I just remembered tanning lowers your immune system and there are other possibile considerations that I have not researched. My concern is that with the immune system lowered one's body will use alot more resources and take away from muscle and building of muscle. Anyone ever doing any research on this?
haven't heard anything like that but i tan after training atleast 4 times a week and i haven't noticed any negative effects from it
Tanning should help if anything as long as it isn't too much. Especially if it's from natural sunlight. Sunlight increases the body's leutinizing hormone(LH) levels thus increasing testosterone levels as well. Sunlight also provides vitamin D which is an anabolic hormone in it's own right.
I dont think tanning is going to affect your gains!..Otherwise guys like Arnold and the boys would have been tooth pics,with all the outdoor working out they did down on muscle beach...
It won't hurt your gains but it will hurt when you get melanoma when your 35
I don't understand how tanning (especially in the wintertime when there isn't enough sun) can be bad. I love it and I feel like a million bucks after I get done.
And it's not GAY!!!!!!! I'm so sick of fat asses laughing at me when I tan. Don't they ever look in the mirror?
