boy your serrious about this..... :hmmm:


If you were really trying you could make the time. Its all about how much you want it.

[infiniti1982]

lol

making my own sounds good. but the faster the better.

i will look at "up your mass" what brand is that?

i cant wake up earlier. im in college and have 8 o clock classes. and i get out of work 3 out of the 7 days of the week at 2-3am. and i party late into the mornings once a week. see the problem? and i cant change the work schedule, thats how it is.

I'm gonna stand up for the guy here. I still think he's really dumb and all, but I'm in a similar situation with early classes, two jobs, and balancing a social life with bodybuilding. Sleep is very important to the both of us and I can understand him not wanting to sacrifice even 30 minutes.

That being said, I have been able to do all these activities and eat well and train hard. So it can be done.

Though I'm often late to class...

i can see the problem there man, ive been there in the past but gotta make time for things.


The party eeeeeeks. I also party once a week but when i do i always eat my 6-7 meals a day. Even if im on there with my buds late, i always find something good to eat. I cannot stand it with my stomach growling, and knwoing that im missing out in a meal.

Why not try to adjust your classes next semester, we got about a month more to go or so for school. I used to hate that shit back when i first started college, had a tight schedule but i pulled through.

for those who are against my 1 day of partying a week. im sorry for you. with work/studying/gym, i NEED one night to party; i think its a healthy thing. i am not a bodybuilder going into competition, i am an athletic college student trying to get a little stronger for when i get back into sports, and a little bigger for the ladies and self defensive/pride purposes.

you guys make it sound like i am not dedicated at all, and calling me a fat lazy fuck is far from what i am. I was in the gym today for 2 hours. i lifting sessions are always atleast an hour, usually 1.5 hours. i eat healthy, not the fast food fatty hamburgers and fries or steak everyday like a lot of u fathead clowns. I eat a lot of Chicken and fish, usually always over the beef/pork. and i try to drink as much water as i can remember to as well as fruit juice like orange juice.

tru, i dont eat as much as i should but for a 165lb, 5'10.5" guy that is very busy, i try atleast. 3 BIG meals a day atleast with the supplementation of 120 grams of protein to make sure i dont lack in it.

Classes, i dont choose when i take them if the only time for the course is at 8am. i do always try to make as late starting schedule as possible without going to far into my afternoon. 10 or 11 o'clock classes are my favorite to start the day.

anyway, thanks for those who share info freely. i do use the searches. but i dont have the time to to make Weightlifting 101 my 6th course of the semester.

Awsome, more excuses, training and diet problems. Alot of us are very busy, but it's about priorties. If it was easy, anyone could do it.

Bro, I think your intentions are good and not lazy or whatever other people might want to say. One night of partying is perfectly acceptable and I would think theres something a little off about you if you were a college student who was not a competitive bodybuilder and refused to drink because it might hinder your gains. Drinking once a week (or even twice...) will probably not dramatically hinder your gains, especially if the drinking is done on days you dont lift. That's what I personally do, and I see great gains. And my genetics aren't anything special. Some of you grandpas out there (no one in particular, im just saying) might object to him drinking and trying to 'get huge' at the same time, but you gotta remember we can put on muscle much more easily than you guys. alcohol won't affect us as dramatically as it might you guys. also, we're in college. give us a fucking break.

I'll tell you what your problem is though. You are really dumb. No, not just ignorant of proper training and nutrition (which you most certainly are), but i believe you probably have a really low IQ to boot. But come on, meat heads are supposed to be dumb, so whatever. What you need to do is understand the fact that you and no one that you know around you (your roommates who use Muscle Juice or whatever the fuck its called--who are probably just as dumb as you) knows anything about putting on muscle or taking off fat. Go to a bookstore and by a good bodybuilding book (ask for recommendations on this site first though) and learn for once. Then you will see why you should never eat poptarts, why you are likely not eating enough, and why being proud of a long workout is really really wrong.

I didn't mean to insult you or hurt your feelings with the above, I'm just telling it like I see it so that you see what's going wrong with your bodybuilding endeavours.


Good luck, dumbass.




(just kidding, buddy)

One of my best friends is in college and barely drinks if any and is normal. But glowalla, think more realisticly. He's in college and does his "one night of partying late". You know damn well he will throw an extra night in here and there more often than he would like to admit. All the stuff he laid out for us is the primary goal for his training and diet. With as much as he complains about not having enough time, how often do you really think he sticks to it. We have all been that age once and it's nothing abnormal, so it's easy to read between the lines.

[JUICE]

...

[Severedties]

AHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

That is all I have to say to this.
Glowalla, regardless of what you say. Drinking hampers gains, regardless of who you are, how old you are, or your level of training. If you are making gains drinking once a week, you would be making better gains if you were not. You will not find a single person who will argue with that.

That being said if one were completely serious about what they were doing and knew of a way to certainly increase gains, they would take advantage of that. Drinking has no place in a bodybuilding regime, especially not once a week.

[infiniti1982]

Sure it does, but could you quantify its negative effect? Sure, drinking heavily would noticeably hinder gains, but having 5-8 drinks once a week has made no difference in mine. Comparing a period of months of no drinking in my life (2.5mos over summer) with my life now (drinking once, maybe twice a week), there is no discernable difference in my gains. Diet was the same as it is now, training regimen is of a similar type, no more fat gain. What's the only difference? I'm having more fun now than I did when I was dry, I'm being more social, etc. This is in no way saying that alcohol is needed to have fun, though. I'm just letting you know the advantages of drinking a little outweigh it negligible effects on lifting.

Do you say that drinking once a week is not compatible with lifting because when you drink once a week you make shitty gains? If that is so, well then I'm sorry your genes aren't as good as mine. If you are saying this just based on some untested assumption, I encourage you to test yourself. When you told me a year ago that I needed to eat more, having never done so in my life, I thought I would just get fat. I didn't want to listen to you at first, but I soon gave in as you remember and saw that my preconceived notions on how much I should be eating were wrong. I underestimated my own metabolism. Here, you are overestimating the effects of drinking a night a week.

Also, as I am not and do not plan to be a competitive bodybuilder, there is no reason for me to take all of this as seriously as it would be necessary for them to be. I can live a life and not have to be completely obsessed by my time in the gym. Isn't that healthier, especially in a psychological way, than cutting myself off from everything that may or may not effect my lifts in the gym

[Severedties]

Not being able to hit the gym with 100% effort the day after is proof enough for me. You may not think that the decrease in your progress caused by drinking is significant or is out weighed by the good time and "pyschological health" you garner from it. Others though would disagree, myself included, the detriment is there and if it is possible to prevent it then they will do so. You choose to have a good time once a week over the progress you could have because of it. I on the other hand would rather make that progress.

We are not arguing whether drinking once a week is detrimental to bodybuilding, we are arguing that it is worth it.
I believe it is not.

[BBAddict]

Forget all the psychological and enjoyment arguments--how about the chemical effects that alcohol has on your body-most importantly decreasing test, which is immensely important to building muscle.

Agreed, to each his own. Everyone has their own preferences, goals, etc.
