Is drinking beer and smoking cigarettes everyday bad for gains?

Why ask? You already know the answer.

Next time go to the QTDDTOT thread.

Depends how much beer and cigarettes
>>
>>35476020
I drink about 12 beer a day and a pack of cigarettes
>>
>>35476033
that's better for your gains than drinking a beer a day and 12 packs of cigarettes.
>>
>>35476033
Definitely fucking up your gains m8

>12 beer a day
what the fuck?

I though I was bad for drinking 5-6 beers every Friday night. You're doing yourself some serious damage.

lolling at your life m8

>>35476082
I know people who drink twice as much as me on a daily basis
>>
>>35476114
24 beers? As in pints? Mate, my dad drinks about 10 a day and looks like absolute shit. It will catch up with you.

>5-6 beers
>thinks that even counts as drinking
>>
>>35476114
you know alcohol is an addictive substance right?
>>
>>35476129
Yeah my neighbor drinks a case of beer every single day he drinks Moosehead
>>
>>35476137
I'm a bong.

I am also on a cut and the smallest amount makes me tipsy.
>>
>>35476140
Obviously it's fun
>>
>>35475994
>everyday
yes
beer is a sometimes treat
cigarettes is a not even once you clod
>>
>>35476164
...as in you develop a dependence to the point where you're in agony if you don't have the substance in your system. you also require more and more to feel the effects. which is why drinking 12 beers a day is bad.
>>
>>35476137
This is a damaging mentality. Drinking should be a pleasure, not a challenge. This type of thought is true degeneracy, not the shit that /pol/ moans about.
>>
How about a bottle or two of good whisky a week, no cigarettes?

Serious question, starting out - been doing SL for a few months and making the planned linear gains, when will it cause me trouble.
>>
>>35476137
C'mon man we are all on the same team. 5-6 beers a day are gains goblins. Don't be a douche
>>
>>35476213
Why not drink everyday if it's pleasurable?
>>
>>35476033
>drinking 1400 cals of piss a day

$5 says you look like a melted marshmallow when naked. post physique pic plz
>>
>>35476216
Never i guess really its pretty less
The body can handle this pretty easy if youre healthy
>>
>>35476191
People wouldn't drink everyday if they didn't enjoy the relaxing effects
>>
>>35476246
It is unhealthy. It is harder to stay slim and it will cause you severe health issues when you get older. Do what you want, but try to think of the long term.
>>
>>35476272
no shit, but you should be able to function and relax without it. are you that ignorant about the science of addiction?
>>
>>35476246
most can't afford to drink everyday
>>
>>35476137
"Wow dude Americans"

I bet ya feel cooler now in front of your internet friends.

>tfw recovering alcoholic

watch yourself OP if you drink 12 beer a day for a few months you're gonna withdrawal unless you slowly cut back your consumption
>>
>>35476268

Srs? There have been a couple of time I've felt hungover etc. and nearly skipped a worlout but did it anyway. Worried as lifting gets harder willpower will give out, but I like whisky.

>willpower to lift greater than willpower to not drink
>>
You're an alcoholic OP

You might as well leave this board forever.

Is alcohol automatically bad for gains, or is it the carbs etc. associated with drinking a lot of beers and the dissuasion associated with hangovers etc.?

Consider quitting. That amount of alcohol per day is definitely hindering protein synthesis.

I'm a recovering alcoholic and I can say for sure that it wasn't worth it. Alcohol never made me happy. I've been sober now for three weeks and I feel like I'm actually happier and a better person.
>>
did you withdrawal badly during the first week?

Yesterday night I puked so much that today at work everybody thought I was punched in the face?

Does it ever happen to anyone else? When I vomit my face gets all brown and red....

It's fucking stupid! I know I wasn't punched by anyone but other people thinking I was bugs me.

I work as a cashier and today clients were treating me like a little bitch, those "eheh" ackward smiles....
>>
>>35476663
Did you puke 'casue of alcohol? you still stank and you looked fucking shit besides.
>>
Not him but I puke a few times a week from drinking too much and never look like I got punched out
>>
>>35476454
alcohol is terrible for gains with the negative effects lasting up to 72 hours
>inhibits recovery
>lowers test
>increases est
>inhibits protein synthesis ~20%
>lower quality of sleep
>increased risk of dehydration
>>
that's bullshit every hardcore drinker I know definitely isn't low test
>>
>>35475994
You really should stop for numerous health reasons. If you are so weak willed that you cannot, then you will never make it.
>>
>>35477503
>that's bullshit every hardcore drinker I know definitely isn't low test
How old is every hardcore drinker you know? How long have they been drinking like that?

If they are in their 20s and only been heavy drinking for 5 years you have yet to see the pile of shit that will be their body once they hit 30s and 40s. Shit is bad yo.
>>
>>35476082
live in nyc and its pretty normal for people to drink daily
>>
>>35476033
Are you suicidal? Honest question.
>>
>>35476137
>I can drink more than you so I am cooler
Really bro? I guess if addiction is more important than health and aesthetics to you then sure.
>>
>>35475994

Beer definitely. It's like pure fat and sugar.

But cigarettes I think are okay in extreme moderation. I used to smoke a cigarette every once in a while after a hard workout.
