I feel stoned after exercising...?

Your burning fat, THC is stored in your fat cells. THC is released into your body when the fat is burned off and you get high. It's not crazy its how it is! Working out makes your cannabis use more efficient!
 
I feel that cannabis can be just as sedating as opiates if you believe it will be, just as stimulating as opiates and just as psychedelic as opiates(the nod) It can also have just as much pain numbing properties. I can get all these effects from weed when I smoke it and that is why I've loved it so. I started on heroin when weed wasn't getting me high anymore because I needed that high and heroin forced it onto me.

I believe weed will give you just as high of a high as any opiate if you maybe are feeling totally loving about the whole experience, or maybe just in the right mindset/mood. When weed didn't get me as good of a high I always remember it was because I was either depressed or I couldn't form a opinion on thoughts that would come up during the high and they were hard to ignore or worrisome in a way or two.

Ya this is making a lot of sense to me because exercise sometimes gets me that high high and sometimes I feel pretty normal it's all about loving yourself unconditionally as you are doing it I'm pretty certain. And if weed and exercise give me a high as strong as injecting heroin could if I was loving enough then sense I've always heard your natural opiates are released from ONLY PAIN and not exercise and pain is a self destructive energy just the same as opiates are they make you numb and force you, and try to teach you to not like/want pain(because then you'll only want more pain just like getting addicted to heroin) But learn to accept it for what it is.

Opiates have the intense energy peak of evil that you think is good but overall opiates will cause you to experience more pain then any high it will give you in the long run. As we all know evil energies corrupts slowly if you give your focus to the thoughts whereas good energies will show you what they are but wait patiently for you to see that it is really them you crave. I really do believe more and more that everything that makes up the universe is made out of spiritual energy either love/fear or good/evil and material things like the floor are obviously very weak that they don't effect you much but people and drugs can be intensely strong energies where the love will advance us spiritually in the next life and fear will weaken us.

Then again pain might cause some other receptor site because if the molecules are too large from exercise to get you any opiate high, would it release different size ones from pain? <3

Also spin: I remember reading back in the day THC only gets stored in the fat cells once it turns into an in-active form so you can't get any high from it later.
 
The metabloites will not get you high. It's the byproduct that they can detect in your urine. I think the THC in your fat cells is not the metabolite but THC itself.

Can you substantiate this in any way? I provided a source that explained this phenomenon with actual lab results showing that it was anandamide. If its THC, I'm sure the phenomenon is documented somewhere, and if not, where are YOU getting it from.... ?
 
Not to derail the thread, but...
The endorphin theory had several problems, the most serious being that endorphins are too large to pass through the blood-brain barrier that border-patrols your gray matter. And if something can't get into your brain, it can't make you high.
Do opioids not have to cross the BBB in order to be analgesic? If not, why don't we just use loperamide for pain management and stop using narcotics altogether?

Opioids do cross the BBB - even loperamide does except that most of it is exported back across it by P-glycoprotein so at therapeutic doses it produces negligible central effects. At much larger doses it does produce classic mu agonist effects.
 
^My question was: how do endorphins alleviate pain if they are not centrally active?
 
The article never said they are not centrally active (nor did I). When you exercise, β-endorphin is released into the blood from the pituitary gland and once in the blood, can not cross into the brain. Aside from β-endorphin, other types of endorphins and opioid peptides are produced in the brain and remain in the brain and produce analgesia but I don't believe exercise impacts the production of these.
 
Aaaah right, sorry I was being dense. I was visualising them being released outside the brain (where I don't know) and having to cross the BBB in order to reach it. I think it was just an assumption engendered by only really ever thinking about the BBB with respect to exogenous drugs.

However, I think my objection to the argument is therefore valid; the article claims "It cannot cross the BBB, and what can't get into your brain can't get you high", which is a moot point if the substance is released directly into the brain.
 
the body doesn't have any cannaboids, try smoking a joint of marjiuana trust me it won't feel like how you do after you exercise.

This is invalid, your body does have natural cannaboiods, that is why we have cannaboid receptors stored in our brain.
 
1 endorphins
2 you must have weak ass weed highs if that small endorphin rush feels like being stoned on weed...
 
^ check the 'yep' link above. Its like everyone is stoned in here or something, damn.

I have heard a lot of people mention this before. So I AM assuming that there has to be some correlation. Man I am getting lazy with my posts. Thanks for calling me out lol.
 
As the article I linked mentioned, it was the prevailing theory since the '70s so its become a meme and people don't question its veracity. When someone did question it (due to the BBB issue making it IMPOSSIBLE) they easily proved it to be false and found an alternative explanation that lab results supported - that the endocannabinoid anandamide levels in the blood increased during strenuous exercise.
 
Some really interesting information in this thread. I got a great answer to my question!
