Alcohol is 7 calories per gram, second only to fat. They are empty calories also, no nutrtional value at all. The rest I will let you figure out.

do a search, this has been discussed very thoroughly in the past. Also look at www.teenbodybuilding.com, there was an excellent article about alcohol and training there.
