Hey guys... i hear weed lowers estrogen, which probbably affects people in training... Can someone give me a little more info about if it would fuck someone up in good training and diet...
 
thats what i meant... lowers test.. i dont know about the bitch tits, so im guessing its not good at all when im in serious training...
 
there is no solid proof that weed dose anything like that other than the lazy bit but thats down to the person the type of weed smoked(indica or sativa)
smoking anything is not healthy
 
I come from a long line of pot smokers, although I have never even touched the stuff. I can attest that it makes men narrow like a woman and bitch tits. All true!
 
Well maybe im just paranoid but 1 month after a cycle i started heavily smoking weed and previously ive had no signs of gyno. But my nipples got puffy and i got a tiny lump in each. I was taking nolva the whole time... I dont care if it was the weed or not but my weed days are over..i think it raises estrogen for sure

weed wont effect your hormonal levels enough to ever notice anything. the biggest problem with weed and bodybuilding would probably be that you don't get REM sleep with weed and that is something needed for recovery.

Excellent point, well said.
 
im sure ill get flamed for this but i dont give a fuck. i smoke everyday, hell i smoke on the way to the gym and as soon as i leave the gym and ive been doing this for years with no problems. it gets me focused before i go in and it gives me super concentration. when i leave it relaxes my muscles. and i dont smoke bullshit weed either, i smoke the trams aka THE TRAUMAS and i love it. also helps when im bulking, haha

I THOUGHT THAT WAS FROM THE CONAN MOVIE :p I LOVE THAT QUOTE

I initially saw it as a Conan quote also, after reading the original Robert E Howard's Conan. Somewhere along the road, I came across some reading about Khan. Mr. Howard just took a great quote from a person of the past and made it Conan's, which was pretty slick, IMO.
 
Alright, I have been smoking for 5+ years at least once a day. Although I do NEVER smoke before a workout. This has not hinderd my progression what so ever, and if it has, I'm the next ronnie coleman. Screw studies, listen to people who are the real thing, It's easier to bulk when smoking, and at night its easier to get to sleep. I guess I havent had "proper" sleep for 5 years heh, In that case I dont think its necessary then :).
 
There's a confounding variable here. The problem is simple: there are studies that show that marijuana lowers testosterone but they haven't been consistently replicated.

The reason they haven't is simple: the United States government (and this is not a conspiracy theory here, it's a fact; look it up if you don't believe) has had a hand in the studies that "demonstrated" cannabis lowers test levels.

They're widely regarded as political B.S. by the modern medical community.

In short: pot won't lower your test. Like the man said before, Arnold smoked cannabis and hash and even did it on tape.
