Is that compatible with this program? I go to the gym regularly and am only really interested in 'tightening up'. I'm a pretty lean guy that has lost a bit of muscle in my weight loss, so I'm only really interested in putting about 5-10 pounds of muscle on. Any info would be helpful.
Cheers.

I'm in university as well, I started the program for the first time about a year ago when I was drinking much more regularly. I started my second go at it about a month ago and I hardly drink at all, and the difference in results is very noticeable.
That all being said the program still worked the first time I did it but you'll definitely see better/quicker results if you cut down on your drinking. I know currently for me, when I do enjoy a drink with some buddies I usually stick with gin and water, which is a good low cal option. I think someone already mentioned it but the biggest problem with drinking is that you're much more likely to make crappy food choices while drunk. So when you do drink try to stick to a clear alcohol with a good mixer (no pop, tonic, etc) and try and use some will power and make good food choices (no wings, pizza, fast food, etc).
