Is a beer with dinner bad?

[newpump]

I'm dying here guys - I am eating clean tonight (of course)... lean steak and baked potato... BUT there are 4 beers in my fridge - JEEZ I'd love to crack one open and have it with dinner. Will it block my ability to get the most nutriants out of my dinner? WIll it kill my "clean" dinner... OH THE TEMPTATION!!!

It will act as a slight duretic and may raise estrogen levels.
But everyone cheats once in a while

Thanks Anabolic - hhehe estrogen?!!? the way I beer goggle after a few you'd think beer is a testosterone BOOSTER ;-p

hell yeah it will. resist those mofos, crack em open and pour em down the drain, cause thats what you would be doing to your clean meal if you drank one.

 

[Furious1]

OK! like I should talk. I would probably drink one then say fuck it and drink all four, who am I kidding.

Carbonation and protein assimiliation don't go together.

Well.......if that was me.......I'd be chugging down every one of them bad boys....... & worrying about it later. But that's just me & my will power isn't worth a shit. The right answer.......of course.......is to drink water.

i would try not to because one beer turns into 10 beers for me. and stay away from it if your using gear currently.

Is a beer with dinner bad? Depends on what kind of beer! Seriously though, for a regular joe a beer with dinner is not unhealthy. However, for those of us who practice "eating clean" as a part of our quest for hypertrophy, striation, and the American way, the beer is out. Especially if you are in the middle of a serious training phase. I will have to wait for my beer for about 5 more months!

regardless of my training regimin i will usualy have abeer with dinner once a month. i usualy get my drank on seriously once every two months.

im very strict otherwise but i just feel the need to break loose sometimes and drink myself retarted for one night to disolve all my built up insanity then im ok . is that ok. maybe im not ok. ok.

Dont worry guys, I do it twice a weekend, sometimes 3.... needless too say I'm not that big.

a beer once in a while won't hurt you.....make sure to keep it once in a while
