    ETG Alcohol Testing
    Hey I'm wondering what is your experience with EtG test and how much you drank passed them? So a buddy thought he was done with all his testings and the next week on Thursday night he drank 2 four lokos and Friday night drank 10 beers 8-11pm then he was told he has to do one more EtG test on Monday witch he took at 6 pm today. It left him with 68 hours since the last beer he drank, he runs 4 miles a day and work out really hard about 2 hours a day and go to sauna and steam room right after, and he does this everyday, he is in really good shape and weighs 163 and is 5' 11" he also has a super high metabolism I'm wondering what are his chances that he's going to pass? Thank you, I will report his results also

    He also said he drinks about 1-2 gallons a day for body building reasons

    Why isn't your buddy asking this question if he's the one that's so worried? Or is this really asking about you. Sounds like a hard core bromance thing going on otherwise.

    Funny... everyone with a substance abuse problem thinks they have super fast metabolism. Seriously... all my years on this site not once has anyone ever said they had slow metabolism. I can't even remember the last person that thought they have average metabolism.

    Incidentally... you don't sweat or excrete alcohol out... it has to be metabolized through your liver. And drinking that much a day... without being in the Saudi Desert makes a fail much more likely.

    He would have taken the test yesterday, he should know within the next few days if he (or YOU) passed.

    How did your (friend's) test turn out? I suspect that with 68 hours, the chances are fairly good of testing negative. Fast metabolism, running, working out, sauna, steam room etc, drinking 1 - 2 gallons of?? A day and all the other B.S. are just that.

    You are probably in the clear on this, as well as your friend.

    That is almost at the point I was in my depths of alcoholism... just sayin'. One drink every 15 minutes was average for me. Just something to think about... or not. Good luck to you 'both'.

    @Luck0rN0t 1-2gallon a day of whiskey, haha jk, but no, of water to keep muscle production at its prime. It has been almost three days he went to his last treatment group the counselor said nothing about failure I'm guessing he passed but it will be for sure if he does not hear by next week ill keep everyone updated so people have future references of situations like these, and yes I guess both of us kind of have a drinking problem we both just like to drink kind of a lot, but we never let it interfere with work or anything important in life and its never a priority or "have to drink", yes passing that test was important and was a up thought it was over but somehow there was a surprise test at the end, thank you for your input
