i love having beers and was wondering how much it effected muscle growth; does the number of beers you drink determine the amount of growth that takes place, or will a single beer fuck it all up? ie. if one person had 4 beers and another had eight, would it matter, is having one the same as eight?

i appreciate anyone that can help me out on this one, personal experiences would also be great.

i know that beer dehydrates you and on a bulking cycle the last thing you want is to be dehydrated because then you will bloat up from too much water retention. Just try to lay off the brews until your cycle is over.

Be sure to get some milk thistle. Help that liver if you are going to drink.

Beer:

1. Inhibits muscle growth
2. Dehydrates your body
3. Depletes you body of key minerals
4. Taxes your liver
5. Inhibits test levels in your body

All in all, these are or should be enough to convince you that drinking during a cycle is not a good idea. But if you must, with all things considered, do it minimally.

a lot of guys will get smoked up every few weeks while on a cycle,I love beer and I know it ain't the same but it's a head change and better than wanting to drink. good luck

Does anyone know what exactly causes the lack of muscle growth? Is it the dehydration, lack of protein synthesis, all of the above, etc? I was just wondering if anyone had any preventive measures they take if they are drinking.

I hate to admit, but I usually will have a few beers almost every Saturday night. I have a weakness for females, and alcohol seems to go hand in hand with that. I don't smoke weed anymore because it makes me want to eat Doritos and alcohol makes me want to eat...Something a lot prettier.

you know having a beer is something that everyone thinks is bad, but you know that franco columbo use to drink a six pac of light beer everyday, because it is the best form of yeast that a bodybuilder can receive. Remember when arnold said milk is for babies.....drink beer, see I try to drink a light beer atleast eod, or on the weekends, a sixpac maybe. So since light beer is the best form of yeast a builder can get.........now post all the bs about beer.

Worse with a higher dose.Dispropotionately
worse.8 beers will be 50x worse then 1 IMHO
I am an alky who has had alchohlic hepititis so I know to much about this unfortunatly.Drinking everyday builds up fat in your liver,impairing function.

DRINK THE NIGHT BEFORE YOR OFF DAY THAT WAY YOU CAN RECUPERATE AND NOT HAVE TO DO SHIT. DRINK PLENTY WATER TO FILTER THE ALCOHOL OUT.

Hey Guys, I had a source that was a fucking idiot when it came to taking gear. He drank like 12-24 beers a day and was on a ungodly
4 tabs of anadrol 50/day for 8 weeks. He gained nearly 60lbs and amazingly was doing fine....until. I heard recently he got out of a month long stay in intensive care where he was undergoing liver treatments because his shut down!! Just one more dumbass in my life!

Smart choice. It make no sense to drink and try to build muscle for all the reasons stated above me so well.
I used to try to drink and lift. I don't know about the rest of you but if I drink... That bar is heavier.
