Alcohol is literally the worst thing you can do to yourself and your gains besides plain suicide.
Moderate consumption has a negligible affect on gains and actually deters a lot of health issues. Cry more Mussie cunt.
>>34956554
>actually deters a lot of health issues
studies on that are rather sketchy
>>34956545
woops, sorry gains
am off out
>literally the worst thing for gains
No, it literally is not
Injecting estrogen would be worse
Gettings AIDS would be worse
Spraining your fuckin ankle would be worse for gains than havin a few beers
And finally. Should everything in your life be focused on increasing gains? Is it your sole purpose, to have 100% optimal natty gains?
Are you an olympic athlete in the 1950s or some shit u fukkin idiot cunt

If partaking in an activity that has the effect of destroying your body is the only way you know to socialize then you've got a problem.
>>34956545
You realize you can just accept a beer and not drink it right? If you're at a party, literally no one actually checks if you're drinking or not as long as you're lively and holding a beverage.
I have a beer or two a night and haven't noticed any negative effects from it. Didn't notice any positive effects from stopping for awhile either.
A few beers, as long as it's not during your recovery period, won't do anything except add empty calories.
You obviously never heard of speed or xtc
>>34957186
How's your motivation though? Do you go to the gym all the days you're supposed to?
Alcohol raises triglycerides in the blood, making you more prone to getting fat. Also heart disease.
Its not really worth it f am.

Yes. Also going to school full time and working

I drink spirits 4-5 days out of the week. I still wake up every single day to go to the gym at 6am.
Do I have a problem?
Sue me
Is it hurting my gains?
Probably but I'm content with my progression as of late.

goddamn this shit is delicious.
too bad all these weak-willed sissyfaggots don't know how to stop drinking after you have had a few.
or how to source your carbs primarily from beer (just add meat and vegetation)

It is just a bunch of sugar, but for those that can moderate and afford the calories then it's whatever

>>34957887
This teebeeaetche
>>34958329
SPOILER ALERT: alcoholics anonymous is a sham that doesn't cure addiction, and it was founded from two dudes, one of them tripped so hard on LSD he thought he met god, and that is why he created AA
just take hallucinogens.
they are more effective against addiction than coffee and cigarettes.
hell, iboga is arguably the most effective agent at fighting physical addiction (it has a really impressive record against heroin and meth addiction)
not so sound like a hippie spouting "just smoke dmt, broseph, shit's totally good for you, i swear"

OT: Alcohol is fine in moderation. However, it's easy for some people to slip into a regular habit. Take a month off if this happens to you.

Yeah, nah. I don't drink. The problem is that I find institutions based around being sober so intolerable. The self-righteous are so frustrating for me. I don't fit in anymore.
>>34956545
I think not lifting is the worst thing you can do for your gains.
Also the negative effects of alcohol doesn't show up until like twelve drinks a day, daily. By that point you have bigger problems then your gains being affected.
>>34958470
I've never got how a habit is a bad thing if you still drink in moderation.
>>34958622
>Also the negative effects of alcohol doesn't show up until like twelve drinks a day, daily.
>Being this wrong
>>34958658
I'm too lazy to find the study on it, but that's what I recall it saying. Feel free to prove me wrong though. Not gonna stop drinking regardless.
>>34957309
>mfw lifts go down 10-20lbs after taking xtc at a rave
Definitely worth it.
>>34958676
Yeah I've read similar studies. The worst thing that happens when you drink alcohol is all the junk food people tend to stuff. Like coming home from a bar and binge eating something that feels delicious at that point. If I remember correctly, having more than 12 beers will lower your testosterone for the next day
>>34958747
Yeah, I'd argue the drunk binging and next day apathy is worse than the alcohol itself most of the time, especially on a cut (Assuming you're drinking less than twelve drinks of course). I've found popcorn is the best drinking snack though. It's only like 350 calories for a big bag and it's fatty salty deliciousness that you want when you're drunk, rather than eating like 1500 calories of junk food.
>>34957309
Train for a rave -> take xtc -> lose gains -> repeat
>>34958818
why would you lose gains there? never happened for me, just smoke and eat after.
>>34958265
Been doing this for a year. No carbs except on the days I don't drink a few beers and with that, only complex carbs.
>>34956554
Define moderate?
Is a pint or two of spirits once a month okay?
>literally
Use it incorrectly some more why don't you

Alcohol doesn't make much difference unless you're full on alkie
>>34959781
It probably won't hurt your gains much at all in the long run providing that you don't die
I live in Northern Europe and it's pretty usual to drink a beer with dinner a few times a week. Will this affect my gains?
>>34956626
Suicide is better than crossfit
>>34957645
>the person who poster this pronounces OHP as "The Press"
I literally develop a condition if I drink more than 1 or 2 beers a week.
I get horrible sleep paralysis, being sleep paralysis within a dream, general night terrors, physical pains like aliens or demons are poking or drilling my ribs or testicles while I'm in sleep paralysis. Just last night I went through at least 8 rounds of my balls being squeezed up and pulled until my mind believed my right testicle kept being ripped off and rolling on my stomach outside my ballsack.
That on top of alcohol giving cancer, weakening immune system to get colds, general grogginess, having trouble sleeping at night but falling asleep in morning, fucking up my physical progress, and making me hungry all the time while drunk.
Is good enough reason to keep the alcohol in the garbage bin.
It's only hallucinatory drugs and maoi inhibitors for me.
>Summer is coming
>Perfect weather to lie in my sun chair out back basking in the sun with a beer in hand
>Cutting
Maybe if I get back to a size 32 waist and am still lean I'll let myself have a beer or two maybe once or twice a week.
So hard for me to moderate my drinking though so I tend to just try and avoid it completely unless I'm in social situations. Because I have no close friends I very rarely get into situations where I need to drink.

>Dying from two pints of Crown
How much do you usually drink?
/fit/ faggot struggling with alcoholism reporting in
Alcohol is indeed terrible for you.
You will never achieve your true potential if you drink.
>>34956545
studies show that a glass of red wine a day is good for the heart and for antioxidants. 1 beer a day is good for fibre and memory.
Actually Icecream is probably the worst thing you can do to yourself.
Wrong use of literally.

>>34961154
Lmao what bollocks. Yeah there's tonnes of studies that say a lot of things. It's about the quality of the research done, who is funding it etc.
Do you just read the headlines or abstracts or something?
Probably get your info from HuffPo
>>34963956
You should learn more about the scientific method.
If you notice in most fields there's research studies that are often completely contradictory. Just because it's in a study it doesn't mean shit. Needs to be independent research done and longitudinal research too.
Common sense prevails in most circumstances.
>>34957174
But if you're not lively watch the fuck out bc someone will check hard familam (-;

Moderate drinking is fine. Wine is fine. Spirits are fine. Sugary cocktails are not fine, but that's another story.
