    Are you taking orals? If so i would not drink at the same time ever. If not you should be ok for one night but dont drink too much. My rule is no drinking period on cycle.

    Well, its definitely not good for your cycle.....Plus, why would you want to do something that is counter productive to the goals which you are trying to reach...If you do drink, i would limit to one or two drinks......There is a great sticky somewhere on here about the effects of alcohol on your body......Once i find it, i will post it on this site....

    A toast drink to the bride and groom is one thing...

    Getting totally S-faced is quite another... I hope your not doing that one.

    I agree a toast is fine, but anything else IMO is a waste b/c of everything you put into your cycle as said above. Plus it's just extra work for your kidneys and liver.

    Have a drink, toast your friends.
    And stick to club soda.

    Dont get drunk.

    drinking one night definatly will not mess up your cycle. almost all of us have done it at one time or another. obviously you dont want to drink all the time but one night wont effect you the slightest bit

    exactly. People put to much effect on what one night will do. Its not different then the scare tactics that steriods can cause.

    In the end of a 10 or 12 week cycle one bad day of drinking, poor diet or bad day in the gym mean nothing

    You'll be ok imo but remember it'll mess your schedule up if you plan on working out tomorrow. I don't recommend going to the gym all dehydrated and reeking of alcohol.

    exactly with you and PT on this one.

    I used to be a firm believer in drinking one night will hurt everything becuase your on cycle. Then i realized i wasnt training for IFBB pro bodybuilder MR. Olympia. One night wont hurt your cycle and as stated we all have done it, true its not the best healthiest choice to make but that holds tru regardless if you are on cycle or not. And in the whole picture of things its not going to hurt your gains in the end of a long cycle.

    obviously the extra calories especially empty ones are not good for the diet but people are mixed some drink and some dont its probably genetics some can drink and be fine and some like me have a cheat meal and have to monitor it because i can ruin a whole week on a cheat day easy if im not careful

    I have a drink every 2 weeks to keep me sane, and, apart from that one drink, my diet is always in check, never miss workouts, and do cardio everyday. Doesn't hinder my gains at all.

    personally i dont really drink anymore because i just dont like the way it makes me feel but i cant see how one night of drinking is going to make someone just lose a weeks worth of gains. i live down the road from a DE from the steelers, arron smith and he has a few every friday night yet he is 6'5'' 305lbs of solid muscle. obviously you shouldnt make a habit out of it or drink heavly with orals but im sure 1 night of drinking wont hurt a damn thing unless your competing for mr. O in a few weeks

    If you are on A-bombs or dbol I wouldn't drink. However if you are mid cycle and have dispensed with the orals then no problem ..... enjoy a few drinks ... unless you are one of those people that alcohol turns into an a$$hole!!

    Heavy alcohol consumption hurts you on or off cycle, I really believe it doesn't matter if your on or off.

    Documented averages.............
    150,000 people died last year from drinking, 10,000 from both cocaine and heroin, zero from AAS.

    just my observeation. But i noticed alot of ex addicts have the same feeling as you do. But some people can go out and just have a couple drinks and have good time. It doesnt have to be abuse. I do understand that some people cant.

    i have a pretty immense hatred for alcohol but ive never been an addict or anything remotely close.

    i mostly hate it because ive had to deal with a lot of people that either hurt me or themselves as a result of alcohol. being in the social work field kind of influences how i see things as well

    i do understand but i feel its more the person then the drug or alcohol. Lots of people can use it responsibly. I do agree alot cant also

    If youre not athlete or bodybuilder than do whatever you want. Its your life and health.

    Personally, imo, I think people who drink to any level of intoxication while on gear are fvcking idiots. Just my O and Im not going to defend it.
