Steroids and Alcohol

[Hulk54]

A few buddies of mine are coming to visit me from a different state for spring break. I know that getting hammered while on cycle is not a good idea at all. And just to be clear, I don't plan on getting hammered while on my cycle. I haven't touched alcohol since getting on my cycle. But for the weekend that my friends are coming to visit, I was just wondering if it would be safe to drink a beer or two, if not a few shots. when i mean a few I mean probably 3-5 for the entire night. This is a one time thing too as well. Any suggestions or opinons?

Yes you will be fine just try keep it in moderation

I have no science to back this up but in my experience, hangovers are 10x's worse on cycle and between that, the crap you eat while drunk, cals from the beer and days of training missed it just really isnt worth getting fvcked up while on a cycle

Have fun, enjoy the moment, drink plenty of water during the night to help curve the hangover. Dont make it a habit and it wont be a issue.

I agree. I only had 4 beers one night when I was drinking at a restaurant..I woke up feeling like I only had beer in my stomach with a headache..It seems alcohol affects you so much worse when your on a cycle.

Man i train super hard during the week, i eat and train 120% m-f but sat and sun i go out an reward.my self for good work ethic, im not training to compete so i can have a night or two of getting buzzed, if you do make sure you take liver support and drink a lot of water...make sure you make up for those days when you get back in the gym, i actually think this is one of the things that keep my body guessing whats going on in a good way, plus it helps with the stress so enjoy your self my man.

Go to bed you irresponsible advice giver.

I wouldn't drink beer. If you must, try mixed drink like a whiskey and water. Stay away from those girly drinks that have 1/2 lb of sugar in them, and down some ice water before hitting the sack.

So by "mixed," you mean a bourbon on the rocks.

I'm in to the diet coke ... full of chemicals but doesn't knock me out of Keto thou

[Dr Pepper]

A few things.

As said above choose your drink carefully, wheather your on cycle or not you don't want to load up on sugar that is more often than not packed into those Pre mixed drinks.

Seconadly iv read that alcohol is linked to muscle breakdown so once again wheather your on cycle or not you don't want to drink to much if your serious about the game.

But in saying all that one weekend isn't going to kill you. Go out have fun just know your limits. Have fun mate

There's two ways to look at the weekend. One is that you worked and trained your ass off all week so you deserves 2 good nights out. Another is that the weekend is a great time to catch up on sleep and rest.

[swm1972]

You on any orals? Surprised nobody else asked this. Would it still be ok to drink even a little if he were running a large dose of abombs, halotestin, etc? I don't know personally as I don't drink so I have no experience and never researched it because it isn't an issue for me.

Just food for thought.

[BBrian]

When you drink while taking orals you'll actually feel pain in your side. It's a great indicator that your organs are under too much stress.

True but when you go to the #2 party school in the nation is hard to sleep and not get weirddd.... i do my drinking in moderation, and i make sure i sleep 9-10 hours ed so far i keep gaining and keep getting more shredded....on topic, the morning after i drink im dry as fvck and look awesome girls love waking up next to me ...; )

[JohnnyVegas]

Don't drink if on orals. They are already hard on your liver. I know that was said above, just reinforcing.

This might sound strange, but I don't drink simply because I cannot fit it into my macros. Too much sugar and too many calories. That, and I don't make good decisions when drunk.

I found this out the hard way. Couple years ago I was on prohormones and went to a bday party and drank my ass off. Next day I thought I was going to die.

Then this Memorial Day went to the river with a bunch of friends and drank for 3 days straight. Of course this was about 1.5 months into my TRT protocol. Well i ended up going to the doctor the Monday I got back because my damn ankles/feet were swollen to twice the size. I couldn't even get my work boots on. I had to wear tennis shoes to work and I could barely tie them my feet/ankles were so swollen. Its a damn scary thing.

What orals were you on?

[oatmeal69]

Stick to cleaner mixed drinks, and don't make it a habit - I do vodka and club soda, or vodka and Diet Coke. Beer seems to make me WAY more hung over. - I agree, the hangover is WAY worse when cycling. A couple drinks and I feel it big time.

[Hulk54]

Thanks for the advice guys. I got to be the sober one for the nights so we can get back so i'm probably gonna have a drink or two and leave it at that. lol. I'm taking tbol but I'm planning on drinking plenty of water after.

[Todd the truth]

Have you ever watched Jersey Shore those guys drink and smoke, on top of that their diets are horrible. They seem to be fine!! Just kidding, they are all far from fine. I have nothing to offer but sarcasim but the advice above seems pretty solid.

Had 5-6 beers while on t-Bol my kidneys were killing me the next day, will never drink while on an oral again, then again no problems drinking while on test only.

Did your kidneys tell you they were killing you? You're kidneys wont hurt even if they're shutting down..... if i'm not msitaken. You wont feel the pain before the damage is done.

To the OP..... It's going to be fine if you have a few drinks. Hell..... i've seen TONS of people use musltiple orals, drink heavy, AND use rec drugs for weeks on end and they were fine. This doesn't mean everyone will be ok...... but the human body can take quite a bit of abuse..... Not that it should take abuse.

One weekend of drinking..... even heavily..... wont kill you and it wont destroy your cycle unless you're cutting for a show. Relax a little and have some fun..... just stay responsible.

Any pain comming from the kidney area is mostly due to things such as stones, infections, or blocked fluids. It's not the actual kidney but a factor within the kidney causing the pain. Drinking one night while taking a prohormone wont have your kidney screamin with pain.

No need to be sarcastic, I was just explaining my past experiances. When I drank on T-Bol I had very bad pains on my side, please don't tell me I didn't. Maybe it wasn't my kidneys I'm no Doctor but the pain was in the general area, after a day the pain went away this happened 2 different times. I didn't have stones, infections, or blocked fluids, unless my body heeled itself.

I agree. By some peoples standard i would be on my 3rd transplant by now.
I agree be responsible but enjoy your life to. For most of us this is a hobby not a career
