does soda destroy your figure? like will it dramatically hinder muscle development? i drank some pepsie today and yesterday, not alot though. but everytime i drink it i feel fat, and start working out vigorously. is this necessary? is soda really that lethal to your muscles?
cola is harmful to your bones i believe... i dont know about muscles. and obviously you should avoid carbonated drinks a lot before working out so you're not full of gas :P

I found this in Wikipedia.
"...determined that the net effect of carbonated soft drinks on calcium retention was negligible. He concluded that is likely that colas prominence in observational studies is due to their prominence in the marketplace, and that the real issue is that people who drink a lot of soft drinks also tend to have an overall diet that is low in calcium."

Yeah, it's what you're NOT eating and drinking as a result of consuming that soda. If you aren't drinking milk and water, and soda fills you up and prevents you from eating better stuff it is a problem.
to be honest, if you lift heavy weights you can almost eat whatever you want without much issue. if you aren't a power lifter however, soda isn't going to destroy you, but as people have stated soda is empty calories, and furthermore you should try not to get many calories from liquid anyhow. they are the least filling and the primary function of drinking should always be hydration.
a soda or two a week won't kill you, but drink one everyday and you will have to work that much harder to get the results you want.

I don't think so, I drink Coke everyday as well as lift weights and it hasn't affected me. Then again I have really high metabolism so pop goes right through me.
