>stop drinking beer
>my gyno, visceral fat, and bloated face go away
>metabolism, sex drive, and energy levels increase

I find my sex drive is a little higher when I drink. But yeah, everything else holds true. I like alcohol though, it's always there for me and is my best friend.
It also makes you hungrier because weed and alcohol raise your testosterone.
both of these are detrimental to your hormonal balance what are you on about moron
both cause gyno you stupid homosexual.
On what planet does smoking weed and drinking give you breasts? You people probably eat store brand cheeto puffs and whey protein then wash it down with diet Mt dew and don't eat steak because you think you're gonna get gout and high blood pressure.
The second you do anything even minutely detrimental to your health you shit your pants and are bed ridden for a week.
I'm not some junky saving my 1 gram of weed for the weekends or spending it all on weed and eating like shit. Get to the point of smoking a spliff or tobacco bowl every hour and tell me how big if a deal it is then.
Next thing you'll say is that the people who hit the gym and smoke cigarettes don't lift more than the tryhards spending an hour on the cable machine with a weird physique built on high volume and colorless meat and no fried food who punch as hard as someone below a 1pl8 bench.
>smoke cigarettes
nicotine has been shown to both a) improve your mental health and b) boost testosterone thoughever
aside from that, yeah, smoking is also bad fo your health. but i'd argue beer is unironically 100x worse
People just don't like alcohol because it can ruin your physique if you drink after exercising. If you expend your carbs and shit before it is stored as fat you're good.
Being so insanely high you slur your words might make you lift less but that's an impossibility with tolerance unless you're eating like half an ounce of weed worth of edibles a day. If you don't get extremely high from a whole bowl smoked right that's where you don't really see any detriments.
I honestly might start vaping weed and nicotine mid set instead of going to the sitter like an animal. I still go for the cables and shit but you can't have a home gym and not smoke mid set that's another 2 reps easy.
IS THAT TRUE? I always fricking eat when I drink
This. I should probably find a healthier way to switch off
%3D%3D
i agree with you tbqh, beer just makes me feel bloated and bad for a few days
You can be ripped and enjoy beer. It's called being an adult and practicing moderation.
if i drink, i'd prefer alcoholic drinks that won't make me grow breasts or increase my daily carb intake tenfold
honestly i think the romans were right about the differences between wine and beer. it's also easier for me at least to practice moderation if it's wine.
You do realize that most wine is absolutely loaded with sugar right?
yeah but you don't see most people drinking three glasses of wine every night, unlike most regular beer drinkers hitting the cans 3-4 times every night
Out of 14000 different wines at my wine shop 4000 contain less than 1g/100ml of sugar, thats 7g in a standard bottle.
The winegay drinks a cup. The beergay drinks 5-10 cans
Black person the kinda of people that drink 5-10 cans a night (alcoholics) also exist in the wine drinking world. They drink a bottle or two a night. Get fricked grape homosexual.
>if i drink, i'd prefer alcoholic drinks that won't make me grow breasts or increase my daily carb intake tenfold
for me, it's gin & tonic
Wouldn't women be drinking beer all day if it made their breasts bigger?
Cigs and liquor make women develop raspy voices and moustaches.
Moderate beer consumption is often encouraged for nursing. But ultimately...
>expecting women to make intelligent decisions for self inprovement
I doubt heavy usage would do you worse than 5% of your lifetime max lifts. People that don't drink are often dumb as shit though even if that's the case.
I'm not the other guy. The biggest drawbacks to drinking imo is that it fricks with recovery directly and indirectly with poor sleep. I'm staying sober for the winter months but come summer I'll defintiely have a few from time to time.
The detriments are not worth the gained effects. There's plenty of ways to grow breasts without ruining your kidney and brain
Sounds like a bunch of female versions of whey protein and creatine when a good diet would be better.
>i think the romans were right about the differences between wine and beer
They were right about ALL
Rome was a Black person infrsted shithole you brown subhuman
>proceed to bend the knee to dead fentanyl addicts
I can only imagine some teenage twat saying this.
>le it's called being le adult
Also, beer tastes like dogshit.
>some teenage twat
>also beer tastes like shit
The irony of calling someone a teenager as a insult when you have the taste buds of a child can't into bitterness
I'm a ripped alcoholic, deal with it.
>eat protein like I'm on the leanest cut you've ever seen
>drink carbs like I'm bulking
you have to be 100% northern europe to pull this off
Literally only becomes a problem if you get puke drunk regularly. There is no other way to exercise than to where you have to focus on not appearing fricked up and your breath smells of liquor.
I'm half Russian and half African, this is the story of my life
plus, alcohol jjust gives me energy, all day long
Beer is for men you queer.
why does it make you more depressed and cause breast growth then?
Testosterone isnt all there is to being a man.
Beer is for men in the sense that if youre doing all you should be doing as a man, drinking a couple beers after work is like your medicine. It keeps you high spirited and high thumos.
Dont drink everyday, but dont be afraid of drinking when the occasion calls for it. Those are some of the best times.
IM A MAN BECAUSE I DRINK DISGUSTING FRICKING BREAD WATER
people like this are unironically just so tiring
bump
>israelite psyop convinced the moronic normies that crashing your test and growing a beer gut by drinking copious amounts of the weakest, worst tasting, and most unhealthy alcoholic beverage known to man is “masculine”
If you’re going to drink at least don’t be a gay with watered down trash. Drink hard liquor you pussy
Luquor is for making beer less boring, it dehydrates you because only homosexuals drink water.
>Everything that makes humans even slightly happy is a israelite plot
>You need to be a miserable incel, like me
>To own the israelites
But it is a israelite plot
It doesn’t make human happy
It cause suffering Thought out the world
And the fact that it’s widely celebrated in society
Proves that the israelites tricked you so bad you pay him to poison yourself
>some moron leaves porridge in a clay pot for a few days
>*porridge ferments*
>"woah this shit makes me feel funny haha I should do more"

>some homosexual 6k years later on Estonian knitting forum: muh israelites!!!
More like man discovers alcohol
israelite notices that this vile liquid causes people to kill one self or another person
The israelite also notice it causes broken home and misery
The israelite being miserable disgusting creature wants the world to feel his pain
The figure out that by tricking people into consuming his poison he could not only inflict misery, but profit
So the israelite started to corrupt zogged Christian into believing that the Bible says to drink it.
The israelite started to make movies showing characters drinking when they are sad
Gets musician to sing about drinking sad
This is get ingrain in you , your father , his father, ect
To the point that you don’t question it you just drink when you are sad
You do something stupid and have a nice day or another
You either sober up in prison for life
Either way the israelite is protected because alcohol is sacred somehow
You fell for his trick anon
>The israelite being miserable disgusting creature wants the world to feel his pain
top kek
Meanwhile when you google the founding date of your favorite European beer you see like 4 different decrees from kings that expell israelites from their lands.
I used to drink at home on the weekends but realized it was a huge calorie bomb I could do without. I don't go out that often so I probably average <10 standard drinks a month, still mainly beer because I feel like a gay ordering a vodka diet coke. I haven't paid attention to any specific benefits but I guess my chest looks better and my sleep has improved. I definitely notice worse sleep on a night I've been drinking. I could see myself going sober by my 30s honestly.
I have a friend who's reasonably active, walks everywhere, lifts semi-regularly, but he drinks all through the week and you can tell. Puffy face, hard round belly and man breasts. I do think he'd be in good shape if could reel in his drinking
How many beers are you drinking in a day and how often? I drink 3-4 tall cans (500ml each) or two 750ml bottles in a day, and I only drink about 3 times per week. I haven't noticed any negatives. I get a nice buzz, eat some food, then go to bed early. Feels good man. I just offset the additional calories by fasting the other days.
Beer is the lowest tier alcohol. A glass or two of wine every now and again is the best. Whiskey on special occasions.
interesting
what would you is the most IST approved low-calorie alcoholic drink of this list?
which one has the best alcohol to calorie ratio
Vodka soda.
Vodka soda is my go to
is alcohol free beer ok? I love the taste of carlsberg nordic and am drinking one a day at this point
It's just empty calories without the poison, and it's usually incredibly low calorie at that.
For me, it's picrel.
They say you can't out-train a bad diet but you can absolutely out-train a frew brews
Name a better pre-workout than a big moka pot of coffee some whisky or vodka and beer during the workout to maintain my buzz.
My pwo stack is creatine or a lil steak, 2 or 3 bacon mcdoubles, 2 bowls, a solid swig of on sale liquor, then I fill my thermos like a third with said liquor and walk into a fast food place and full the rest of it up with soda. Then I keep a dab pen and nicotine vape and sneak it between sets.
Once you get going with the liquor and smokes it just doesn't stop they go together like black people and bananas.
I bet you're the biggest guy on all of IST let alone this thread.
>honestly, why the frick does anyone drink this shit?
Originally, because alcohol was a way to create safe drinking water. There was a time when you had to boil a lot of the water you wanted to drink to avoid sickness. Brewed alcoholic drinks like beer, wine, mead, grog, etc provided an option that could be made in batches and stored, transported, and consumed without worrying about contamination so much. Plus, there are lots of people who enjoy the intoxication, either not realizing the downsides or not minding. Now it's embedded in most cultures.
It worked, but it's not great for you long-term to be drinking it all the time like that. Some people say that coffee was a significant component in the Renaissance, because people were able to switch from beer to coffee and be caffeinated all day instead of mildly drunk.
For me, I only drink alcohol if it tastes good, and not often. I like a good craft wienertail occasionally, or beer/mead, but I'm picky. I don't like the buzzed feeling either, so I'll only have one or two.
>Originally, because alcohol was a way to create safe drinking water.
I hate when braindead monkeys parrot this. People have known about boiling water from the beginning of fricking time, regardless of germ theory. Brewing involves not only boiling but precise recipes and practices to get anything that tastes worth a damn to say nothing of the food cost: large amounts of grain, honey or fruit. Any percentage of ethanol that would do dick to sterilize would also lead to net dehydration.
People have drank throughout history for largely the same reasons we do today, it tastes good, feels nice, and helps people get along. And wow wouldnt you know, animals consume alcohol when available for the same fricking reasons. The only other non-moronic hypothetical reason not applicable to today's drinking culture is as a source of liquid calories, see "small" beers.
This is moronic. People weren't drinking strong beers. They were drinking 1-2% abv beers that were massively watered down compared to even Miller Lite today. It was absolutely a major source of calories and hydration. The calories in barley don't disappear just because you boil it.
I mentioned small beer by name and specifically mentioned drinking it as a calorie supplement you illiterate Black person. What I was refuting was that people drank alcohol as a primary source of hydration because regular water was unsafe. 1-2% alcohol is not enough to make unsafe water any more potable and the beers that weak only existed to begin with as a byproduct of normal beer production.
1-2% is more than enough
1 to 2% is and what you're forgetting is that the brewing process requires boiling water which sterilizes right then and there and the 1 to 2% alcohol keeps it from going bad for months. The same couldn't be said about stored water boiled or not. And yes we all know there was clean water back then, but not in all areas, specifically cities. That's why the mead and ales became popular
Dude alcohol was definitely used to sterilize water up till a few hundred years ago. The thing with water is it doesn't store very well even if boiled. That's why armies and ships used rum or other alcohols to sterile their water. That's where grog comes from
In fact, due to its antiseptic qualities, wine was used to disinfect wounds.
Beers with the boys is top tier social activity. Arnold drank beer. Beer rules.
I don’t care what anyone says, I am not going to drink alcohol. I’ve already got past the real life social shame for choosing not to drink, so any homosexual on this board telling me I’m not a real man for refusing to drink is nothing more than white noise.
I have felt great ever since I quit drinking 4 years ago and nothing will ever convince me to drink again.
If you were addicted to it, that's a great reason to stop drinking.
I was never addicted to alcohol. I would have the occasional night of heavy binge drinking, as many people do in their youth.
There was a point where I realized that I do not enjoy alcohol and that I was just drinking to fit in at certain social situations. I figured that people would have more respect for me if I decided to take control of my life and quit drinking all together. As I had expected, my friends and family have more respect more me now than I did when I would binge drink on special occasions.
Sounds like you need to loosen up and have cold beer anon. Maybe with your friends while having fun?
Anon you are making the right choice
And anyone who tells you otherwise is nothing more than a puppet ton the israelites
If I’m gonna destroy my kidney I might as well go all in
How much did you drink? A keg of beer a day (KOBAD)?
~3 beers daily give or take for about two years following college
i've been off the stuff for about a month now with the occasional whiskey or wine with my dad/friends here and there. i can seriously feel and see the difference in my physical and mental health, shit's insane. they really do downplay how seriously fricked beer is for your health. i was having memory issues, breakdowns, dehydration, etc. for ages alongside my face gaining weight and everything.
following even just a month of quitting the stuff, all of my health issues disappeared and i've unironically never looked better
You'd have to drink so much for it to do anything at all to your lifts. Like shitfaced drunk daily waking up with a hangover.
When I go without beer it feels like I'm nutrient deprived and weak.
>do any of you drink?
Yes...
>how do you feel about it?
Staying away from hard stuff mainly.
Beer and wine is alright even tho I get "a little loose" when I drink....Next year probably will go sober again for half a year... dont know yet , need to organize my resolution.
>pic related
>sipping right now
Do Europeans drink anything above 5% they like to say they're alcoholics but they arent.
Gyno can't go away by itself, moron. It's tissue
it can tho
i had puffy nips before and after i started lifting and finally quitting beer it's almost completely disappeared
None of you are men, though. You're incels.
You probably never had real gyno.
You'd have to be so low t for it to even cause gynomasteia. I'm not stopping smoking weed either, maybe nicotine and weed cancels out the inherent effeminization of weed but I highly doubt smoking weed makes you weaker than not smoking weed.
It takes being so incredibly fricked up for me to feel weaker, people who don't get fricked up eat shitty food though so how am I supposed to take anything they say seriously? Trying to minmax maybe 5% of your potential is just ridiculous you are going way tok far with that shit and 5% is being liberal.
The only things that make me happy since my little brother died a few months ago are lifting and drinking. And I guess dancing too.
Drink once a week (Saturday night) but I get absolutely shittered on rye & coke zero.
Good boy rest of the week, you gotta live a little
You don't even drink, I got like 2 days in to whisky and coke till I experienced heartburn as a 20 year old. I was drinking at work and after but still that's just unacceptable.
Soda is for buttfrickers.
I just want a beer after work while playing video games but my alcoholic ass will drink so much I blackout and get withdrawals the next day
Is wine fine?
wine is fine but liquor is quicker
It’s literally poison. Should be pretty obvious that it will frick you up if you drink all the time, especially if it’s trash like beer.
I used to talk to a guy who was an actual viking, he traveled by row boat and ate salted fish. He drank too much one day then he shit himself and his liver gave out. He was 300lbs lean.
I can't socialize without it. at work I'm the quietest person you've ever met and when I'm out drinking I turn into the life of the party and make tons of friends
Learn to drink to get a baseline then smoke weed a shitload once your body can handle the stress. Getting too high then drinking any more than a shot or 2 at a time spells your ruin.
You must have a flask and heed not to the calls to drink in conventional measurements for the folly of man is as such.
You’re automatically better than any of the population that drinks as soon as you stop. It’s poison. It’s a hard drug with worse consequences than other serious drugs. Good job and don’t look back
I like the taste of the stuff
Same haha
>why the frick does anyone drink this shit?
Because it makes you feel good, makes you forget about your worries and anxiety. You already knew this, but on reddit this is how you people make it known that something is stupid. While in reality, when you say you don't understand something, it is you who is stupid
Why ask a question you already know the answer to? You drank, you know why people do it.
Why do people do it
Because it is customary unfortunately
It so deep rooted and normalize and it is impossible to not have a ancestors who drank
How long have you bot been drinking beer? I recently stopped but am still bloated
3-4 weeks you’ll see it go down. but itll take 3 months before youve fully recovered according to most sources ive looked at
Whitepilling. Am on day 5. Already lost 1kg
Will do actually did yestwrday and felt amazing afterwards
Do heavy cardio for a week after you stop drinking
>fermented carbs are le bad
FRICK OFF KETOCHUD
Moderation is key
Tastes good and makes me feel good. If you're drinking enough beer to give you gyno and all the other shit you posted then you're some type of alcoholic. I have maybe a 12 pack a week. No gyno or excessive fat or anything. Figure out your addiction problems
>gyno, visceral fat, and bloated face
what if I have these without drinking beer? should I drink negative beers? how many/week?
You should lose weight you dumb fvck
Gyno only seems to happen on people who get fat after growing up skinny.
Probably from eating like shit after moving out and never exercising. Also on some skinny kids who hop on gear without taking hormone regulators.
Wen from drinking everyday to only drinking in saturdays. I really like feeling the contrast between feeling great, and feeling like shit. Every Sunday without fail I think to myself “holy shit how did I live like this”
You shouldn't drink beer every day. I enjoy having 1-2 once in a while with food or if I'm hanging out with friends but if I drink every day I start to get sluggish and tired easier
fun tho
My cousin drinks only wine and gin. Hes still an acoholic, fat loser. Yeah maybe its worse than other alcohols, who cares. I still think your a pathetic coward whenever i see you drunk. Ppl drink to get rid of their fears. They are cowards. The best thing about quiting drinking was that i dont spend time wit drinkers since then, no joke
I don't fear much, being drunk just feels good, feels nice relaxing after work with a buzz
Some truth in that, I drink a lot, but get tons of sleep and eat mostly meat, cheese and vegetables and still feel great most days. It's a diet for aryan chads.
Been lifting for 1.5 years and drink 4 to 6 beers daily
It becomes a problem when you pass 23 and your metabolism starts to slow down.
t.34 and thinking of hanging up the beer next year.
I'm 31
Thanks for motivation OP. im on day 6 of sobriety and intend to keep going for as long as I can. I look like shit bloated
I have been on so many medications.
Alcohol is still the only think that ever helped with my schizophrenia.
My sex drive is definitely higher when I drink. Not 'while' I'm drinking, beer's usually pure anti-horny for me, but the morning after it's all-systems-go. When I'm off the wagon I can usually go several days without a single sexual thought.
It's because your plummeted test and increased estrogen levels are returning to their baselines the morning after
I never drink. It’s unhealthy. It’s a israeli trick to lower your testosterone
i used to be an alcoholic
but i ALWAYS hated beer, beer is the worst, i mostly drank vodka/brandy and wine
beer makes you vomit and urinate, it is literal poison and more poisonous than any other alcohol.
i dont drink (excluding the occasional celebration with family or so, but never to the point of drunkenness) anymore though, been sober since last year October, and before that Jan1 2022, so almost 2 years mostly sober.
>2 years mostly sober.
That sounds fricking miserable.
I enjoy drinking 0,5 to 1L euro beer most evening.
It's nice to drink alone, at your own pace.
Just switch to 0,0, you'll have the exact same experience of sipping a cold beer without the liver and brain damage. Modern 0,0% taste the exact same as real beer, you wouldn't be able to pick it out of a taste test
>Modern 0,0% taste the exact same as real beer
False, it's absolutely different.
t. tried one this summer
If somebody handed you a normal glass and didn't tell you it was 0,0 you would not be able to tell
No, it really has a different taste.
> drink 0.0
I used to drink 0.0 back when I had a vegana
beet yummy
I just love Belgian lambics lads. I know it must be pure sugar but it's so much better than soda or juice or other beers.
>lambics
Pretty sophisticated, anon.
nice those gnome brews are tasty now and then
tho generally I prefer my funk less sweet
