Before I started lifting I used to drink pretty much every night. I heard that is has pretty negative effects on your gains so I cut it out entirely. I havent had a drink in a few months.

Take a dram or two of whisky every night and you're 6'4, like me? You'll be fine

Do it in moderation, don't get drunk, that's the only part where you're going to experience dehydration

Alcohol consumption stops protein synthesis, while it filters out the poison (alcohol). It's best to keep it to a minimum.
Getting drunk several times a month, is probably fine. The same cannot be said for several times every couple weeks, or binge drinking.

I'm making great gains and I drink a single beer every night. I also go out every second weekend and get tanked.

Quoted By:

for me, there is nothing worse than going out and getting drunk for gainz.

1. you consume thousands of calories of bad carbs
2. you become terribly dehydrated
3. you will almost certainly not train the next day because of being hung over
4. eating right the next day is difficult

i love going out and having drinks and having a laugh but holy fuck there isn't much else that will jeopardize a week a gains, especially when cutting

Mushrooms are basic macronutrients with calories

And most berries. And apple seeds. And certain types of protein (rainforest frogs).

Meh. Just drink at night and not excessively.

The booze helps me sleep which is more vital than not experiencing a slight delay of protein synthesis.

Better not shitfacing yourself every single day then.

A shot/beer a day won't have any effect on you, and if you think otherwise you shouldn't stop being so fucking autist.

While I agree going out to a bar or party is great for social gains, just make sure you don't get totally shitfaced. My recommendation would be to drink a maximum of 6 beers per week.

It affects it slightly. Only severe alcoholics or really hard binging result in a noticeable effect on protein synthesis.

Every time I get really drunk the following week my body loses some weight because of the lack of eating for the first 48 hours after drinking. My body looks more slim but when i'm trying to bulk it sets me back about 2 weeks.

Every time I have a hangover I have to desperately rationalize why I shouldn't kill myself.
Cannabis is a much healthier alternative in terms of mental health, and I believe it's effects have helped me drink alcohol much less and alleviate depression.
I only use it before bed, so I'm only high for like 15 minutes at the end of the day. It's the chronically (pun intended) elevated cannabinoid levels that give me the benefits.

not bad at all, like most of bad things, do it in moderation, like smoking for example, having one cigarr on like new years eve wont hurt you, yet smoking everyday will reck your shit.
just like drinking, drinking everyday will kill you, trying to chug down beer like a faggy fratboy every weekend will wear you down.
having one small glass of good whiskey on a friday after work wont do nothing but giving you a aftertaste of whiskey in your mouth.

Drinking every day WON'T kill you as long as you don't drink too much. Drinking a few drinks fault can reduce heat disease by up to fifty percent.
