I'm not one myself, and I certainly did not write the article... but here's an interesting read either way.

    Excellent article! It gives me hope seeing this type of well-documented facts instead of the usual propaganda. Thanks for posting your find! :smokin:

    I don't see how pot smokers would even have the motivation to go to the gym after getting stoned. I used to smoke and working out was definitely not on the list of to-do's. Chicken nuggets yes. Working out, no. haha.

    there are different strains of weed that cause different effects. There are many jiu jitsu practitioners who train after smoking. It actually increases concentration and focus.

    In to say that I love smoking before a workout. I push myself harder and longer when I've had a small dose. Lazy people are lazy stoners. Active people are active stoners. Can we please stop perpetuating marijuana myths.

    PS. I live in Colorado so I can do what I want.

    You would know the answer to that if you ever went jogging after a bowl. :wink: :smokin:

    Pot is a gateway drug to sugar.

    According to MFP, I'm pretty sure the drug addicion hierarchy goes Pot > Cocaine > Heroine > Crystal Meth > Sugar > Aspartame

    ETA: Those are arrows for progression not greater than signs

    I haven't poked smot since the 80's but am thinking of giving it a try again in March when the pot stores are open to everyone (I'm in WA state and places like The Healing Leaf are starting to appear). Right now it's legal to possess but you still need a prescription to buy it from the dispensaries. And I think I'll hit the food section for infused products rather than actually smoke it. I'm hoping to get more restful sleep and have read there are certain strains that help with that.

    Good article. Personally, I partake fairly regularly and have no problems. Nothing is better than walking/jogging/running after smoking. I find that I am able to push myself further because I just thoroughly enjoy the pure relaxation that both smoking and exercising can provide. At this point, I plan to continue to do anything that makes my weight loss journey more enjoyable (keeping in mind your area's laws, obviously). Just my opinion though. :)

    And for what it's worth - I know plenty of people that train hard, eat clean AND poke smot.
