    Based on an informal survey of recent posts on a certain fitness-oriented forum, regular marijuana usage has been shown to make people incredibly defensive.

    Yes. People tend to get defensive when you call them bad mothers, lazy slob losers, morons, and addicts. Huh. Go figure. Oh and if you're counting me in your survey, please don't. As I said before, I'm not a regular marijuana user. Just a person who is offended by gross stereotypes and ignorance.

    Depends on whether it is sativa or indica. Pot gives me anxiety an panic attacks, so I do not partake. You can eat it in food. If you understand infused butter/fat, it is easy to do. You can also get a vaporizor.

    Its definitely all about the kind you inhale. It's the same as alcohol, tequilla is going to make you feel different from say, vodka or scotch. I prefer a good sativa plant myself lol

    I don't do it often, but if it's going around at a function I'm at, I'm happy to partake. :drinker:

    Officially dying of laughter.

    but, not for the reason you're thinking.


    Well, that is rather presumptuous of you.

    agreed. people do, have, always will. but i have always found my performance suffers when i'm high so i save that for after. i, likewise, have found my performance suffers after drinking alcohol, even if it's only a couple beers the night before.

    Pot can induce atrial fibrillation. It is rare. It happened to me. It is something I must now deal with. Pot affects the growth of the brain through the mid 20s. This is permanent affect. THC stores in the fat cells in the brain, and impair it's proper function. It is really bad for teens and young 20s. That is just the facts. I see no problem with the occasional smoke around the campfire, or on the holidays. But I have never known a habitual pot smoker that had their **** together. I used to be a pothead. Thought it was the greatest thing in the world. Not so any longer. I see it as an overall negative outside it's medicinal use, which is legit.

    Yea, and I've had co-workers swear that coke makes them perform better too, all the while spouting nonsense and sounding like complete idiots. I think the affect on perception ought to at least be considered here.

    I think it's stupid to take ANY drugs if you're concerned about your health and fitness.

    Well there's the difference. You just said your coworkers act like idiots. These guys are performing at top level.

    I don't smoke weed (cigarettes, yes) but my 15 year old brother does. I make him take DIM because marijuana raises your estrogen.

    I haven't smoked for a few years but I was a daily smoker for about 15 years. I was much more active when I smoked so it's definitely possible. I'd smoke, grab my iPod and go bike riding or roller skating. I actually gained my weight after quitting. I do know it's different for everyone, I have friends that won't get off the couch.

    ^^^THIS^^^
    gained weight when I stopped smoking. Use to weigh 45 lbs less.

    My coworkers were some of the best in the business. The point is just because someone is very good and has the perception the drugs make them better, doesn't make it so.

    I have a friend who does it every day of the week. He says it helps him sleep... it makes me paranoid so I avoid it. But he's in extremely good shape and works out all the time. He doesn't keep any bad food in his house so he doesn't have anything bad to get the munchies on. I don't really see a problem with it as long as you can control yourself... oh and not get lung cancer *cough* *cough*
