marijuana

[stevius]

Certain forms of marijuana affects muscle growth indirectly, because in high enough quantities it hinders concentration and ability to perform heavy compound movements such as deadlifts and squats.

Many people can not handle drugs and use them irresponsibly. Commercial forms of cannabis tend to be high in THC and CBD- mixed with tobacco a joint will severely deplete energy and suppress appetite.

(Treat drugs with respect, and/or stay clean if you are committed to weight training!)

You haven't smoked much pot have you?

I read that pot increases estrogen. I dunno - mabye it's not true but if it is I suppose it would not be good for anabolism.

You know when you've had enough, unless you happen to be immune, and thereby dependent. I guess when you've gone down that road, training is only possible under the influence.

Seems he hasn't. The statement roughly translates to: "I don't know jack about pot."

I’m sure you people are growing your own non-commercial super strains without side effects? Is that really possible because it’s all the same in high enough doses…

Alright, so my initial statement was misleading. As a bright-eyed, bushy tailed teenager I might have felt slightly antsy, energized and slightly psychotic after a smoke, but I can’t remember, it’s all a big blank patch punctuated with ash and roaches. This feeling wears off; I’m left feeling numb and irritable; a sure sign of a bad habit.

For the most part people have little self respect if they smoke. If a person doesn’t take great care of their self, chances are they won’t use drugs responsibly. I don’t see many people smoking just a tiny bit, it’s always excess.

Far more often than not, it isn’t the drug that is the problem, it’s the individual. People can’t manage their own desires effectively. If we don’t mind abusing ourselves, it follows that we’re not going to care a great deal about anyone else.

I duuno how anyone can smoke up and then proceed to lift. About all I'm good for is staring at the Cartoon Network with a stupid ass grin on my face.

No, but pot smoked with tobacco doesn't suppress appetite. So you don't know jack about that it seems.

Way to go on stereotyping people. I guess the millions of cannabis users around the world are self disrespecting bushy tailed teenagers.

Finished off with an excellent social commentary. Seriously man, relax. Go have a pint at the pub, whatever. But don't talk about stuff you have no idea about. Don't judge and stereotype people like that, you will be miserable in life.
