It can enhance sexual desire though. Isn't it better than popping viagra? Or Xanax, if you are using it to relax? Or, painkillers if you are using it for any kind of pain. It has a lot of good purposes, and in a country where sleeping pills are sold over the counter, and every housewife in America is taking Tyenol PM, this whole issue is retarded!

its does enhance sex. Viags have there recreational benefit if your planning indoor Olympics. Xanax is good for sleeping or plane rides. Painkillers are good for painkilling.
 
I didn't know about this. Well, everyone just call your congressperson and get on their ass about this. And tell all your friends to do the same.

Barney Frank is now my main man, I've been to several sites that prepare a letter to your congressman telling them you support it. I've emailed a bunch of my friends on it.
 
Weren't they talking about taking away a snowboarder's medal a few years ago because of pot?

I can see where it would help in a sport like that. Swimming, I'm not so sure. Regardless, you would have to smoke just prior to a meet; it's not a drug like a steroid where use that is non-related to an event would help.

Pot would not help in any sport... especially boarding. You do not want to be stoned or even on your way to stoned when skiing or boarding. Especially at the speeds the Olympians get up to.

Having skied stoned a few times, I would have to disagree. First, it completely eliminates any nerves associated w/ the pressure. Second, in any sort of freestyle event, it can definitely enhance creativity & add an element of fearlessness to whatever you're attempting.

For any kind of athletics involving endurance, I can also see where it would act as kind of a painkiller, as well (or at least give you a better mindset for ignoring the pain)
 
Oncelor, I totally respect and envy you skiing stoned or just getting stoned. You've risen to near god status in my book.
But you can't be serious, motor skill are seriously compromised by MJ. Now if your talking a couple tokes to come the nerves yes. Anything more than a spliff and your Sonny Bonno in waiting.

I think it depends on what your doing and what your mindset is. if you unfocused and have a lot of anxiety before doing something it prob would benefit you to toke a bit.

First, the 'nerves' argument may work for a recreational skier/boarder, but not so much on the professional. The added benefit would be minimal and would be more than offset by the detraction from focus and coordination.

For endurance events it would be just as bad. Again, you are correct to state that it would dull the pain, but you need to feel your body in endurance events... and again, you don't want the lack of focus that pot gives you. I have run a marathon and completed a lot of century bike rides, that would detract far more from results than the benefit of pain reduction would provide.

The only think I have ever taken Xanax for is long plane rides. That stuff goes through your liver, I wouldn't use it too much. Viagra I don't know about.

Is this going to get hot?

xanax rules for plane rides. I dont use it for anything else except the occasional bout of insomnia when im real stressed. Like i said with the viag its got recreational value if you want to be like a porn star for a few days straight.

It obviously will reduce anxiety, but if you are already unfocused... pot is NOT going to help.

i have a friend thats diagnosed adhd and probably also bi-polar tho not diagnosed. If hes not either on pot or on his scrips I cant even hang out with him.

I think it totally depends on the individual. I do believe it is a benefit to certain personalities.

I have tried all of them. Like you, the xanax I use for plane rides and OCCASIONALLY for help sleeping...though I don't do very often for fear of becoming dependent on a sleep aid. I have taken pain meds for pain, but also for recreation on occasion. Again, I don't make a habit of it. And yes, I have also tried viag ;). I was curious after all those Sex in the City episodes and wanted to see if there was something to it. Honestly I didn't like it. However, I LOVED the effects on my partner :)

Perhaps, but it is not typically going to help a professional athlete. Whole different type of focus required.

Endurance? Potheads are known for not being able to endure much more than the couch and the TV.

I can't imagine wanting to subject myself to pain while high either.

It's drawbacks are too significant to make any slight gain you'd get in other areas worthwhile. I don't have a problem with them testing for it during competitions though. Sports with a long season they should not test for it.

for chicks I dont think there is much of an effect.
