How strict are you? Post #1 | | Member

Ok then, im still fairly new to this site, altho i do alot of reading on here, not alot of posting.
So here is a little question for all memebers  How strict are you with your diet and workouts
This time last year, i was as strict as ever with myself, eating nothing but quality meals, didnt drink alcohol, and even if i didnt feel up to training, i still had a light training session. But with the past year, ive been out more, drinking more, late nights and it reely killed off my strength & my body shape. So i feel like im basically starting all over again, but this time, im not going to be as strict and enjoy a drink or two when i feel like it.
So lets see how strict people are, and any stories similar! |

My wife and I had a conversation along these lines the other day. I am perpetually "getting back into my routine." Life always takes us out of your workout and meal schedule. Weight lifting is not our life. Our family and hobbies are our lives. Your success in doing this thing for the long term will be contingent on your ability to get yourself back into your routine over, and over again.
Having said that, I go through what you are talking about every 6 months or so. Because I've been doing this for a while, I recognize it and just make the proper adjustments. | |

one needs to experience life, but you must also decide if you want to train or be a pusser? I am very strict to most people's standards> I don't eat fast food 'cause it's expensive and I can buy 2 pounds of chicken for 1 Wendy's triple. But we do go out once in a while and I throw back some beer. I just don't do it every day. BUT I am also 46. I used to drink 5-6 nights a week and still went to the gym. I just have gotten all of my partying out of my system, LSD, Schrooms, X, Coke, Beer, booze etc. I would do it all over again though in a hearbeat.
Point is...just be smart. I was luck and never got a DUI. Times were a little different 20 years ago. | |

Are you having any re-feeds on a weekly basis? That might help keep you in check month by month. | |
