251. The Surprising Benefits of Cannabis for Fitness Enthusiasts, Part 2

Author: Ellen Scanlon July 23, 2024 Duration: 27:26
In part two of our Weed & Workouts series, we delve into the reasons why cannabis is banned in Olympic competition, despite not being performance enhancing. We discover why active people are incorporating cannabis into their fitness routines for increased motivation, better recovery, and an enhanced "runner's high," and get valuable tips from people across the country who have found a new workout buddy in cannabis. Whether you're a casual gym-goer or a dedicated athlete, learn why more and more fitness enthusiasts are turning to weed to elevate their exercise experience. “I usually take it about 20 minutes before I go for a run. That transition into the meditative state where it just seems smoother and easier, it's just really nice. I find myself getting lost, not even really paying attention to where I'm going. It becomes almost an outer body experience and it's really lovely.” If you enjoyed this episode, we’d recommend Episode 250, Runner’s High is Real: Weed & Workouts, Part 1.

Ellen Scanlon’s How to Do the Pot is an award-winning conversation that demystifies cannabis with a focus on women’s experiences. This isn’t a technical manual or a dry lecture; it’s a space where curiosity meets practical, joyful advice. The podcast explores how cannabis can intersect with health, well-being, and daily life, tackling questions that often go unasked. You’ll hear specific discussions about finding the right strain for relaxation or intimacy, using CBD for menstrual discomfort, and the nuanced differences between varieties like Harlequin and Gelato. There’s a deliberate and thoughtful choice in language here, too, favoring the term “cannabis” over other outdated labels. At its heart, the series amplifies personal stories and expert insights, creating a resource that feels both informative and deeply relatable. Whether you’re seeking relief, exploring for fun, or just want to understand the landscape better, this podcast provides a welcoming and smart guide through the often overwhelming world of cannabis, all from a perspective that is genuinely for women and by women.
