    Yes.

    You can't have manslaughter without laughter.

    "Son," he said without preamble, "never trust a man who doesn't drink because he's probably a self-righteous sort, a man who thinks he knows right from wrong all the time. Some of them are good men, but in the name of goodness, they cause most of the suffering in the world. They're the judges, the meddlers. And, son, never trust a man who drinks but refuses to get drunk. They're usually afraid of something deep down inside, either that they're a coward or a fool or mean and violent. You can't trust a man who's afraid of himself. But sometimes, son, you can trust a man who occasionally kneels before a toilet. The chances are that he is learning something about humility and his natural human foolishness, about how to survive himself. It's damned hard for a man to take himself too seriously when he's heaving his guts into a dirty toilet bowl."

          yes you are. think.

          you are altering your body in a negative manner before you are attempting to alter in a positive way. you have all the wrong hormoones flowing, chemicals in your blood are already reac ting to the THC> wait until after.
          your life is an occasion, rise to it.

            Have thought about it, and doesn?t seem to be the right thing. I?ve opted for doing it right after, while stretching in the steam bath... nice thing

              damn your right, but i don't think its like if you blaze the THC nullifies all the shit happening in your system when you work out, but yea, its prob. best to do it after.

                it takes away the pain - so its better for non strenuous exercise - ie you could run longer;
                but bad for lifting heavy weights cos you could pull a muscle or cause a strain and not feel it as much.

                  Marijuana lowers your testosterone levels, which makes it harder for you to recover and grow muscle. Also, it's a depressant, so you're likely not exerting yourself on the same level as you would be if you were sober. You're basically putting yourself at a disadvantage physiologically by smoking before or after your workout. I'd say if you don't want it to affect your workouts, you'd need to avoid using at least 24 hours before and 48 hours after.

                  Psychologically though, it may motivate you to work out in the first place. I know people who smoke because they love lifting, and smoking helps them relax and feel motivated to do things they actually enjoy. There are plenty of athletes out there who use drugs and perform well in spite of them.

                    actually, from what I've heard it "accelerates" your body... uh or your heart. so working out while stoned can be dangerous, cause all you're gonna do is just pump your heart even faster... Something like that.. I doubt you can get a heart attack but it just doest seem right

                    Besides, if Im stoned, working out is the last thing on my mind...

                      Sorry but this is probably one of the dumbest thing you can do. Weed causes you to relax, how does that prime your body to move heavy weights? As Huggie said, you risk pulling or even tearing a muscle, dropping a weight on yourself, or even injuring someone else.

                        Being stoned while working out is an adventure in itself..Pop on the ipod and get lost in it...It's really fun, but probably not good for you..I always liked doing it, but don't anymore..

                          try NO-Xplode or White flood. That'll get you in a state of pumping-iron-rage in no time. if you want to relax, why bother with the gym? why waste a few good hits?
                          you could put an Emfire release on for 2 minutes and you would be a sleep before it finishes - Chunky

                          it's RA. they'd blow their load all over some stupid 20 minute loop of a snare if it had a quirky flange setting. - Tiddles

                              Not good man, the THC messes up all the brain areas that are trying to help you when you gym, motor skills, vision etc, best leave it for later or for that good nights sleep you need

                              The largest room in the world, is the room for improvement!
