started running/working out

I am not going Brittney Spears crazy or anything but c'mon now guys. I love getting stoned, but there is a time and a place for everything. To the people who disagree and say it is beneficial as it "motivates" or "energizes" them. Your delusional, you need to take a break from the pipe and realize the world doesn't revolve around getting high. I am a pothead, but not a biased pothead who thinks weed is the end all be all cure for it all. Get high but don't get stupid people.

I can see if you light up before a bike ride. But if you got 405 on the bar, and your on your last set couple reps of your last set, you can already barely breathe, you feel lightheaded, you felt like your legs would give out 5 reps ago, you need all the power, energy, oxygen, and stamina you can muster, and I am sorry, nobody has shown me any credible evidence that weed can possibly help you IN the weightroom. It would HURT you in that situation, you need all the air your blacked out lungs can handle. The burn, you want to feel that, that means your doing it right. If you don't feel the burn your not lifting enough weight and/or not doing enough reps.

Why not reward yourself afterwards with a nice session when it actually IS beneficial than be the token(no pun intended) retarted pothead who thinks weed can help him do anything. There is a time and a place for everything, learn some self control, don't be so delusional, and don't be so biased about the herb. There's none so blind as they that won't see....

So with this theory if I sniffed down an 80 OxyContin and went to the gym I could hulk it out like Arnold right? 80 OC is about as powerful a pain reducer as you can get besides the real thing or the 120's. This theory is bullshit, your logic is bullshit, and you my friend are talking through a haze of thick smoke that is clouding your thought processes. Unless you have joint pain, the pain you feel from lifting is a GOOD pain, it means your doing it right. That pain is in your muscles, don't worry, they'll come back stronger than ever later. Sometimes I just have to sit back and realize that weed effects people in different ways. Some people it doesn't really change their overall personality that much, they just like gettin' high. Some people it makes them DUMBASSES.

So what?

If someone smokes before they go gym thats there perogative, it MAY energize them, each person is differant is all this place only about people disagreeing with other peoples posts like crazy these days? Theres no comprimising. Personally i'd never get high then go to the gym but thats my opinion it aint got shit to do with no one else,

LOVE PEACE :)

Buck I agree with you but one thing I do know is mind over matter. If it puts someone in a certain mindset it may be beneficial for a workout....only mentally though. It will without a doubt hurt you physically...that science fact.
