My 2 cents
I've done cycles where I completed stopped drinking and I've done cycles where I got completely shit faced once a week.
Here's what I noticed when I drank...
1- hangovers were incredibly worse than when not on cycle
2-strength was down for atleast 2-3 days after. I would hit all my large muscle groups later in the week because of this. Example: wed-legs, thursday-back, fri- chest, and then drink fri night.
3. Gains weren't noticeably affected HOWEVER I do believe they are affected
4. I overall didn't feel as fit all the time. On the alcohol free cycles I felt as if I could just take off and run 10 miles at the drop of a hat. Not so much when drinking on cycle.
5. Led to binge eating and cheat days the day after. For me atleast. Feeling bad, hungover, fuck it lets get some cheese fries!
Overall the choice is yours. Will it kill you? No. Will it ruin your cycle? No. Will you get the most out of your cycle? No
I'd say if you were gunna do it, do it on a bulking cycle. That way after you drink you can eat a big meal to filter out all the bad shit and prevent the hangover without much consequence. If you are cutting then forget about it or be prepared to take 3-4 days to get back to where u were before u drank...
That was my experience...hope it helps
