jazz1 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 just getting back into training and my traineing partner who is 18 stonnes told me to try guinness, i have to say it feels so good while drinking guinness and training:). Anyone tryed it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl_S Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Two things here, If you fancy a body like your training partner then maybe he is right, If it makes your training feel good then what is the harm? Of course if you are badly drunk and train it could be dangerous, for example dropping a dumbell on your head, or messing up a spot for your training partner. What are your goals for your training and what kinds of training and equipment are you using? Maybe it's not to do with fitness at all. On a personal note, I have found that drinking a lot of guinness had made my motions loose and dark. But I think that is only when drunk to excess.

Scott Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Guinness is one of those few beverages that has enough vitamins and minerals to live off of. Granted, it wouldn't be ideal but if the only thing you had to eat/drink was guinness you would survive. How many pints are you having? Is this before training? I can see some advantages, especially the placebo kind, as long as you don't go overboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I'm confused, what exactly did you "traineing partner" tell you to drink Guinness for? To put weight on? I know you've had a quest to bulk up for a while despite clearly having the wrong genetics to achieve the body shape you crave but is Guinness some miracle solution to this? When are you drinking it? Have you questioned why Guinness would be the drink of choice over anything else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I find lager is an excellent aid for weight gain If its for weight gain, just stop going to the gym. Use the money in McDonalds or Burger King instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 no u just thought i try it out seeing as i kept getting lazy no going back into it, first time i tryed it for a laugh not bad though:) Has the "baton of stupidity" been passed from Coolsblue to jazz1 in the past 24 hours do you know? I appreciate he's now drinking Guinness to add the madness but his writing standards seem to have dropped to an all new low. I let a few people out of the dungeon as part of my New Year tolerance drive but I think it's time to put them back again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Not only that, he has managed to avoid every question for the reasoning behind doing it. That could be considered as politically clever though. Ok, maybe not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Im 17 stone and I think the way forward for weight gain for you is calories. A high calorie ,high protein ,high carb shake 3 times a day will put some serious muscle mass on you if you train really hard. Something like Dorian yates pro mass.It will work even if you have a super quick metabolism thats the kind of people it was designed for.Fook the guiness off,only thing you are likely to gain is a fine beer gut lol.
