Be prepared for a headlong dive the fate's cooking for you. The higher you climb the longer the fall.

Just take a couple weeks off depending on how bad it hurts?

>>76862894
I mean what else can I do, but it sucks knowing that I'll lose momentum and weeks if not months of hard earned progress.

Worrying about it will probably do more damage than actually abstaining from training.

>Strength athletes who don't touch weights for two weeks don't lose muscle mass, don't put on weight and don't lose strength either. Sports scientists from Baylor University write about it in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research. And whether the athletes use protein shakes or simple carbohydrates during their training period and detraining period makes no difference.

Study
>The researchers did an experiment with 20 students, all of whom had been doing weight training for some time. The participants all followed an identical training programme [RT] for four weeks and then did not train for two weeks [DT]. After that the students did another four weeks of training with weights [ReT].

>Half of the participants were given 25 g maltodextrin after each strength training session and the half were given 25 g whey. In the detraining period [DT] the participants took their maltodextrin or whey early in the morning.

Results
>As the experiment progressed the participants gained strength. During the detraining period the participants maintained their strength. The statistics show that it made no difference whether they used whey or not.

Tl;dr: don't worry you don't lose muscle nor strength that fast.

I am going regularly now at least but I still drink too much. And the thought of another 3 months of losing weight before I can start to gain muscle is depressing
