The holding hits debate, regarding VAPOR

[StickyfingahZ]

I thought your lungs only absorb so much oxygen/smoke etc. per breath?
Your lungs fill up with oxygen and distrubute to throughout the body returning it with carbon dioxide which is then exhaled right?

well guys and gals, all i know is that i got high after my friend took a hit off a joint and then exhaled/blew the smoke into my lungs.

That's right. The THC in smoke isn't absorbed 100% as soon as it hits your lungs, it just gets absorbed quicker than vapor. With a quick exhale of vapor, you'll lose more THC than with the same exhale of smoke.

I believe that,but I was thinking your lungs sorta close up(not taking in anymore)once you stopped inhaling.
Maybe from when I used to snorkel,I was told to pump my lungs real quick for awhile before taking in a deep breath to go down.

Your mean the lungs aren't absorbing any more vapor once you stop the inhale? I don't know. Is there a doctor in the house?

As for pumping your lungs when snorkeling, I think that's to get more oxygen in your body so it'll be a longer time before your lungs demand another breath. I've done the same thing while vaporizing, in order to take a slower, deeper hit and hold it longer.

Thats what I been doing as well,When I take a hit,I sorta let a little out and breathe back in and repeat.I do feel higher,but not sure if its because of a lack of oxygen.I aint a doctor,but I remember reading in my brothers Personal Trainer books about the Lungs taking as much oxygen as the body can hold.The stronger your lungs get the more oxygen you can hold or take in.I remember it saying something about that being why people who are unfit or long time smokers or just people who dont excercise are gasping for air,because their heart and lungs arent as conditioned or as strong as a person who has a well conditioned set of lungs and healthy heart.
I guess,if that is true,If I become more physically active and become fit,my lungs can absorb more oxygen as well as thc per hit....right?
But if your holding it in....I guess the vapors have to go somewhere.Once it's in your system,its in your system.lol
sorry,im high,if this doesnt make sense,its okay.
The vaporizer does a good job of getting you there,lol

(ghosting= when you exhale, theres no smoke whatsoever left)

I guess you mean vapor. We sure don't want any smoke from a vape, first hit or last.

hold it in... Why would it matter if you get more carcinogens anyway... theres so much worse things you consume everyday.. don't worry about it unless you have respiratory problems now
