You can get high or you can not get high!

 

[carbs]

smoking before a workout...fuck i would lose my focus..

but other times-it will increase ur appetite..

 

[BIGBUCK$]

yea even though i dont smoke i wouldnt recommend doing it pre-workout

 

[Advisor_x]

I say just smoke pot all day long..............

 

[holy ghost]

Y Que!

 

[Acela]

i smoke pre-workout ED and i see no drawbacks. keeps the appetite rolliing as well

 

[triggernigha]

read from someguy, when he smoked before training his mind muscle link was stronger and had better workouts.

i personally wouldnt get off the bed

 

[B-rad]

Im training for competion and i smoke a night to calm down. all the tren, masteron, winny and all the shit im taking jacks me up and the weed keeps me level headed, calm. 1 mg xanax before bed also, I sleep like a baby. just two tokes of some purple's and Im all set.

 

[ukkared]

the effect would be different for everybody I would say, but from personal experience smokin before a workout, put the headphones on and I was good to go. Never lost focus.

Agreed... and not just for competition. I'm too old for that but I toke at night to relax. I would not toke before workout as it would take away my focus, drive, and aggression. I don't drink or do any other recreational drugs ( other than supps and cycle). I train hard in gym and dojo as well as am part owner of a technology consulting business. Two tokes at night when the day is over lets everything settle down and slide away so I can relax and sleep.

I personally wouldn't do it before workouts, but later at night I do.

 

[seaking420]

I do it at times before a workout, it can go either way, most times Im more focused, other times it ruins the workout. I do it every night like most people here have said to calm down and get a good nights sleep

i personally think it kills motivation. i kdo know some top level athletes who swear by it claiming, intense workouts after useage, improved sleep and appetite. i still think it hinders instead of helps honestly.

 

[annubiss]

always after !!!smoking before could cause you some focus problems i know from personal experience

 

[702daswoll1]

Love that purple kush. Helps calm me down when Im on a gram a week of test and 500mg of dec@.

 

[motodawg]

Agree back in the day i used to toke-up before my workouts, these dayz i rarely smoke..........but i do keep a small sack for special occasions....it has definite medicinal uses

 

[Papa Lion]

I honestly think it depends on what kind of bud you've got... some can just knock you down, other types can seem to give you more of an energy buzz... but still it comes down to how much you smoke and how your body reacts... I personally don't prefer it before training these days (actually haven't even smoked in I can't remmeber how long!! no pun)... but before training it seems to take some of my energy/motivation... that is to say directly before training... but after it's all good!! if earlier in the day I would just grab a quick nap a couple hours before I go train.

 

[lightemup82]

If I did it it would be after my workout cause I would be to lazy to even lift the weight. I have to get pumped before my workouts and weed would totally bring me down..

Problem is pot raises your estro. So if your anywhere near your show..i wouldnt do it.

A few hits during bulking season to keep the appitite up...I am totally down for!

I always hear this about the risk of raising your estro while on cycle... it's such a minute amount that I don't really think it would be a problem (personally I think it's gov't propaganda )... and about on cycle generally people are running anti-e's/AI's which would counteract any possible estro sides... so it really shouldn't be a concern unless you're an all natty BB'r and even then I really don't think MJ raises your estro enough to be of any harm!! I've never heard of cases of gyno as a possible symptom of MJ use!!

In my opinion weed is way less harmfull then alcohol. All though I like to drink I have found myself in jail for bar fighting. dam i should have smoke a dubbie before i went out LOL!!!

Yep..the head phones are the key. keeps you focused, otherwise my thoughts spin out and I catch myself daydreaming.

U think it will make that big of a difference in estrogen considering im using masteron and winny both good for estrogen side effects.I han't Had to use any anti e since is started the mast and winny.

If your on a show prep cycle, the sides will be reduced...yes it is a very small change in estro and i know plenty of guys who compete and smoke..But me when i compete I dont take any chances. In my eyes its not worth it. Why dedicate your life to a comp and I dont need to go in to details of what goes in to it....and take the chance of Fucking it up by smoking some damn pot. If im going to do it..Im doing it perfect.
