The Monday Hangover following a top stag weekend
After a long and memorable stag weekend Monday is often a struggle, and if you’ve really hit it that struggle often pushes into Tuesday and Wednesday. Let’s face it, a loaded stag do with the boys is one of life’s special occasions but gentlemen, enthusiastic indulgence on the stag weekend can lead to a little under performance for a couple of days when you get back.
So what can you do to avoid the Monday morning drop that follows an incredible stag weekend high? Hangovers are a science, but here are a few (non-medically referenced) in house tips that in our opinion may help …
1. drink lots of water throughout the weekend itself and then from the moment you get back for the next 48 hours
2. have the fridge stocked for when you return home with a some tasty hangover beating grub
3. don’t forget the healthy stuff either, lots of fruit, fruit juice and salad
4. put in your mind a 2-3 day de-tox, no booze, fags, chocolate, burgers, fast / bad food etc
5. decent sleep, try and get at least 8 hours a night for the next 3 nights
6. hit the gym or go for a run, you won’t feel like it but you’ll definitely feel better afterwards
7. try to avoid confrontation, whether it’s the Mrs, the girlfriend, family or anyone else, just take it on the chin until you’re back on form
8. make a list of what you need to do, it’s likely the short term memory may also take a little break
9. and finally arrange to take a half-day or full day off for when you get back
You’ll be right as rain in a few days and ready for the next stag weekend! If you’re planning one, get in touch.
