Working out on d-amp?

[rollingstoned!]

I'm 19 and I'm prescribed Vyvanse 30 mg (around 7 mg released throughout the day). I weigh 130 lb. I was wondering if anyone has experience working out (lifting not running) on amphetamine. Is it significantly dangerous? I also smoke around 7 cigarettes a day fyi.

probably one of the most catabolic drugs out there.

It's not dangerous. I workout on 126 mg concerta daily.

I've worked out on dex before .

Everything was fine but my heart was beating too quick

I don't mind it at all. I don't use d-amp very often though. I have also worked out on meth.

I think it's pretty dose-dependent, at some point it's going to be uncomfortable to exercise if you are stimulated enough.

I maybe a little off-topic, but when i was using tramadol(200-300mg) and day after i sit and meditate in lotus posture i was good, but a week after i had bad pain in my knee. I had same symptoms when i showed lotus posture to my girlfriend after a night dose of a 100 mg amphetamine. It was very easy to sit in this posture for a 20 minutes and do some crazy stretching. And it turn out to bad pain day after.

Never, never do something with stretching while on amphetamine!!!

theres a difference between a therapeutic dose and the dose you used. 30 mg XR doesn't sound dangerous to me. Why don't you ask your doctor?

I used to get whispers and hassled when working out on Dexadrine. My bodies impedence (energy) would go down a bit.
I know for certain it was some jelous asshole that doesnt understand the decency of telling someone "real nice. looking good etc etc".

It will get you exausted much faster, your heart and lungs will struggle to keep up. I would imagine it's bad for your heart, but I have done it before. Took adderall and vyvanse for years.

Lifting lacks the sustained cardio load of...well....cardio training, so you're likely fine. If you do cardio, please keep the dosage low and do not try to push toward max exertion (ie, do not interval-train). There will be synergistic cardio-strain with smoking.

If you keep the dose low im guessing you will be fine. I have worked out abit on a really low dose of 15mg's dextroamphetamine and i was ok. All the same a few times when i really binged on it i felt like i was having a heart attack just walking around.

Another thing to keep in mind is that amphetamines often surpress hunger and it's pretty important to eat a decent meal or two post-workout if you want to build muscle mass.

What time of the day do you typically lift?
