The Benefits of Working Out Stoned

The Benefits of Working Out Stoned

Ending the prohibition of cannabis in the US is still an ongoing process. Thankfully, many states have begun the process and that means more access to better quality cannabis products. With all the options available to us as consumers, many people have starting experimenting with different forms of cannabis to see if it has a positive impact on areas on their life where cannabis may not have had a place in the past. One great example of this is the growing trend of pairing cannabis with exercise. They may seem like an unlikely pair, but the advances in cannabis tech have made it much easier to get before you lift, without straining your lungs. Read on to find out some of the benefits of hitting the gym, high.


SAFETY FIRST

Obviously, we always want you guys to be safe, no matter what you’re doing. You don’t ever want to go to the gym when you’re baked out of your mind - you could have an accident and hurt yourself or someone else. Any experienced stoner knows that more weed doesn’t always mean a better high. Less is more when it comes to your gym time; you only need a small amount of cannabis before you start to experience the benefits weed can have on your workout.


THE BENEFITS OF WORKING OUT HIGH

It may surprise many people to learn that weed affects your body in other ways besides just getting you high.


GREAT ADDITION TO AN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE

One great thing about living in California is that you don’t even need a gym membership to work out or stay healthy. No matter where you live in the state, you have access to some of the best hiking, biking and walking trails in the country. Outdoor activities abound here in California and you know what pairs amazingly with an afternoon out hiking in the beautiful California sun with your homies? A little bit of cannabis. Especially cannabis that’s not going to leave litter on the ground or smoke in the air. Our energizing Sunkissed Disposable, made with Tangie and Mowie Wowie, is the perfect pairing to an afternoon in the sun, whether you’re hitting the waves or tackling the trails. 


GREAT ADDITION TO AN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE

But if the gym is more your speed, cannabis can help make gym time a lot easier too. One of the biggest ways that cannabis can help you out in the gym is through its anti-inflammatory properties. Inflammation can happen all throughout our bodies and when it comes time to go to the gym can make moving or working with weights painful and difficult, but a few puffs from your BLVK Label Cooks Ahoy disposable will have all your sore muscles and joints feeling refreshed and ready to go.

Cannabis’s anti-inlamatory properties also help with recovery time, the critical rest period between strength training workouts when your muscles are growing and healing. Without proper recovery time you can overwork your muscles, cause an injury and end up out of the gm for months.


IMPROVES FOCUS & MINDSET

Anyone who’s ever spent any significant amount of time in the gym knows that it’s mind over matter 100% of the time. Some days, we’re too wrapped up in other parts of our lives to focus the way we should in the gym. Studies show the best thing you can do to deal with stress is to exercise, but sometimes, when you’re upset, or have a lot going on, it can be hard to focus on your workout. Cannabis can help with that. Small amounts of cannabis can help improve your focus and really lock in at the gym. An hour of cardio is a lot easier after a couple puffs from your BLVK Sunkissed or Hakuna Mimosa vape; it’ll have you floating into the gym and ready to lock in and put in work without a care in the world.

Working out and getting fit takes a lot of time and dedication, and it can be really easy to get discouraged when you don’t see or feel progress as fast as you think you should. Lots of people drop off after less than a month in the gym because it’s daunting to stay dedicated, and even harder when you’re not seeing results. But a little cannabis before you hit the gym can help ease your mind, and put you in the right mindset to stay dedicated. Cannabis makes people much more introspective, so use it to help you condition your mind to understand that the gym time is about the journey, not the destination. Cannabis can help you to be more patient and less frustrated if your progress plateau’s or you start to get preoccupied with what the people around you are doing.

Working out won’t help you do anything but lose weight unless you support your routine with the right foods - and a lot of them. Making serious gains in the gym requires a lot of food, sometimes more than an individual can eat on their own, and weed can help with that too. Cannabis is a reliable appetite stimulant, so hitting your Cooks Ahoy disposable pen a little bit before your workout will have you ready to pack in the protein when you’re finished, and help your body refuel and re-energize, so you can go hard again next time.
