[n8ive_stylez]

How many of you out there actually use marijuana/smoke pot, while your out doing ur bodybuilding routine. And do you believe it has any effect on your performance?

Thanx for the input..

To tell the truth, i do occasionally smoke little bit. On the weekends i do smmoke more. Weekdays i dont really smoke at all unless i cant sleep at all or i just need to relax. I dont think it really affects my routines. As long as i dont smoke before a workout or smoke in the day couple of hours before a work out i feel fine, i wouldnt think about smoking if i had to work out. If you can controll your "munchies" if you are cutting. If you are buling then maybe the "mucnhes" can be good if you are eating the right foods while munching. I mean comon! ARNOLD WAS SMOKING A J-Bird in pumping iron and look at him! lol.

Im not saying smoke all the time, but little joint, blunt, bowl or however you smoke once in a while shouldnt hurt. But hye remember everyone is different.

LMAO.. Arnold was burnig in the end of "Pumping Iron" huh.. I've never really noticed a difference in my routines while smoking pot, jus a little harder to get off my ass and go to the gym.. But I do find it alot more relaxing to smoke a joint after a good workout, and then heading out to get some food after that..

A little weed aint gonna do a damn thing either way.

Lifting WHILE your baked might affect you in a positive way, or a negative one. Depends on the individual.

If you're smokin at any other time you can pretty much characterize it the same way you would a glass or two of wine.

Some strains of pot can and do raise your heart rate/metabolism for short periods. How that factors in I'll leave up to you.

I’d be more concerned about the effects it has on my lungs. If you don't need to use it for medicinal purposes, then don't smoke it. If you need to relax, then meditate. In the long run, or the short, it will slow you down.

I smoke and as long as I make sure and munch clean when I get the munchies, I find that it goes well with my fitness lifestyle, both in that it helps me to get in calories(usually meat) and to relax and sleep after a good workout. Plus being high is fun!

Ive been smoking chronically for 4 years. It shouldnt make a difference if you already have a tolerance for it. If you have anxiety issues it helps with your appetite but you may become dependant.

Here's what I usually say...

"Smoke Weed, but dont let it Smoke You!"
