Night out drinking
ad
Okay so let me first start by saying that I almost NEVER drink. Like honestly it's like once every few months if that. Tomorrow however, my girlfriend and I are going to a big casino resort for the night and I know we will probably get completely bombed lol
So my question is, since protein synthesis is supposedly effected by alcohol, should I even lift tomorrow? And should I keep calories low throughout the day to mitigate any kind of fat gain or should I just enjoy myself for a night and eat as normal? Maybe I'm over thinking this but as bodybuilders and physique enthusiasts I think we all tend to over analyze things from time to time. Also the only gear at the moment is 250 test e E4d so no liver toxicity to worry about.

Hello Mr Pump,
The way I look at it, everything in life has to be in balance. You take PEDs, you may look good in the mirror and get all advantages however at some point some damage gets done to your body.
As enhanced athletes that choose this route, we are aware damage is getting done to the body therefore we are doing everything possible to minimise the other negative aspects of life that couldn effect your health negatively.
My choice is bodybuilding and therefore I stay away from alcohol or other substances that can effect my health in a negative way as I am aware that I am creating enough damage by having PEDs in my life
Regards
Here’s how I was affected by partying with my wife one night off cycle, I went to get my bloods done the next morning hungover as shit and I was at 161 total test. Kind of scary and unexpected. Blamed it on the alchohol and it was true cause I got bloods a few mos later and total test was at
349...
Everything in moderation..
..especially moderation.

What would Arnold do?
He would have mixed a little protein in his whiskey and taken a few strippers along.
Nothing wrong with relaxing every now and then.
Also remmeber. Nothing good but trouble after 2am but jailtime and fights..: I must be getting old lol
Have fun dont worry it about it bro and id Skip the workout the next day. And make that as one of your rest days for the week. Eat what you want and what I always do to avoid a hangover is chug as much water until i cant drink no more and this almost always helps avoid gut rot the next day. I cant even drink four beers anymore without getting gut rot the next day.
X2 if your not earning a living from it have fun from time to time. I haven’t had a beer in twenty years but back in the day I partied every weekend and made gains. I’m not advising anyone to do that but I did. Arnold smoked a blunt at the end of pumping iron...
DonaldPumpThank you guys I really appreciate all the replies! I'll go have fun and avoid the notorious drunk eating
Hydrate per the lads below
Work hard and earn your night on the sauce
I am a seasoned drinker me, big part of our culture over here. I believe our lot (bb'ers) can be the best type of drinkers once we master organ support. So i know you're low testo but you should mind the liver anyway. Take some supports for it from time to time.
Dont worry about cals from the gargle... its really minimal. And alcohol can raise testo significantly the next day.... hangover horn etc!! The cals issue when drinking regularly really comes from the way the gargle lowers our inhibitions and we end up eating shitty foods. If truly bothered; just drink a Gin and some slimline tonic with cucumber, lemon, or lime or whatever (no homo).... hardly any cals at all.
Anyways.... earn it, and have fun!!!!
RustyhookerId worry more about dehydration and a killer hangover. Pedialyte bro. Since its a random party. Eat big meal and hydrate after. Keeps ya from puking
I'd go to KFC, natural chicken burger and juice!
RustyhookerI get 3 soft tacos and giant french fries from the 24hr spot.
Nope. Four chili cheese burritos from taco bell. Boom. And maybe a couple soft shell taco supremes. Damn I'm hungry
RustyhookerOhhhh man....the half pound beef bean combo burritos... im hungry!
It’s obvious we are from the same era...
RustyhookerHigh five! Coat the gut with tasty foods.
Once in a while isn’t gonna hurt anything bro!
Key to life is moderation but as body builders that’s hard for us to comprehend sometimes! Lol
Lol our lifestyle literally contradicts this notion of "moderation" But yes i agree with the once in awhile not hurting anyone.
AnonI'd eat good and still lift, if you don't drink very much throughout the year, you're probably not going to have to drink much to get drunk. Obviously weight is a factor but I'm 260 and had 3 but lights with dinner on Friday and I was buzzed.
I wouldn't care too much about that. Driniking one - two times per year is definitely no reason to worry about. I just wouln't go to the gym the day after and very important, stay hydrated all day long!
Dominick77Just go out and enjoy the night out with your ol lady brother. Put all this in the back burner for the night and have fun. (Be responsible of course) If you only drink once in a blue moon like you claim, it shouldnt be so bad, but drink and party responsibly. Dont overthink it, just have fun.
