Yeah well, that is true, but I was willing to at least try it out and see how it felt. Let me say this, I was completely against it at first. My best friend nagged me for over a year to smoke a joint with him and go workout, and for a year I told him that I wasn't going to do it because it seemed silly.
Finally I said yes just for shits and giggles, and I was blown away. I thought I would be lethargic and lazy, but it was the exact opposite. I was more motivated and focused. My intensity was off the charts, and my endurance was better. Pumps were more intense, and my forum was improved because I was more aware of my mind and body connection.
It was a complete shock, because I went into it with a closed mind. I never told my buddy that he was stupid for doing it. I never made of his decisions about his training, I just didn't think it was something I would do. But after, I felt like I had just been given a great tool to aid in my training. Once I learned to control the munchies, it was a perfect supplement.
I later decided to try smoking weed and doing other things with surprising results and not so surprising results. I found pretty quickly that most things requiring complex cognitive abilities suffered: going to class, doing homework, solving puzzles, remembering where I put something. Most things requiring motor control and hand eye coordination improved dramatically for me. Disk golf, real golf, and rugby all improved. I have talked to many other friends about this and most of what I observed seems to be common to us all.
It defies common assumptions. All I have is anecdotal examples, but with a complete lack of hard evidence, anecdotes and personal experience are better than baseless assumptions.
Gaba has a relaxing effect too but does have studies to prove it is beneficial preworkout. Just saying, maybe someday someone will study it's effects and prove it to be beneficial.
Point taken. This isn't the first time I've let stereotypical views hinder some open minded thought. Old ways die hard I guess.

1. What was the original Claim? go reread my post and tell me where I claimed something.I'm not "defending my friend", I don't even know this guy.
You're the one who made the original claim here and have YET to defend it.
And as for the 2nd quote.
I was calling bullshit on the random old dude (probably brainwashed his whole life) who tried to come in and talk shit, but also like you, didn't defend his stance. And instead made an appeal to "common sense".
Well you know what? Common sense 150 years ago in this country was that blacks were inferior to whites, and they were our slaves.
So tell me, how common sense is a good thing Mr. Merkaba?
Reps to KelJu and Merkaba strickly for entertainment value. Because without a double blind study This is just one man's opinion against another's.
I'm not reading any of that until you re-read my previous posts in this thread and actually comprehend what I said. You are in defensive mode and I have never seen you be so retarded before. I had no idea you were such a fucking pussy that you would lose your mind and revert to broken English and smiley abuse along with losing all reading comprehension ability the moment someone challenged your opinion.
Jesus, I'm self proclaimed lunatic, and even I can maintain a certain level of coherent communication when aggravated.
This discussion, which is a discussion that I would like to have, about training under the influence of THC has turned into a train wreck. I don't know know if it can be saved at this point.
If you are willing to allow for us to hit the reset button on this shit and restart from scratch without the gay ass faggot flame war, I am willing.
I take bodybuilding too serious to put anything in my body besides healthy food and high quality supplementsalcohol and weed are a waste of my fucking time as far as im concerned, been there done that.

Seriously one of the best Cd's ever!
Yes.
Working out stoned is not bad. I used to do it all of the time when I smoked.
looking good bro (no homo) how long you been training?
Thanks. I've been working out I guess in some capacity since C team football which wouldve been about '88 ish? haha...I wouldn't really count that. I'm 35, been working out more seriously since 94 when i went to college. Been working out "smarter" for about the past 10 years. Never touched anything more than creatine and caffeine.
good work man ten years ago i was 13, i got along way to go son! i wish i had stayed naturall to be honest ive been a fool with drugs all my life and took gear without even a proper year diet and training under my belt.. wot can i say lifes not fair ive done what i done now and im not lookin back..
Training "drunk" is hardly recommendable, but a little alcohol in your blood may be beneficial, and we are talking about 1 - 2 beers, not more. Personally I have also noticed higher energy in the gym the day AFTER some heavy drinking, it feels like energy levels are higher than normal for some reason...
And why is a little alcohol in the blood beneficial? What biological process did "nature" miss out on that didn't get us primed up enough to be able to get a proper workout without having ethanol in our blood?
