pretzels
c) coming home after a decent session the late-night kebab vans and greasy pizza shops suddenly look tempting rather than revolting
