Soda?

[dempseyfan]

I was wondering if anyone here knows why soda is bad to drink while training? I remember back in high school freinds that wrestled where told not to drink pop. My wife gets upset because she buys pop at the store but I never drink any of it, I tell her pop is bad. However, I do not know why and look silly cause I can't tell her why it is bad for you. Is it the carbanation, sugar?

No stay away.

Empty calories
Bad Carbs
Loaded with sugar

No reason to drink it.

empty calories are foods/drinks that contain very little or no nutritional value

the only good thing about soda is it tates good, every thing else about it is bad
