Does it really make that much of a difference?

I casually work out and have noticed gains. How can one night of drinking significantly take away weeks or even months worth of gains? If you don't mind explaining.

I think you guys are hardcore on diet/training so for me maybe I just do not notice at all. I have just eaten less/ a bit better choice of foods with more excercize since January and things are moving along nicely.

Kind of worried that I may be slowing down my progress because I like to get drunk 1 day of the week usually.

I was kidding

, although it will slow it down a lil imo

You see... the hops in beer cause deforming muscles and gains are lost after 3 oz of a craft brew.

It'll only affect you if you get drunk.

A couple drinks now and then is fine.

At least you didn't just write it off and not go at all.

I had a wicked arms day today since I didn't do it last night.

It's the alcohol, it's basically an acid that eats muscle tissue.

starting to see that big blue vein that goes through the bicep when i db curl. means im getting leaner and biceps are getting bigger *hell yes*
also i did 60x8 on flat db press by myself for the first time. i did 8x45 for warmup then 3x 8x60. im proud of my training today
means i'm officially 2 times stronger when doing flat bench db press than when i started (could barely do 8x30)

Chest day today.

Fun day. Got my dips way up since I last posted stats, I'll update my chest day weights later.

^ the video above: 150 ain't bad at all for a guy his size, I see big bastards lifting 130-160s all the time at the gym.
one of my training partners does 5 sets of 8+ reps with 130s
