Exercise on cannabis

[RhythmSpring]

Hi

I've noticed that various psychedelics help motivate me to exercise--not only that, when I exercise on, say, mushrooms, it's a lot more productive. I end up feeling and looking noticeably stronger afterwards. It's pretty cool!

Has anyone else experienced that?

And has anyone experienced that on weed, too? I've heard of one person taking weed and going to the gym, but when I'm on weed I get kinda tired. And I forget things, which sucks. My brain doesn't feel totally present.

But, maybe if I exercised, I'd feel more present!? Maybe that's the missing key? I dunno. Maybe I should just stick to the psychedelics. They feel more clear-headed. But maybe there's something to this weed thing.... : P

i get into some good exercise flows with weed. a lower amount of edibles or smoking is good.

getting a bit stoned and doing some light jogging is fun for me. be careful if you are out in public cause i guess it's possible to space out and cars are super dangerous. watch out for kids flying by on E scooters too. how people deal with how quick they respond ymmv with weed.


i've been smoking weed and walking and doing tai chi for like 8-12 miles a day for a while now. i do yoga/physical therapy for another hour or two.

if you smoke pot and feel tired, try out yoga. could be good. not for everyone though.


i think the dude in the movie american beauty smokes pot and lifts weights. i heard some people do that... idk. i always thought if you don't like the initial stimulation of the buzz, maybe lifting helps the intense stimulation subside and you just ride out lifting till the initial high wears off and then you have the relaxing end of the high to chill out. not really sure. probably some people's vibe. i just get into tai chi flow with weed. weight lifting is too much work for me. as i get into a loose muscle tia chi flow, weed makes some people tense. everyone is different. if you are getting tired, you're probably not the type that weed makes super stimulated. maybe try some sativa for exercise. strains don't matter to everyone, but they can be a game changer for some.
