I think its funny when alcohol is mentioned on this forum... i dont think there is anything wrong with having two or three drinks on the weekend... at most.... i have not seen any problems... and its not considered drinking heavily...
Now of coarse theres exceptions as with everything elseI think its funny when alcohol is mentioned on this forum... i dont think there is anything wrong with having two or three drinks on the weekend... at most.... i have not seen any problems... and its not considered drinking heavily...
Exactly.. very well said... you can always have to much of a good thing...Yes the alcohol itself is not beneficial but the ingredients in things like red wine may have some benefits but I think they would still be there without the alcohol.
A little here and there won't hurt , I don't think anyway. Being a recovering alcoholic I have seen it kill a lot of people though... including both my parents. Alcohol probably takes more lives than all other drugs put together but I understand that only people that have problems with it need worry. Treat it with respect is all cuz it's very powerfull.
Yup, I havent been getting enough rest and got really sick myself. Nearly ended up in the hospital. Its been a bad week, havent been able to eat and been stuck in bed/bathroom. Dont even know how much weight I've lost. Its not worth it, all the hard work shouldnt go to waste, gotta take care of yourself.Could easily be a combination of the two. Careful man, don't get sick! Gotta rest to keep immune system up this time of year. The mattress makes all the difference.
Yeah man i wasnt feeling too good... work was passing around a bug...Welcome back ...
Heyyy havent seen you in some time. Hows everything?Sometimes a week off is necessary to get your body back into a healthy mode, your body is not going to recover properly from training if you are sick or under the weather, so always remember your health comes first... Like my Dad used to always tell me when I was younger and would push it past my limits, etc. (Ya don't wanna be the best looking guy in the Morgue!"
I like that what your dad said. Yeah i feel alot better. Just kept resting.Sometimes a week off is necessary to get your body back into a healthy mode, your body is not going to recover properly from training if you are sick or under the weather, so always remember your health comes first...

There is a time to deload and a time for resting, as long as it's all part of the plan...Deload is a good idea. You may not have to take the time off completely just do exercises to far less exertion...lift light. lol.
At least to body still gets the stimulation of muscle movement and maintains the mentality of training. It would help clear up any illness by keeping the lymphatic system moving.
Woke up this morning for leg day... its really hard to drink half a gallon of milk while doing leg day lol... i almost puked...
Front squats 105 10x10
Leg ext 180 3x10
Single leg Leg press 415 3x10
Back ext w/ 45 3x15
Felt real good...
I keep it minimal as well but by personal preference. Can't remember the last time I had milk. I know guys who go through 3 gallons in the course of a week.I can't take much dairy but can't even imagine it around a workout...
Lol thats me!!! I used to not be able to drink milk... but now i tolerate it well... even when i could only drink lactaid... i still drank 3 gallons lolI keep it minimal as well but by personal preference.

Mandatory criteria for me. If she doesn't want it in the morning, it wasn't meant to be.For those un-married guys always have your lady spend the night cuz you may require her in the morning
Ha. Yeah... good thing she wants it....Mandatory criteria for me. If she doesn't want it in the morning, it wasn't meant to be.

I have a morning argument all the time, like when I go to bed I'm tired and ready to sleep. But when I wake up I'm refreshed and ready to go.Mandatory criteria for me. If she doesn't want it in the morning, it wasn't meant to be.

Good to hear you're doing better, I'm only just starting to get better myself. I guess I was just pushing myself too hard. I think I just needed rest, and mostly slept for about a week. I'm hoping to get back to the gym and work next week.Hey guys.
I feel 100% better. Dont know why it took me so long to finally recover from the comp. My energy level just sucked... still waiting on blood work... dr office is being a pain in the butt.. sry about my training too.. this pct is doing great for libido and estrogen sides. My body feels rejuvenated. Im just curious what cholesterol, kidneys and liver say.
My training really hasnt been that great. Ill maybe get two workouts out of the week and i would be exhausted...
So im sorry on how this log is going... but now i know how to treat my body coming off of contest... i figured i could of just jumped back in.... nah... not the case...
Same, I just started up again this week more or less putting myself in rehabilitation. Doing the same thing for eating, too. This time around I'm having a hard time getting myself to eat back to normal caloric intake. Any suggestions? I really can't stomach more than 2000 cals!I take a week off after a competition to rest.
Yogurt. good bacteria digestive enzymes. Drink your water till after you eat. Thats what those world record hotdog eating guys do lol... dead serious.... gotta stretch the stumach out... Im really trying to get my body back into order also... I dont know whats going on... its just worn out... That long 8 week prohormone cycle just beat my body up i guess... Sex drive is there and im not having any estro sides... three days i will be able to get my blood work... Dr office sucks at calling me back on my heart results... Im noticing after i take this supplement though, now im starting to get lethargic... I really think its the supplement... I might be wrong... my lifting hasnt been that great... This week coming up during thanksgiving im really going to try and go balls to the wall and get all this back... motivation and all... Its been 6 weeks of pcting. 2 more weeks and ill be done... We will see after that is done. im sorry about the lifting fellas i really dont know whats wrong...
