Any thoughts? I know a few fighters who likely do, namely Nick Diaz, who also has some of the best cardio in the sport. I also have smoked regularly and trained and fought without noticing any negative affects to any of my game. What's then underground think?
Lets get high is
What I think
get ready for angry haters
ChaosOverkill - get ready for angry haters
I'm prepared for it bro.
Anyone that hates on it doesn't smoke it, or shouldn't smoke it. No one drug is meant for everyone, that's what prescriptions are for.
Yes, I smoke and watch mma all the time, every single event I smoke and watch it.
Smoking and training, does it hurt you? I guess it depends, do you smoke daily? For how many years? do you smoke cigs as well?
if you just smoke pot once in a while and have done it for a few years I dont think ti will hurt you, if you smoke cigs and pot for years and years then yes that should affect you.

I am totally against smoking cigarettes, all my friends smoke them and I can't even be in the same room when they do it, but I train about 4 days a week and run about 4 miles everyday. I would never smoke on a training day but when I'm sore on a day off nothing is better, I prefer vaporizing but I also smoke every off day and I have great cardio, speed and reflexes. I've been smoking and training for about 3 years, 2 in boxing and the last just mma. I've never noticed any negative affects on my training.
I've been smoking for years and it doesnt affect my cardio. I don't fight but I do play sports without any issues.
People who smoke weed will always be looked down at because it's a drug and it's illegal. Untill it's legalized thats how it's gonna be. Sucks

I agree with you. Too many people believe what the government tells you and are afraid to have an open mind on these topics.
Very few MJ smokers smoke the same quantities as the average tobacco smokers do. And if you're smoking the good shit, you smoke even less. If you vape, you don't "smoke" at all.
Often times a light smoker will actually increase their lung capacity by practicing holding their breath, and the harsh smoke that causes coughing helps "clean house".
I also like to get high and study mma, also watching videos of my upcoming opponents, I feel it helps me break down the tactical aspects of fighting.

I've also heard that you cough a lot (obviously) but you also have barely noticeable small coughs that are good for your abs. Idk how accurate that is but I'm sure I've heard it somewhere lol.
I love smoking. I feel like it helps me understand things. Like I used to be terrible at grip fighting until I smoked and practiced one day. Only negative side effect I have noticed is a slight increase in dumb posts.
Im in South Korea and I can't get high at all! and it sucks monkey dicks!!!!!!
On that note if you live and soko and know where I can go PM me motherfuckers!

I know what you mean, I've heard a lot of the hardcore bjj guys smoke and do bjj everyday in brazil. It's a way of life for many of the bjj guys in brazil.
What do you mean by dumb posts?

that's from a Nick Diaz interview. Also i heard BJ smokes and I believed it. Hawian lifestyle and all
Bj says in his book multiple times that him and his friends would get stoned everyday.

As in im more likely to make a stupid post if iv been smoking. That's why I no longer smoke and post on any mma forum lol.
If I could live in brazil, trane and smoke weed everyday I would die a happy man.
Haha I get what you mean bro!
I understand that people sometimes act stupider when their high, but I feel it's more of them understanding what they mean because they think more in detail then a sober person.
But then there's the already stupid people who smoke weed and are still stupid. And those are the people think about when they think about people who smoke weed.
