What's your excuse for not drinking while cycling?

[macapple]

I live in a heavily visited tourist beach town and we have about 10-12 groups visit us each year. Most expect us to be rock stars and show them the town at least 1-2 nights they're here. During my next cycle we will have 3 groups spread out visiting. All will want to be sipping rum and cokes by the pool/beach at the very least.

I understand not everyone is a drinker but for those of you who get crazy once in a while....What's your excuse to friends and family for not drinking while cycling?

If you look fit and like health and being jacked is important to you, then people just assume that drinking isn't a big part of what you do. If someone says, c'mon bro have a shot. And your response is, "naw, I'm cool" that should be enough. Either that or go ahead and take a shot then sip on a diet coke the rest of the night. You're in decent shape based on your avi but if you declined to drink, my thought wouldn't be that you must be on steroids.

bro my excuse for not drinking is I detest hangovers.they fuck up my ability to have a kickass workout while on cycle or even when I'm not cycling at all.when I was younger I used to drink constantly,and I was definitely a binge drinker.as I've grown older I love being in control and making the best out of everyday I have,that means not being green,hungover and dehydrated from getting shitfaced and blowing money all the time.alcohol is hell on your liver,if you're cycling I recommend not drinking at all to be able to take full advantage of the gear you're putting into your body.otherwise I see it as a HUGE waste of time,money and an unneeded strain on your body and liver.

if someone offers you a shot,no thanks I've got to train tomorrow and don't want to fuck it up should be more than enough of an explanation.

I definitely drink less while on cycle, but I completely abstain while dieting. Alcohol + low carb diets severely impair my judgement, and I've gotten into some serious trouble. I'm not as worried about the excess calories and what-not, but the alcohol itself does crazy things to me while dieting. I get wasted off of a six pack, when it would normally take 18 on a bulk. I just say, look, im on a diet and already pissed off because of it, and if you don't wanna see the cops tonight, don't tempt me with alcohol.

I stopped drinking all together back in 07 when I became serious about my health! I would just be truthful and say weightlifting is a lifestyle and not a hobby for you .

Excuse ? I don't feel I have to give any one an excuse for not wanting to drink.

When you became serious about your health??? Since when taking steroid is healthy... You might not feel the side effects of enlarged heart and many other risk right now but it will catch up to you and bite you in the ass..

lol test is prescribed medically to thousands around the world, yes there are down sides and risks, as with anything but with proper cycling and bloodwork and care taken it can be used for many years to come with great benefits, take our man radar and nelson am sure put most of us younger guys to absolute shame, yes we are serious about our health because we chose not to drink or smoke we eat healthy and we workout regularly id much rather choose this life style and say call myself 'serious about my health' then that of a douche bag
