marijuana effects on weight lifting

Guest · Guest

Well I agree with the last quest statement. I have been smoking marijuana since I was 14 and I'm now 23. The only thing marijuana has ruined in my life is that it cost so damn much. But as in panic attacks and tripping..no that only if your a pussy or have some kind of medical issues that makes you have attacks. yes marijuana can make you a little paranoid and a little forgetful but that is only while high on marijuana. It really depends on the person if you are a looser who doesn't care about anything than when you smoke, you will still be a looser. Me personally I love to get high before I work out, it makes me work out harder and it gives me the MUNCHIES so I gain weight. I'm in college and make all A's and am soon to be starting my own business. So i recommend everyone try it a few times the first time is kinda intense. PLUS study shows that marijuana smokers will live longer than non smokers. You decide....

i smoke weed every day, sometimes several times a day. i also work out 5 days a week. i wake up at 5:20 every morning, take my dogs out, pack my lunch, kiss my sleeping husband goodbye and go strength train for an hour before going to my full time, on my feet job. I lost 40 pounds just eating cleaner and working out all while smoking weed.

working out makes me feel strong and alive and it makes me look good too. weed makes me feel chilled out and lucky in life and love.

the key to everything is balance.

peace

anybody who says smoking cannabis has any effect on ones life or personal health or whatever. if you have will power or any kind of personality that wants to make something of your life then theres no problem whatsoever

to all readers and posters saying "weed F***'d my friends up" all your friends are wastemen who obviously didn't want to make anything of themselves

any bellend can diss someone or their habbits but nobody cares because timeless films such as (alice on wonderland) were made by trippy people on LSD and the such, anybody who is anti drugs can shut their holes until they try it because you don't know what your chatting about if you've never tried it, don't be thinking its all bad coz thats what your told... bunch of simple minded children...

It all depends on person.

I wake up 5:50 Mon-Fri to school, Have A-B Grades, Workout 4 Times a
week and jog occasionaly. I smoke pot every other day or usually after
I finish working out and doing the things I have to do. I must say, weed
hasn't made me any lazier and has def. improved my size. Eating much more to gain mass is tough and thankfully I have some uber munchies
when smoking. Just make sure to eat the right foods. Other than that,
Im healthy, run my miles under 7, and lean.

Only time I wouldn't suggest it is when: studying for tests/exams, at work,
or at school.

I just quit smoking like 3 days ago after doing it every day from when I was probably 15 to now (i'm 22)...I know about all the studies, I was a complete stoner and wrote quite a few papers on the legalization and decrimalization and all that pointing to various studies.

Everybody's a bit different but I basically quit because i'm in a tough spot in my life where I'm turning a page and I think that after all this time, maybe see what its like without it...I can safely say that my testosterone level is definitely going up already (yes, a study recently came out saying that if you are a habitual user, teens as young as 17 were found sexual disfunction and impotency, not releasing the right amount of testosterone to the body), i'm starting to gain a bit more weigh and muscle mass now after being very skinny....together with that, my head is starting to clear a lot and my complexion is better, you can not say its good for your skin...smoke in general is not good for your skin, youre crazy to think otherwise.

Saving more money, im more active I guess now, show more interest in things, sure i might poke again once in a while, not daily now, nto by any means.

One thing I guess I would reccommend and I have no dislike whatsoever to stoners, I never could or will....just go to a sperm bank and have some of your sperm frozen. You dont want to find out later down the line you cant have kids because of it. Just my 2 cents.

Well first of all the is way to much bias on either side of weed. Dont call it marijuana because that is the word that was originall addopted from mexican farmers and soldiers by harry anslinger the first drug czar in the u.s. so cannibis is the proper term or skunk or funk or what ever you may. The fact remains that if you smoke weed and have no motivation, you must have had motivation problems to begin with.

Too many people nay say it because it IS illegal (for reasons that are not justifiable.) Some runner actaully use it for expanding lung capacity and oxygen use. I smoke before i run, or workout. I run or work out when i dont smoke too. In a rastifarian kind of way you can use it to gain concentration in a meditative sense. People dont have the time any more to sit and go into a meditation, that is where cannibis comes in handy. When you smoke some of that weed it helps you to get your brain to that alpha wave state. The state of dreaming and meditation <-----and that is proven. cant call me out on that one.

It is a plant with so many possibilities. Not in a recreational from but in an industrail form and medicinal form.

Bottom line if you use it in a responsible way and you feel it help improve the quality of YOUR life then dont listen to the chumps about it making you become pathetic and poor.

As for the homie who became broke becasue of it. Maybe you could have grown your own or just not smoke as much of it. Or buy some kills either way you should be continuing to smoke it.

Oh and by the way cannibis has anti-tumor properties to it also. and people who smoke weed and tobacco are 50% less likely to develope lung cancer.

Peace to those who blaze up, and peace to those who dont. Im sure we can get along right.

I would say weed is one of the best things to do if you want to get big.
1. Listening to music when I'm high fires me up like no other and I workout better when I'm high.
2. If you can control them, the munchies are the best thing to have after a long day of sqautting, just make sure your eating moderately healthy with loads of protein and carbs, with minimal fat afterwards.
3. After I lift, smoking makes me go from soar to feelin good.

I've also never experienced any bad long term effects other than the occasional short term memory loss.
Just make sure you don't get ripped off your ass at the gym, just a nice high.

PS - new research suggests that smoking weed has no correlation with increased risks of respiratory cancer. mydesert.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080412/COLUMNS26/804120315/1026/news12
