Is weed a performance enhancing drug?

OK so we all know weed has the power to allow you to focus intensely, so for those of us out there who are physically active i believe its a performance enhancing drug!

Me personally I sometimes smoke before I go to the gym and im just so focused its nasty. Now i do take caffine with it and possibly some yohimbine or ephedrine but damn i love smoking and hitting the gym.

Whats everyone think? :joint:

dude.. depends on the strain, sometimes I can't focus for shit.

I think its analgesic properties and ability to make people sleep would be more useful for performance enhancing.. not to mention an appetite stimulator.

i totally agree. I dont really like sativa, but i like something thats 50/50 for when i workout. .... now after i workout i love a nice dank indica to help with consuming cals and with calming down and sleeping.

I just posted about a guy in the itenirad don't know if I spelled that right but anyways dog sledding. And he kept winning and being a open pothead the other people in thew race demaded he not be able to smoke pot and be in the competition, pretty silly especially since it's legal to grow your own personal mary J in alaska and they aren't even piss testing the dogs :bigjoint:

Maybe in a food eating contest yes than there is some unfair advantage but than again if you think your losing because you don't smoke pot, fight fire with fire know what I'm sayin?

it wouldnt surprise me if it was performance enhancing. i know that it helps me think clearer and quicker, so i learn new things at a faster rate and retain the knowledge a lot easier.

i lose my drum beats so fast because i think to far ahead and then just lose track. last summer smoke 3 joints 2 hours before a baseball game. kid threw an 87mph four seemer that seemed to hit the glove before i even knew he threw it. weed kills ALL my ability to focus on sports. love it though, lol

When I play golf, I blaze up in the parking lot beforehand and two or three times on the course. I don't do it to enjoy it, just to enhance it. I enjoy walking around in nature more and don't get anywhere near as angry at bad shots. I tend to detach from the results more and just focus on feel and process. These are all good things in the world of golf.

Definitely a performance enhancer in my book

yeah that is true, apply weed to most things and you're less stressed about results, you just enjoy the ride lol

I played soccer before the team fell apart but when i went high i would score the nicest goals or make really creative plays. i dunno i think it just opened up my imagination and i would try shit i wouldn't normally try. and i guess being in the zone
allowed me to pull it off most of the time.

I do think that it will only work when you smoke and play your best sport, the one you've played all your life. it only works on soccer for me, i fuck everything else up.

This is funny you bring up this topic.

I use to go to a Big Ten school. I use to smoke with some of the bball team before home games sometimes lol. NOT gona say what school... but wouldn't be hard to figure out with a google search :D. I couldn't imagine how pissed off the fans would be if they knew they were blazed out there on the bball court.

My highschool Drug tested. So I never had to opportunity to blaze up before a Volleyball match. Sometimes ill go to my college practices high but I dont like playing in matches high since I'm never consistantly in the zone. I do enjoy poppin a couple vicodins before a match to limit my chronic shoulder pain.

I'm a professional jazz musician. Herb and jazz go together like peas and carrots. It definitely enhances my experience every time. I don't need herb to get to that magical "place" (think ego-less creativity/expression), but it is easier to get there when I'm high. It also prolongs the high so smoking a J before a gig could last me several hours.

The father of jazz, Louis Armstrong was smoking on the herb. He even played songs about it. Many jazz musicians back then did the same. That's one of the reasons it's illegal now! The white folk didn't look to kindly on all those pot smoking Darkies who were having a ball and stealing their ladies away. What better way to make their life miserable? Make their drug of choice illegal!

Enjoy your Booze-Day today, Whities.
