Right well first off i know im gonna be getting flamed from all angles for writing this but last night i had like 2 beers just enough to feel it and a little joint and had a really good arms bi/tri workout lol now i would not reccomend drinkin a six pac hitting a bong then going to the gym no not by any means.. i was ment to go gym as per usual but well i worked alot later then planned by the time id got home ate and got my stuff sorted it was 9pm so yeah any way this was odd i was able to lift with alot more intensity then usuall.

e.g i know i can do ex amount of reps with ex amount of weight roughly but i was just going and going and going lol sick pumps i was like wtf i must be "thinking" im having a good workout cause im slightly under the influence.. but the iron doesnt lie and i was going stong last nite haha strange any one else had similar expericence?

p.s ohh and i dont wanna hear ppl saying "dude drinking and lifting is bad" ect.. i know it is i only had just enough to feel it a lil i was by no means shitfaced... just a lil drunk and a lil high.. peace out and one love...
 
It just seemed that way cause you were high. You were really benching 95lbs at 10 seconds per rep and at one point took a 15 minute nap on the leg press.
 
Working out stoned is not bad. I used to do it all of the time when I smoked.
 
When i was younger my friend had a bench at his house we would get drunk and bet who could bench the most.That was 10 years ago I would never lift in that condition today or recommend it.
 
It's probably not really helping your workout at all. It might have felt like a good workout but the empty calories and hormonal changes aren't really helping build muscle.
 
i drank 32 oz of beer and trained arms once, it was awesome. Great pump but def not a good thing for working out...
 
I have also noticed great pump effect taking a couple of beers an hour before workout, so its not nessecary a bad thing to do...

I'm popeye, and weed is my spinach. Weed increases my endurance and power output dramatically. Alcohol, on the other hand doesn't sound like a good idea before going to the gym. I went to a football pre-season scrimmage game half drunk, and I didn't think I was going to make it to the end of the game. I swore to myself that I would never mix alcohol and athletics again.
 
When I used to smoke bud, I would smoke n lift a lot. I always enjoyed it. I'm not a fan of drinking n working out though.
 
Weird coincidence. Last night I actually had a pitcher of beer then went to workout. It was deload so I wasn't concerned with weight. I just wanted to see how it felt. I didn't like it really. Maybe it was due to the quantity of beer, but I just didn't feel comfortable. In my workouts, even deloads, I get in the zone and pound shit out. The alcohol stopped me from really getting in to that mindset.

This time around I definitely drank too much beforehand, but I don't know if I'd try it again unless I'm dicking around with my friends with strongman implements after only 1 or 2 beers (not pitchers, lol).

When it comes to beer and empty calories... that's not completely true when it comes to working out. Your body will use that sugar for energy just like any other carb source you might take pre/intraworkout. For that reason, I would only do beer or wine. No shots before lifting.
 
I used to drink before martial arts classes. You remember things best if you are in the same state as when you learned them. I figured if I ever ended up in the middle of a fight I would be drunk at a bar. I was also another great excuse to drink in college.

On the other hand, I wouldn't try lifting and drinking. Its just ass backward.
 
Theoretically, alcohol should increase the amount of blood flow to the muscle during a workout. Afterall, it is a blood thinning agent. Coupled with its ability to increase tolerance for pain...one could expect some insane pumps and blowout sets. I can recall reading way back when about Arnold and those guys putting shots of whiskey in their shakes. So, adding a shot or 2(max) depending on your weight b4 a workout could potentially be beneficial. The problem, tho, is you have to be completely honest with yourself here...Personally, i have a drinking problem and thus abstain. If i convinced myself it was ok to have some liquor before a workout, id be off the bar doing jaeger bombs b4 i got to my 2nd set at the gym.
 
just got a mental image of me having a few jager bombs and going to the gym lol...

Yeah its not clever really but i see your bro science behind it im sure weed increases blood flow aswell i swaer my arms got pumped! it is silly tho... i start a new cycle in 2 days so i wont be drinking for the next 12 weeks.. im gonna be on the tren tho so i might just smoke the odd joint if i cant sleep but tbh last time i ran it i never really got the sleep side effect but i am running higher dose this time :) ive been drinking too much recently i blame it on my weak mind and my girlfriend always wanting me to come out and get smashed (its hard to balance the two up bodybuilding and social life she was saying i was becoming to boring ect..) ive lost a bit of weight and muscle and strenght feel pretty shit if im honest but cant wait to pin it its time to get serious again i think.

Been slacking for too long now bingeing quite hard its not good mentally or physically speacialy when about 4 month ago i was best shape of my life getting comment like wow you look good and shit to wow youve lost weight!!

Interesting what you said about arnie and them with the shakes tho were did you hear that?
 
it was in some bodybuilding mag a while back i think. i just did a search and found a youtube vid of him doing a shot of jim beam. but he's just joking around. so the 'shot in the pre workout shake' is probably more legend than fact. go figure!

...:hmmm:..err yeah. Ive seen that jim beam vid lol u said u read something about him putting shots in his shakes you go figure.. any way yeah alchol dehydrates you so robs your muscles and the rest of your body of all of its water.. so to have a few jimmy beams the night before a contest could dry out what is all ready a extremly dried out body and thus making you even more ripped go figure...
 
I lift at home so I have ample opportunities to drink beer while lifting, which I often do.

I use to smoke pot before lifting and most other strength exercises, and what most others have said, it is more fun to lift while high, shit didn't even Arnold do it?
There's the old adage that you feel stronger while drunk, which is true, however I never lift while drunk and at the utmost, a little, little buzz. It adds a little intensity. I drink plenty of water while lifting though also
 
Good for you, whatever works for you man. I can tell you it wouldn't work for me though because as soon as I introduce alcohol to my system I feel extremely relaxed followed by lazy, I think most people do especially with beer.
 
I don't really like to lift drunk or high. But I do like to lift and then hit a protein shake while I smoke some tree. Relaxes me. Then I hit some grizzly wintergreen for the sugar-nutrient-rush without the sugar. Then I'm high and go demolish some food, and get high again. Repeat the next day.
 
I take these booze and weed kind of threads about as serious as the one that someone posted a while back about eating pizza everyday. I mean not nothing but pizza, but a few slices of pizza everyday. And he questioned it's validity. "I mean it has protein, carbs and fat..."....then I laughed.

I mean water and proper hydration thins the blood...to where it needs to be. Anytime you introduce an outside substance some other inside substance is throw out of balance, regardless of how it temporarily makes you feel. Oh yea, then there's this thing called brain damage...but I digress....

Hey have fun!

You are always pulling this shit out of your ass! dude, I respect your abilities and all, but you haven't ever gave it an honest go. You haven't. There has never been a reputable non-biased double blind study performed to test athletes abilities while on THC and long term effects of training while on THC.

You sound like the idiots that talk shit about steroids who don't know shit about steroids. Seriously dude, that is you right now. Stop talking out of your ass on this subject. Go lift weights for two years high like I did, or point to a real study, which is impossible because their are none, or shut the fuck up.
