Well done, Dave. “Been at least 20 years.” I lost the desire decades ago as well. Happy for that.

No drinks for me 'til after training... I usually train in the evening, even if I just have a singular drink or two at lunch and then you're going for heavy lifts that night... it does nothing but throw everything off, get some killer cramps no matter the hydration and your body just isn't functioning to optimal performance.... so after taking note of how drastically it impacted my performance I now hold off on drinking til after training, never before... Now if you're at home and doing some yardwork, auto stuff, or what have you then knock yourself out lmao but def don't mix drinking and lifting it's just a huge detriment and not worth it!

I've tried a beer before training while in a hypertrophy phase and it definitely helped the pump. Tried it again during a strength phase and it made training feel worse

Add some test to the beer.. it will definitely make you stronger 😂😂

Chris Duffin has said that doing shots while doing heavy lifting has some carry over on being more explosive of a lifter. He’s explained it on mark bells and Lex Friedman podcast

I spent some time in Shanghai and at every gym i trained at, some old guy showed up drinking beer between sets. All the locals said it was the norm over there. I always scratched my head at that.

I love all the questions dave is asking lol.

"....go on." Lol

Holy shit this is the real life Mac from 'sunny in Philadelphia' talking about their invention fight milk; liquor, milk & crows eggs.

This guys awesome haha

Arnold talked about taking a keg in the woods & drinking & training,,, also The Saxon brothers loved their beer

Years ago I had an old guy tell me to drink one before a workout and I would get a great pump lol. This was before pre-work out lol

Dave doing good helping an alcoholic giving him some limelight

Jesus, his liver and kidneys must hate him 🤣🤣

Drinking on gear fucked my blood pressure so bad lol I can only drink like once a month during a cruise or medium dosed mild blast.

Pisarenko and Rigert drank Vodka and smoked a cig between sets and so are we. HAPPY NEW YEAR. 😁

I love beer but I don't think it's good for the muscles at all if it's not moderate lol I drink everyday though, but just a bottle a day so it's not much

I think someone better consult uncle Dom about this topic seeing he approaches thing with science. Bro science….🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫💪

Ive had some of the best workouts of my life blind drunk. The next day isnt great though haha

5 time national champ Mark challiete drank beer because he said it relaxes you and therefore you recover faster.

There is something to this as Sumo wrestlers have done it for centuries. Beer is a HUGE staple in sumo diet.

Dave is so buzzed, lol.

Hops is a potent phytoestrogen. You don't want beer, you want gruit.

For me, more than six beers, I can only train for one rep. Because my resistance drops real fast

Vielleicht könnte man das Gespräch auf deutsch übersetzen, vielen Dank

Smoking weed as pre workout does help I think, it definitely leans you out and you can ignore pains and really push yourself. I have used it that way for many years with success, but you won't see the injuries coming when they do.

Not judging but alcoholic? Or just his thing for social media. I don't know him.

Well a beer is like a steak 🥩 in a bottle.... Is about the same amount of carbs...lol

BEER ME!!

There is a caffeinated beer, or at least there used to be....I can't remember the name.

Trinkt ihr richtiges Bier mit Alkohol oder ist das alkoholfreies Bier ?

The incredible lesson here is that even if you do a ton of shit wrong & actively sabotage your own gains, copious amounts of steroids will still slap some muscle on your body. Hopefully this guy will find his lost brain cells before he gets too drunk and crushes his neck under 315lbs.

I would have beers while training in my garage (2 at most)... Doesnt do anything, pos or neg. Now if youre 6+ -deep, yeah, no thx...
