Since alchohol destroys your gains, what does /fit/ drink when out with friends or women in bars? Water is too boring.

Beer without alcohol, typically.
I used to be a fairly big alcoholic and drunk. Almost four years ago decided to bang it on the head and give up.
These days I rarely ever drink so on the occasion I do have one, I'm not sweating any lost gains.
And my drink of choice for said occasions? Dark and stormy.

Unless you're a professional athlete competing at the highest level, there's no reason other than terminal autism to prioritize a hobby of lifting things up, putting them down, then lifting them up again, over having actual life.

unless you are some recovering alcoholic/family issues with alcohol etc there is no reason to stress out because of a drink or two from time to time lmao

all people (except those mentioned above) i met who "dont drink bc unhealthy/i dont like the taste or effect (lmao)/never tried/had noone to try with/no urge to try" have consistently proven to be the biggest autists and most boring friendless nerds lmao

Alcohol. I am not going to become world class athlete anymore, and 10 beers occasionally won't hurt my physique one bit. Sixpack is literally so easy to obtain, it's idiotic to even think about this stuff unless you are trying to become athlete of some sort.
>>
>>77145554
People who act like that about alcohol use it as an excuse for having no friends gf or life
>haha yeah the reason I don’t hav friends or a gf is because I don’t drink lol yeah that’s why haha

I don't have any friends and I don't know any women.

You might as well go out with a t shirt on that says "beta male"

Thats literally the best reason to drink alcohol as it makes it 10x easier to make friends and meet girls. You are like saying you won't go the gym because you are weak.
>>
>>77145606
But I don't want to make friends or meet girls.

Yes you do. Stop lying to us and stop lying to yourself. Everyone wants a vagina to put their dick in or an ass to put their dick in. Everyone wants friends that help them in life or make them laugh or do fun activities with. You are not fooling anyone.

lol nah bro human beings are social animals. You aren't that special. You need to have a friend or two and you need to hang out with them probably once every week or two in order to have your needs met. And you also need to fuck something.

>what does /fit/ drink when out with friends or women in bars?
don't go to bars
I mostly meet up with friends and make dinner together or BBQ in summer

on the rare occasions I do go to a bar
>alcohol free beer
>mocktails (if they have any good ones which aren't sugar overload)
>tea

when I dated before meeting my wife
I mostly went out for coffee / smoothie / bubble tea (yes I'm an oldfag) for first dates
it's low key, in public (important for women), relatively cheap (important as broke student) and it's actually easy to talk compared to noisy bars
second, third and later dates were mostly active stuff
like hiking, kayaking, bicycle tours in summer or ice skating with a tea on the christmas market in winter
or cultural stuff, but again only coffee / tea for drinks

there really is very little reason to set foot into a bar
like ever

Pro athletes drink too. You don’t need to optimize that hard even at the top level. Just don’t drink too much before a performance. Unless you’re a baller like Kygrios

>>77145429
one of them makes me feel good, the other leaves me financially ruined
I know I will never own a property of any sort, but I'm still coping and saving and investing anyway.

>>77146060
>Pro athletes drink too
really depends on the sport
for most, drinking only during off season
solo sport athletes also drink a lot less than those in team sports

so where individual performance matters more
athletes drink less

>You don’t need to optimize that hard even at the top level
that's a steep claim
especially because alcohol consumption for top athletes went down in recent years and performances are continuously going up

alcohol consumption is probably more a result of societal norms
rather than (non-) optimization
young people drink less today, likely causing the lower alcohol consumption for athletes today

It's not the physical effects of alcohol that bother me at all... A few drinks on a regular basis has negligible drawbacks imo. The acute mental effects (getting drunk) are more of a problem.

You think you're pretty suave and in control after 3 pints but you're not... You're already half pissed and everyone who isn't drunk can tell, women especially. I'd habitually drink much more than that and just end up sloppy retarded drunk. I'm a gregarious drunk, not hostile, but still, it's just counter productive to having a good time. You wake up feeling like shit, out of pocket a hundred quid (if you're lucky) and for what? Hazy memories of stumbling about talking shit to other drunk shitheads?

I could have a few beers socially and will do in the company of my closest friends in a safe, private environment but in bars and public I just drink alcohol free or soft drinks and have much more fun because of it.
Next time you go out 'on the pull' or whatever, try it yourself. The first few drinks you'll feel bummed or like you're missing out, but as everyone else around you starts to get sloppy you'll start to see what you look like when you're drinking and it's embarassing really. See how attractive women respond to otherwise attractive men when they're stumbling about trying to look sober. See how they respond to you when you approach them with total lucidity and sobriety.
Going out and not drinking is a game changer.

>>77145302
I do drink, but just keep it to once a month or less. No point being hyper fit and never leave your house
>>
>>77149829
I can’t imagine anything worse than spending a full night in bars sober. Who cares if your conversation is slightly shitter if you’re pissed, that’s the fun of it.
>>
>>77150176
Ok
>>
>>77145606
this isn't true though. People say that alcohol lowers inhibition, but really it just makes you self-conscious about sounding like a drunk retard. It's fun with friends but to meet new people it's not even that good.
>>
>>77149829
I cant stand being around drunk people when Im sober. I’d rather stay at home sober than forcing myself to enjoy a bar setting without drinking. Getting drunk at house parties or private events with good friends is peak though.

I'm cutting so just diet coke. If I'm at my actual goal weight and I'm going out, I take maybe one or two cocktails before switching back to diet coke.

People have commented on it before but never given me shit for it. But then again I'm pushing 40, at this point nobody pressures me into getting a "real" drink and if they do they're all carrying beer guts.
