Was having a discussion with some friends today about lifting and smoking, they said it can help you because you don't get as tired easily, however for me I just feel weak. Was wondering what /fit/ thinks about smoking pot and lifting.
Smoking weed and lifting heavy don't go together.
However doing situps, pullups, and dips are more comfortable doing while high.

It's interesting. Not worse or better - just different
>>34856238
Smoked a 2 sheeter before i went to the gym earlier and had an incredible session desu senpai. Did my main heavy lifts then did like an hour of arm work before i realised how long i had been there, i just went into my own world and was really focused.
I love it for running, but Idk if it helped me any for lifting. I care a lot less about form and such when I'm high so that could be a negative. I quit smoking a week ago though so it doesn't matter much for me rn.
>>34856834
What's a 2 sheeter? Is that related to dabs or flower?

It's well documented that cannabis has wildly different effects based on the individual who uses it. It makes some people energized, it makes some people tired. It makes some people hungry, it curbs appetite for some people. It really depends on your personality and mood. I wouldn't even necessarily recommend trying it out, a lot of people get really fucked up off the weed and this can lead to accidents. If anything, get stoned the night before and try lifting in the after glow. This works for me.

I would suggest vaping weed instead of smoking it, that way you don't fuck up your lungs
>>34856238
I always like to smoke after I lift, (I lift at night) helps with appetite to make sure I eat a huge meal and then restful sleeps. I could never work out high though, too much loss of dexterity/motor skills. Might cause an accident or get hurt.

I bought a vaporizer after years of bong smoking and I can't recommend it enough. Best $80 I spent this year by far. Gets me as high as my good bong but smells a ton less and doesn't make me cough my lungs out.
>>34856238
Been lifting 5 years, smoking on and off throughout. It can be fun before but also uncomfortable. I only smoke after a workout and eating because it's very relaxing. I also have medical reasons etc. To each their own.
>>34857559
I own 3 vaporizers and feel exactly the opposite, as do some of my friends in our friend group. The vape high is just not near as intoxicating to me. I end up going through more for an effect that still isn't quite as good as a bong
>>34856238
general rule of thumb is you can do anything high just as well as you can sober if you don't psyche yourself out

Marijuana desensitizes and downregulates neurotransmitters leading to anhedonia and lack of motivation, which causes depression. In other words, brain damage! Maybe not permanent, but still damage.
Smoking decreases natural Growth Hormone levels, as well as Testosterone levels slightly. Still smoke occasionally, but smoking all the time is bad for gains.

WEED

But I love my Dad.
I did this once. Got super side tracked and ended up taking 2 hours to finish my workout. No noticeable strength difference but it was if I could feel every muscle moving and contracting while lifting.
I wouldn't do it at a commercial gym, but I lift in my basement so I can do whatever I want.

Which one is the top? Clearly you have to fight the dominant one.

>This faggot doesn't have daddy issues
>>34856238
what you call "being high" is what i call "sobriety"
so from that skewed perspective, i find it to be completely compatible with heavy lifting.
i don't really have a control, as far as i don't know, i don't think i have ever lifted weights without significant amounts of phytocannabinoids in my bloodstream.
so my opinion perhaps doesn't translate to anyone..
>>34857279
i think it is a joint that requires 2 papers, but i am only guessing.
when i hear sheets, i think acid.

FUCK OFF AND KILL YOURSELF YOU BRAIN DAMAGED FAGGOT

i started late enough to where it didn't affect the development of my hippocampal tissue.
and there are no permanent (or even longterm) neuropharmacological (or really any other physiological) detriments to a fully developed adult safely ingesting cannabinoids in a manner that doesn't artifice any PAHs
>>34856238
It always caused me to quite lifting cause it makes me lazy. Just don't lift high. Smoke afterwards. Not rocket science.
>>34859612
it always caused me to lift a few more reps because i could push through the pain, because my muscles felt amazing because i am high.
also you shouldn't consume smoke of any kind, anon.
hydrocarbons are no joke.
dude weed lmao

Don't smoke before a workout. But Smoking after is fine imo.
>>34857559
do you have any recommendations for vaporizers? Kinda tired of smoking joints
>>34856238
I lose my drive to grind out heavy reps but I can zone out and do more work overall with moderate weight. I dunno. Not so bad as long as you don't just let yourself vegetate.
>>34856238
Weed is for retards. It burns your lungs and makes you act autistic.
If you want to try drugs, get into acid or dmt or maybe shrooms.
These will help you understand your own mind and yourself. Don't trust any "revelations" you have, these are all bullshit, but the trip should be a wild ride far far far beyond the limits of anything you could possibly imagine.

If you live in a country where you won't go to prison or be killed for possession of cannabis, you experiment with it at least once.

is that so?
>>34856238
I would NEVER lift while high again. Had a BAD experience while benching. I was lifting and basically zoned out while lifting 50kg for warm-up and the bar fell on my chest. It's like for a second my mind went: "Wait a minute, you're supposed to be lifting a weight, not thinking about whatever the hell you're thinking right now!".
I'm not sure hash caused me to black out but it certainly made my heart beat 1000 bpm while that shit was happening. Got scared and with good reason.
Now I mostly make sure at least an hour or two have past since I smoked. But I always lift first thing in the morning, so smoking a bowl is mostly a post-workout ritual.
Taking a shower feels like cumming blood. It's a bittersweet pleasure that gets me in the mood to face the day. Strongly recommended.
>>34859085
I can totally relate, I have a $150 pretty nice vape and a bong thats ~3ft with 5 perks. Unless I need to be discrete I choose the bong 10/10 times

All potheads are weak, don'tcha know?
>>34856238
I never lift while I'm high but I'm definitely a heavy pot smoker.
I also used to be a heavy pot smoker and had to quit for a year, I've started again since then though.
Honestly no significant differences between being 100% clean and smoking every night.
But that's just me.
Breathing an unfriendly smoke into you lungs. Nothing about it is fucking healthy. When will you puddis realize that marijuana is fucking bad for you. Of course it has some benefits but at the end of the day its smoke going into your lungs. I smoke weed, maybe once or twice a month and i never try to fucking defend it, i know its bad for me.
