WATCH VIDEO: Joe Rogan warns about alcohol
Even though drinking alcohol occasionally can be enjoyable, Rogan acknowledged that it has no long-term benefits. He said the implications would be disastrous if athletes did not prioritize recovery and health in combat sports at the highest levels.
Rogan stated, “You are probably giving your career more time by not drinking. There is a reason why people enjoy drinking, and bars are located all over the place. But in actuality, it’s f***ing awful for you. And if you can maximize your healing and vitality by abstaining from alcohol, I would encourage people to do that if you’re a professional athlete and compete in the world’s hardest sport.”
