Does being high on marijuana help athletes perform better?

1. I run with a water bong. Highly effective and hydrating.

2. Yes.

3. sports were made to distract the public from what their government’s are doing. This has been done since Ancient Rome, probably before… it’s sad. Wake up and read a book instead of watching people throw some ball around (well you are drinking beer and gambling) you know, stuff that’s way worse than cannabis.

4. Cannabis makes my life so much better.

5. Yes, it makes reactions faster and enhances focus. Also relaxes you so you make better decisions in split seconds.

6. I can do zero exercise when high, and I like to exercise.

7. I take a dab before I workout and I hit the gym 4-5 days a week. I bet a hell of a workout, it makes my muscles feel stronger so I can get more out of my workout. It also helps me dial into my workout and focus on JUST that.

8. Yes

9. I was a runner in 60s-80s in S Ca…Ran 3-5 miles 5xs a week for fun. A meditative experience…I got into "the zone" after 2nd mile…Used 420 now and then but definitely for 10K races or marathons. Ran many events to raise $$$ for various Human Rights causes.

10. Depends who,shut up now

11. Cannabis should definitely be considered a PED when it comes to competitive eating

12. Investing in Bitcoin now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.

13. This is unwise. To teach an athlete that they need a controlled substance to be successful teaches them to rely on a drug. Not a good idea!!

14. Does it matter? It helps my grandma have her appetite an helps her with pains that's what really matters..

15. Cannabis is illegal so hemp can also be illegal. Hemp grows wild while replenishing the land with nutrients and requires no pestiticeds. It was the million dollar plant in the slave days but industry needs product. Hemp makes better cloth and paper than cotton and trees, pulp. We use to make canvas, oil, containers but plastic makes more money bc you cannot own a plant. Cannabis has been studied for 4 decades by many countries and proven you cannot overdose or die, it is not addictive and has none of the harms alcohol has, organ damages, angry behaviour and idea you are more than…cannabis in oil form is a healing process good for liver and blood. Very different high calming which is good for Parkinson's, cancer scheme sickness, encourages eating for anorexias and saves children from dying with epilepsy seizures, reduces them within a day that no pill could do which also means can stop all the drugs needed for the side affects for drugs. This competes with big Pharma which takes plants to make pills that kill so cannot be on the market..even their marihuana pill is now a street drug..sick society of big business wins common sense and ppl loose.

16. Bruh runners high you mean adrenaline. That thing everyone has. It's just not a running thing.

17. * Hello American citizens, in this time all us should is asking for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris impeachment. Both are destroying USA and each day more this country became much more vulnerable!

18. It makes me feel like a sack of potatoes.

19. I mean, it's gonna depend on what sport we're talking about. If you're a competitive eater I'd say it would give you a decent leg up. I have trouble believing it is gonna make you run or react faster though, regardless of what the data says. I've never known anyone to speed up or react faster a fat J.

20. I will say that the things i like to do (guitar, drums, bass, bike riding, motocross, fishing & so on..) it really seems to help me connect. It sort of makes things more “intense”.

21. People are getting high and enjoying exercise. This is exactly what fat 🍑 America needs! 🇺🇲

22. #PrayForAmerica

23. Well going high

24. Decriminalization

25. No it doesn’t, it only make you chill, sleep a lot, eat a lot.
    The weed we grow that name ganja he doesn’t
    Your weed that you make in labs do. It’s just made with a lot of drugs.

26. Massive respect to this man & abc for giving him a platform. Granted you should be vaping whole plant extracts & not smoking, it's not the stone age.

27. Um. No.

28. you cleary don't use marijuana , should you really be writing a book about it

29. I am a medical marijuana patient. I have MS and I always get high before I work out. It allows me to Mentally tune out the pain, keeps the foot cramps at bay and I'm Mentally tuned into every movement and endure through it.

30. This is interesting and something I've never considered. I'm not an athlete but can attest to the fact that a small dose, used in moderation and not combined with schedule drugs, works wonders for my chronic pain, whereas highly addictive and risky opioids do not. Also, edibles don't kill your lungs or give you cancer.

31. I'm sorry, but if an athlete who is high beats their opponents, that's not the athlete's fault. If anything, that's like giving the other athletes a handicap.

32. People should let people use weed if they want to.

33. Yes

34. It helps in competitive eating.

35. For me I get a good mind muscle connection when I lift weights, on the down side I get tired fast and I miss the bench when I go sit down.

36. If everyone smoked a blunt every now& then the world would be a better place

37. vae.fyi
    
    pleasurable

38. What many people don't tell; is that there are people you don't want to be around—before, during or after using cannabis. It is actually a conflict of interest to be around these people—sober, drinking alcohol, or using cannabis, at work, leisure time, on vacation…etc. There are some people that are annoying and irritating regardless of my mood or state of mind.
