started running/working out

[suhl]

yeah, getting high wouldnt help with working out, helen keller could tell you that

[LazySmoking420]

Ever human is different. I wouldn't tell you that it was beneficial unless I've experienced it with my normal work-out routine. For me It does feel great lighting weights high.. You feel more upbeat and driven, And you cannot feel the burn as quickly or as much...Which has made me stronger. Trust me. I have no reason to lie to you people.

When I get on my bike I like to smoke first, it allows me to get into a cadence,eases the muscle tension,relaxes me so I can get the ole cardio going. there is something to be said about this. when I smoke the miles fly by!!

and wowwwwwwwwwwww am i in badddddd ass shape lol. i just ran not even a mile and im wheezing so bad and coughing a lot. i just wana get back in shape a little bc since high school ended i havent played a sport in 2 years. any of you other stoners out there work out?

I lift weights at home when i can be fucked. I do push ups likewise. I just played football for 2 hours and 20 minutes straight... i'm fucking exhausted and now i have to go to work. Oh well, at least i have some beautiful cannabis awaiting my return.

I agree with bucknuts.

I do get high before working-out, but the only reason is because I have cancer. My veins are damaged, so it's excurciatingly painful when doing certain free-weight exercises and cannabis helps me reduce that pain.

Otherwise, I'd work out sober. You'd be a lot more productive in the long-run and you can lift far more in the long-run. But doing power-lifting techniques, smoking and work-out can be dangerous.

I repeat DO NOT GET HIGH BEFORE YOU WORK OUT. If you do, yer an idiot and I'm gonna drop a plate on yer head if I see you being stupid at the gym. Plus one of the best things ever after a real hard lift when you can barely pick up your water bottle and your sore as fuck is sitting down and blazing a bong load and having all the pain and soreness disapear.

EXACTLY

"Ever Seen the back of a twenty dollar bill.....on weed?"
LMAO

I could see burning one down before a nice jog I guess. I take a few hits before going on a bike ride, but never before working out. Not because it makes me all stupid, but because it's smoke. Smoke makes it hard to breathe and you need all the O2 you can get when lifting.

I do that every day, the mix of endorphins and blazing is one of the best mixes ever. Flopping your ass on the couch and hitting a bong is okay but you feel like a lazy bum when you get tired and burnt later. When youve worked out hard it feels way more deserved

If I smoke before I go to the gym I hurt more and lift less, although I feel like I'm doing a lot more work. I could see it being helpful if you have arthritis or something like that. I do agree that it could be a big safety concern esp. if you're spoting for someone.

[lagstronaut]

To the dude going crazy over smoking before lifting: from personal experience I am unmotivated to work out at all. When I smoke, I suddenly really enjoy exercising and all that. Maybe you can lift less or something if you're high, but for me I have to be high even to want to BE there. So in my case, WEED HELPS
