I may just be setting myself up for ridicule but screw it. Since I don't like to drink i smoke pot on occasion instead. I have never noticed any adverse effects as long as I do it after I train so I'm not lazy. In fact it just help me eat more that I need to. Anyway I have looked far and wide and never found any proof that it has any adverse effects on muscle growth. Cardiovascular maybe yea sure but hell in MD they actually a had a study that said that THC helped prevent lung cancer(yes prevent). Anyway I was just wondering everyones thoughts and any informative research you've found.

Be a pothead or a bodybuilder, cant be both.
Not to mention this topic has been beat to death on this board and a myriad of others..... use the search function.... -
I'm not a pothead. I smoke very rarely. The only thing I have found with credible evidence is the effect on your lungs. Countless studies have shown that people who smoked all day still showed normal testosterone levels. It really doesn't matter I guess cause as long as it is illegal the government will lie about it all they feel(steroids anyone?).Comment

Have you researched how it affects your estrogen and why it causes you to be hungry?Comment

makes people lazy, removes motivation, can cause gyno, memory loss, and smoking is bad for whole body.Comment

If you do recreational drugs, smoke cigarrettes, or get drunk you have no right calling yourself a bodybuilder, period. We try to take our bodies to the next level, not destroy them. Articles that defend marijuana are omitting a lot of negative information to justify stupidity.Comment

Sorry metal marty but I disagree with you. Ever hear of Mike Mentzer? He smoked cigs and ate whatever he wanted because he is a bodybuilder, not a health freak. And I happen to know tons of bodybuilders who used to do way more shit than the OCCASIONAL(once a month maybe) pot smoking. And I wont name names but there are top pro bodybuilders who are known to party pretty hard. Reading magazines will even tell you that.Comment

After reading your posts so far, you ask and discuss so much of what a average person has to deal with. Do we know you? No. Do we need to? No.Comment

Well, considering that about 1% of the world falls under "elite athletes", which is inclusive to bodybuilding, and youre on here asking about smoking weed, Im going to assume no... dont flatter yourself.Originally posted by AxHartford15Comment

I'm not gonna even argue with you yellow because you look like every scrawny idiot I see in the gym doing biceps everyday and couldn't even compete in bantamweight. You wanna bash drugs because of the not even proven information? Then show me some proof and I'll acknowledge it. No one has shown me credible proof yet. That's the whole reason I started this post because I am skepticle of what people say the same way I am about what people lie and say about roids. Why don't you start bashing steroids the way the the media does because that is only fair. Everyone is average. No one is special. That's where hard work and knowledge comes in.Comment

No I was simply trying to find information since none of the previous posts really addressed it with any kind of information or link or anything. Yea I love to hear YOUR opinions and criticizms(sp?) and that's why I am here but it still isn't proof. There is no need to get bitter about a little playful arguing.Last edited by AxHartford15; 03-14-06, 01:37 AM.Comment
