Hello guys! This will be my first post, and i only have a simple question.

I am currently on a test e and deca cycle, and im 7 weeks in. tho enough about that.
My question is, how long should i wait before drinking alcohol? I know pure vodka is the best, and that i should drink a lot of water anyways to keep my gains.

Sry for the bad english:)
 
None... not a good idea. but if I were going to, maybe a glass of red wine, but none is better
 
A few beers or a couple glasses of wine isn't going to hurt you on or off cycle. If you drink to get drunk then that can be a problem. Makes your liver work overtime. It's all about moderation.

alcohol is counter productive to muscle gains. do yourself a favor and stop drinking if you want bigger muscles.

having said that after cycle is probably the WORST time to drink alcohol.. you want to protect as much gains as possible.. this is the time to be on point with everything, not slack.
 
No to mention your test plummets and your estro skyrockets after a good ole night of gettin mowed, and protein synthesis comes to an abrupt halt
 
Hey guys I'm new to this forum.. I don't know where to start. Any advice?

Let's step it up then bro. I say we go pro with the knitting. The lifting stuff is boring
 
Bro what your asking is like saying, should you start eating ice cream and cake after you've reached your dieting goals. Why put in all the work to just throw it away after? If your not committed to putting a 100% effort into this year round then there is no point in doing it. Steroids are for advanced lifters who wanna get the most out of their training and hard work. If your planning on just being lifter who takes a half hearted approach then don't bother with juice. Just lift when you want and drink yourself to oblivion. The body is put under enough stress during a cycle which includes recovery. There is no need to abuse it any further, which drinking booze does. I'm sure there is plenty of people who juice that drink, but its not smart at all. I put every fiber of my being into reaching my goals and I'm certainly not going to throw my effort away on alcohol. You need to figure out your level of commitment to reaching your goals. Do you want to achieve all of your goals and will stop at nothing to get there? If so, you know damn well drinking isn't the way to get there.

Well said....
 
Thanks for the respons! im not a huge drinker, i almost dont drink at all. i just wanted to know, cuz ive only read about ppl asking about drinking ON cycle, which i never will do. where i live, it is a huge party week every year, and it starts 10 days or so after last shot of deca. in that case,if i decide to drink, i will not get drunk at all.
 
^^^ move, find new friends.

how old are you?

sounds like you live in a frat house or something.

10 days after deca you would have ample esters still left in your body and you should be preparing for pct. again this is the worst time to play around. you probably are too immature to use steroids it sounds like otherwise you wouldn't even need to ask this question. you work hard during cycle to slack off after. think about it and be smarter than that
 
Are you really telling me to move and find new friends? I have a house, wife and family in this town. so no, i wont move.
I am 27
I am si tired of ppl criticizing every little thing when asking a question. I ask because i have never taken a beer or alcohol while on a cycle or shortly afterwards.
as i said, i asked because it was a big party week, and i lack experience and info about the alcohol on/shortly afterwards a cycle.
 
Only 4 posts in and you're sick of criticism already? Got a long road ahead of you lol. Jk. You should have been more spacific from the start. No reason to get butt hurt.
 
yes, i know i should have been more specific. ive read a lot on forums, and there are a lot of criticisem, instead of asnwering the question.

Probably bc the question has been answered 4000 times already but ppl won't take a second to research. Just saying
 
ive done my research. kinda didnt find many post about alcohol some days AFTER cycle. only found the posts about alcohol ON cycle,that dont interest me, cuz i wont do it. i only wanna know how bad it is to drink between cycle and pct. didnt learn anything from the answers i got, already knew it.
 
calm down man i answered your question. but since its not the answer you wanted to hear you don't want to listen to it. which is fine. no different than people who i fish with who catch nothing but when i tell them to change their bait or rig they are too stubborn to hear it so they go home and say the fish weren't biting instead of listening to others advice.

if you don't care about the gains you made then drink up.

if you do then don't.

life is all about making choices. after cycle you will have low T levels for several weeks and during that time you are at risk for losing a tremendous amount of gains and strength especially. so if you eat and drink shitty then yeah you will lose even more gains. thats common sense.

if you do some homework you would see I know a little something about keeping gains after cycle. i have a thread up with pics and I just got bloods done as well showing how to do it. you can listen to the advice or you can ignore it.. totally up to you.

and there are plenty of 27 year olds who are alcoholics. you can be one at any age.. its the #1 reason for hospital visits actually.. but it remains legal yet steroids rank #600 or something and its illegal.. go figure

and welcome to EF.. just don't have a crappy attitude and you will quickly find a lot of helpful advice and answers to your questions. having said that what is your pct like after deca?
 
Yeah, alcohol is bad, everyone knows that. But that doesn't mean that serious lifting or cycling roids has to go with total abstention. Just ask your average NFL lineman :)

Your cycle puts some stress on your liver. Drinking puts a little more.

A liver function blood test would be a good thing to know.

10 days after your cycle, you aren't back to normal. You don't really know how much your liver is stressed without a blood test.

I'd say the risk is pretty low if you want to have a few beers on a special occasion. There is a huge difference between a few beers and getting drunk as far as your liver is concerned.
 
I always wait until well after pct when I feel my gains have "solidified" before I enjoy a few drinks on occasion. Then I go to the strip club and see how many lines I can do off of Candice's left butt cheek. JK!














...or am I?
 
One or two beers isn't going to hurt you, that doesn't mean you have my blessings to do it, As Steve said it's all about choices and commitment. Red wine also wouldn't be bad also ,stay away from Vokka and other hard stuff, if you find yourself doing this every weekend then you have a problem ,not to mention your liver and kidneys are already stressed from running a cycle, after cycle should be your time to concentrate on training & diet keeping it intense so you can help solidify gains not the time to get slack, this is where alot of people mess up.
 
Yeah asking about drinking on a bodybuilding forum isn't going to get you anything but a "no," what would you expect? Check out all the other drinking threads, they all end the same. I echo everything that has been said, if you want to maximize gains, then of course don't. But even on cycle, having a couple drinks isn't going to be the end of the world when using injectables. An oral cycle is way worse. In PCT isn't the best time though, your body is weak. Be smart, be responsible but hell, don't miss a once in a lifetime party because you are worried about your liver failing and loosing 15 lbs after having a beer. You going pro? Nah, didn't think so. Me neither.
 
There's a lot of self righteous people on this forum...... Drink a few beers, it stresses your liver,a lot. You get screwed it's on you. Otherwise, don't be a sunbeds about it. But I would wait until AFTER your pct.....

more than the drinking after this cycle i'm way more concerned with this guys PCT .. deca is a bitch to recover from so pct is CRUCIAL.

and i'm also getting the feeling he failed to control progesterone during cycle as well and he is using nolva here.. these are very common mistakes guys make.
 
Guess there wont be any drinking for me then. and if i do, ill only take a few drinks. im running some letro during the cycle.

Hardcore man.. Isn't it destroying your estro? What dose you running the letro?
 
You must feel like shit. At peak blood levels, letro will crush estro at a rate of 98%
 
wrong info. im running 1/4 tab of 2,5mg a day. then i can understand you saying i must feel like shit:p but aat that low dose, im not. havnt feelt anything on this cycle except that i sweat a little more.
i will be using clom, but im thinking about doing some arom since got it, and i wanna recover well. what ya think? any experience you would wanna share?
 
I recommend deca and mast for pct bAHA nah but clom/aromasin isn't bad, it's what I used to use but read up on forma stanzol. I run my serm at a lower dose/shorter time using forma in pct now, which is a great thing considering the sides that serms can throw at you. Search the forum up, there's some good pct ideas thrown around every day here
 
Wow we reall got off topic. Totally forgot he was running deca lol
