    Test pro and drinking alcohol.

    Hey guys . im running test prop at 300 mg a week. Also running some liquidex. I am seeing great results. jumped from 100 lb dumbells on chest press to 130's. in less then 2 weeks. Ive gained 5 lbs in what seems to be muscle as well. Ive for sure gained size and in all areas . great stuff. Anyways quick random question. Does drinking alcohol affect the test prop at all? Cant really find a legit source for this question. Its random yes. If anyone could give me their opinions id appreciate it. thanks

    Depends how often you drink, this question gets asked a million times a year.

    If you are drinking all the time and living a party lifestyle then it is not the best to be on AAS obviously. Having a drink every once in a while won't kill you.

    How long are you running your cycle? If you're running a 6-8 week cycle with prop you might as well just buckle down and stay clean and get the best gains in those 6-8 weeks.

    Depends. Are you talking a social beer once every few weeks, or all out binging all the time?

    It's best to limit while on cycle, if not completely cut it out. Alcohol can cause an increase in estrogen and decrease in testosterone, and makes training the next day suck more than it should. Plus on cycle livers don't need the extra stress lol.

    occasional beer is ok. if u really really really must binge go wine or shots. less calories more drunk ness n more room to get those food calories in!

    thanks for responses.. i for sure dont binge all week lol.. Im talking like a few glasses or wine or dark beer with friends. im running cycle for 8 weeks. so i have 6 weeks left. to be honest i have yet to add my liquidex in. i have it just havnt taken it yet. i heard conflicting ideas of taking it because im not running that much test prop.. a lot of people said i prolly wont need it and some said i do.. some said wait for chest sorness around nipples..

    Be committed to your cycle and you will get the best gains. Why go 4 steps forward and them take 2 back! It's only for a few wks so be dedicated to the job in hand. Don't be weak minded .
    You can still socialize without drinking.

    During an 8-10 week cycle my wife and i usually only go out once for drinks to see a local band. Other than that i stay away from it and focused on my cycle. Besides possibly dehydrating you, it could help cause gyno. And who wants to take a chance on that?

    Can you drink? sure. Should you? NO, if you are serious about what you are doing you wont. Its empty calories and does nothing positive for you, so why do it.

    Because most people are doing this for a hobby. They arent making money off their looks. You shouldnt have to give up your life for 12 weeks. Hell alcohol will effect your gains more off cycle then on.
    If people can't tell your on steroids then your doing them wrong

    Your life shouldnt be alcohol imo. Then again i dont drink. My life is pretty clean. I dont compete in body building but i compete in other events that alcohol would effect me very much. "Guess thats my outlook"

    Just saying that's my point of view. Not saying its right but i think its good healthy advice.

    Im completely against drinking while using orals tho.

    Guess its just a opinion question /answer.

    I agree people have different opinions. But as far as the question will it interact with the prop the fact is no, it wont.
    Just like someone posted the other day if you drink you piss out all the extra test you inject. Thats not true. There is nothing wrong with your opinion. But as fact having some drinks on cycle isnt going to hurt you or ruin your cycle.

    I just reread his question, and misunderstood it. I blame lack of sleep and my team mates beating me up for this up and coming international tournament im doing.

    You are correct sir lol, carry on.

    Yeah we sent a few guys to new jersey for that. They got gold in nogi. After this ibjjf tournament im focusing on mma again. I just want a international medal damnit.



    Thats why im so picky about alcohol and the aas i use. It has to be good for performance. Strength as well as conditioning.

    Ahh my friend gixxer i always enjoy your comments on my threads. Now i will say gixxer I gave thought to the eod of test prop which woulda put me like 400 mg of test prop a week but after being in my gym awhile and pointing out to myself the guys i figure ur cycling and later getting to know them and talking about gear and such they all told me to start low and see what works and then increase according to the gain i see on a lower dosage. SO im only 200 mg of test prop a week or 300 max and i am seeing great results with just this lower dosage. Getting a lot leaner and muscles are nice and hard. Strength increase is great and if even mood and energy. I havnt even ran liquidex yet. Now i also have an awesome diet which im sure is contributing to this . Given my free time i am able to eat when need be and eat what i want so thats a plus.

    you kind of confused me. Prop should always be injected eod. If you want to only run 200mg a week then just inject 50mg eod. You dont have to inject 100mg eod. But prop has a short half life and needs to be injected eod
