Yo

Just out of intrest who boozes it up on this forum?

My answer is I don't, i'm a bodybuilder and that means my life is all about health and looking after myself. I don't see using gear as something wrong, so in my world thats my belief system.

I quit drinking because the word moderation did not come up too often. :blush:

If everybody does it, is it still cheating?

You right, you have missed out nothing, except breaking your religious views. Well done bro... It shows when shows enough negative thought over that of pleasure we can stop anything.. This technique is called NAC

I don't drink for the simple reason that it doesn't serve any purpose whatsoever.

My biggest fear is when I drink I might become a doos like most people when they get drunk.

I don't drink... It just happens naturally for me as soon as I start training heavy all of a sudden a few months go by and I realize I haven't drunk at all..

I went to a bachelor's the other day and I was best man, so I had to drink, really didn't enjoy the feeling and hated myself the next day at gym....

What is weird though, is you realize how many friends you only have because you use to party with them and how many of them are really not that interesting sober.. haha

I never drink around exams or tests.
But when its holiday I do drink, in moderation, most of the time.

But drinking too much too often takes the fun out of it.

Other wise I don't even drink anything with sugar.

I normally indulge on weekends. Get bored. Watch Rugby and braai. Nothing better than a couple of bottles of Vino!

Moderation on the last cycle with nada while on orals.

But like the clown, Dec was too much.
Planning the break from booze carefully - we have been friends since std9 a good 26 years now. Easier said than done. I think all drinkers are alcoholics, just on different stages of it.

But, like with the smokes, it has to be done.

I used to drink pretty much every weekend but for the past 2 years I think I could count the amount of times I've had a drink on one hand.
As everyone else has said it obviously affects you're training alot so I stay away from the stuff.
Suppose it also has something to do with working 2 jobs

Train harder than the guy next to you and one day, no-one will be able to touch you

2 jobs? respect man... not many people would do that...

jeah, it does effect your training if not your training your eating as you go out and before you know time has passed and you not eatin as you 'full' from booze. Little do you know the damage you doing to your body...
