Abstract
Muscle hypertrophy provides the improvement of physical aptitudes, health conditions, physical conditioning and longevity. Furthermore, alcohol consumption is a common practice in society, becoming an obstacle when individuals seek weight loss, improvement of physical or aesthetic condition. This is because alcohol consumption impairs muscle gain, as its intake breaks the balance, thus affecting homeostasis. In this context, the work aimed at alcohol consumption and vulnerabilities to hypertrophy in non-athletes. The study is a theoretical reflection of a qualitative approach, on the effects of the consumption of alcoholic beverages in the process of hypertrophy of the skeletal muscles of the human body. However, changes in habits favor the increase of lean mass, and many people who have their goals restrained by the use of alcohol seek in anabolic steroids the income that was lost in diet, metabolism or in the indisposition to practice caused by excess alcohol. Finally, moderate alcohol consumption is not an impediment to hypertrophy in non-athletes, and its use is highly prevalent in physically active individuals.
