So me and the guys at the gym where having a conversation about smoking pot and working out. So some guys seem to think smoking pot increases testosterone. I mean smoking marijuana expands blood vessels no? why your eyes get blood shot? SO there for could it give you more stamina longer harder stonger? i also understand it increases estrogen. anyone with any knowledge care to shed some light on this subject?

and where not talkin about the fatties who smoke and eat and play xbox

Not sure about all that. I usually just want to eat some dorritos.......

Amen Brother!!

Smoking pot as a sexual stimulant?

How many reefers did you and the guys have before you got to this momentus discovery?

Isn't buying Viagra just cheaper and less illegal?

I don't think there's any physical benefit to getting high before you work out, but there can be a psychological one. There's competing evidence but it definitely leans towards a higher production of estrogen, so it's actually more important to get regular exercise if you're a regular smoker.

That being said, I love getting high and then working out until I can barely stand. By then you're totally sober and it feels absolutely amazing.

*Note - Do not try to learn new Jiu-Jitsu techniques stoned. It rarely goes well. Haha.

dont know about longer or stimulant but definately calming an relaxing so you can enjoy the time together instead of being so uneasy an have fun an yea have some snacks while you hang out with her.

and lots of it:)

it reduces your sperm count and motility

i know for sure that it gets you high... not sure about the other aspects of it

several good reasons that it is thoughtful to NOT smoke and work out

HR increases 40-100% and it causes changes in blood pressure, loss of coordination, sleepiness, and impairs cognitive functioning

all medical facts that users try to deny.....just like any other drug user with any other drug

I'm like - go ahead invite lung cancer....but at least be reasonable and use it with full acknowlegment of the issues and don't do anything stupid....

that's asking too much

to be honest i smoke before i workout ... reason why...i hate cardio and it actually helps me focus and JDI..(just do it) ...i kinda just get into my music a forget about what im doing .... so in a way it help we workout longer... i prefer weight training.

BUT I ALSO PLAY XBOX! LOL

I have been an athlete all my life and I just can't imagine...but of course I was training to compete much of that time so I could not afford anything that would affect my judgement or cardio vascular system as my work outs put a lot of strain on that anyway - when I was training I was maxing out my HR for 1-2 hours and above target to max - I could not afford to b on a substance that would add any increase to that. And even after I was not longer competing I still trained that way out of habit. I listen to music on long distance runs to pass the time

a lot of people need to experience and find out themselves instead of what they read and or listen to becuase a lot of it is bs because everyone is different. u need to educate yourselves :)

Yeah I agree it depends on personal experience...I am a regular jogger but I don't think I will be able to finish my normal miles if I am high...it just made me want to stay still coz my mind just went crazy wondering around etc. O_O. (I lived in Holland for eight months).

idk why but it hasnt effected me i dont think.. i was a running back in high school and my grades are good. idk but it fuels my mind i think and work much better high because maybe it does something to the way my mind is set up? its somekind of mind thing that can filter out my mind or something idk but ive taken test very high knowing nothing about the subject and have passed a's and b's. my high i want knowledge and to learn or fuel myself somehow its nice. ive been patient in washington for many years.

Yeah it has same influence on some of my friends. But to me no, it just basically really turns me into a stone. Lol.

haha thats always fun!! and also there are so many stains for so many thing to help u with and different effects. being a grower it gets scientifical or something its fun stuff like a scientist uahahahaa!!

Hmmmm well I have no idea what it's like for the bloke, but after having an ex who smoked the stuff and I didnt , i have to say if it was good for him, it certainly wasnt for me, honestly do you really think any women who is not high wants some dopey goose wanting to maul her,
Hmmm well it can at least teach us good acting skills

So if you think it might work, at least try it with someone else who is using it, that way she wont have to pretend you are doing a good job

i guess i'll quit working out...
