But I'm an alcoholic and I'm gaining 10lbs almost every week on bench

I had a drinking problem for a while, but my antidepressants helped me quit. I essentially don't even think about drinking anymore. Pretty good feeling, desu

I usually cut back around 500 to give me a nice comfy 3-5 beer buzz

Idk if alcohol actually fucks up your gains, but it does influence you to make bad desicions like eating crap and it could also fuck up your appatite the day after and make you less likely to go to the gym the next day. however I think it varies from person to person. For me its muscle memory to not eat shit while drunk and I usually manage to get to the gym even when hungover.

>>40573825
anecdotal, but I've had some nights were I drank pretty heavily and went to train the next day and felt no decrease in performance
I sometimes wonder if I'm just not eating enough and the calories from the alcohol end up helping more than hindering. probably just dumb superstiton

>>40575481
You just weren't drinking heavily then, if you can train at all the next day then you aren't even really drinking at all.

it inhibits protein synthesis too, on top of having tons of cals

it accelerates protein synthesis by increasing liver enzymes so if you manage to eat it can actually be good

If you're a legit alcoholic, seriously consider putting the bottle down man. I'm 28 and shit got pretty dark for me before I kicked booze. 6 months sober as of next week, shit couldn't be better.

How long did your PhD take you?
I'm not the fat fuck arguing with you.
I'm just curious because I'm considering applying to Harvard for mine (in a very different field) and want to know a little about the experience.

Why, my man

Took me 2 years because im an absolute ledge. You can apply but the interview was ruthless honestly because they give all sorts of subtle iq tests to root out who has just rote learned answers and who actually has the one the spot smarts.

God you sound like such an insufferable faggot

>>40575796
No

>>40575822
Ok

Tfw people are paranoid and think drinken from time to time some alcohol destroys every gain.
People have been drinking alcohol for thousands of years. There is a clear line between use and abuse.

>>40575601
This. Can confirm
