The Buzz Around Working Out High

Enhanced Focus and Mind-Body Connection

Some users report heightened focus and a deeper mind-body connection when working out high. This can lead to more intentional movements and improved exercise form.  

Increased Creativity in Workouts

Ever feel stuck in a workout rut? Cannabis may bring out your creative side, and might make your routine more enjoyable and engaging. It’s time to ditch the same old reps and sets for something a bit more outside the box.

Elevated Mood and Reduced Stress

Weed is known for its mood-enhancing properties. For many, this might translate to a more enjoyable and stress-free workout, helping you push through those tough sessions with a smile.

Strain Selection: Finding Your Fitness Buddy

Now that we’ve explored the ins and outs, let’s talk strains. Not all weed is meant to make you feel stuck in the couch, and choosing the right strain can make or break your workout experience.

Sativa Dominant Strains

These are often associated with energizing effects, making them a popular choice for physical activities. Strains like Green Crack or Sour Diesel might be your go-to for a pre-workout boost of energy.

Hybrid Strains

If you’re seeking a balanced experience, hybrids like Blue Dream or Pineapple Express may provide a mix of energy and relaxation.

CBD Dominant Strains

For those who may be looking for the benefits without the high, CBD-dominant strains like Charlotte’s Web or ACDC are excellent choices.

Fun and Outside-the-Box Exercises

Now that you’ve got the right strain in hand, let’s explore some fun and unconventional exercises to spice up your routine:

High Yoga

Take your yoga practice to new heights by incorporating cannabis. The combination of mindful movement and a relaxed state of mind can deepen your stretches and enhance the overall experience.

Cannabis-Infused Dance Workouts

Whether you’re a skilled dancer or just enjoy moving to the beat, a cannabis-infused dance workout can turn exercise into a dance party. Let loose, express yourself, and burn calories in the process. Cannabis may also change the way you hear music. You might pick up on some extra beats if you incorporate cannabis and music into your workout routine. 

Nature Walks or Hikes

Connect with the great outdoors by taking a hike or nature walk while high. The synergy of cannabis and nature can elevate your sensory experience and make your workout feel less like a chore.

Pre and Post-Workout Tips

Before you light up or munch on that edible, consider these tips for a seamless integration of weed into your fitness routine:

Start Low, Go Slow

If you’re new to combining cannabis and exercise, start with a small dose and gradually increase based on your comfort level.

Stay Hydrated

Counteract the dry mouth effect by hydrating well before your workout. Coconut water or cucumber-infused water might be an excellent choice that may help you stay hydrated.

Snack Smart

Choose a light, balanced snack to fuel your workout. A mix of protein and complex carbohydrates can provide sustained energy.

Cool Down with CBD

Consider incorporating CBD topicals to soothe your muscles post-workout. They can help alleviate any potential soreness contribute to a faster recovery, and may help you to rest and relax.

Hydrate and Refuel

After your workout, hydrate with water or a refreshing cannabis-infused smoothie. Replenish your energy with a nutrient-packed meal to support recovery.

Reflect and Relax

Take a moment to reflect on your workout and appreciate the mind-body connection you’ve cultivated. Whether through meditation or simply enjoying the post-exercise high, savor the moment.
