New Cannabis Friendly Gym Opening Soon In San Francisco

That would make sense as CBD is different and more narcotic or dopey like than THC, with it seeming to reduce anxiety rather than causing it. Benzos decrease anxiety and up gaba output and i believe increase human growth hormone as well, they help put on muscle, so it would make sense that CBD may raise gaba and hgh rather than lower it as opposed to THC. THC causes anxiety by reducing gaba and uping dopamine. Sugar cuts off hgh production to a large degree though, so maybe wait for the THC introduction for a half hour after workout to allow the hgh to repair as much as possible with the CBD gaba like assistance. THC is known to help with metabolism as well by allowing the body to utilize what it consumes, like sugar, in a healthier or quicker more useful way, thus why most stoners are skinnny, due to the increase in metabolism. This would assist with the sugar spike by allowing for quicker utilization which may also increase hgh rebound effect after consumption. Hmmm, seems like there may be a working system here with miss mary. Great point!

I agree with most of what you have shared @thechurch and can add that:
CBD is not physchoactive and that CBN develops when hydrogen oxidizes from THCA over time. CBN is what produces a really good, deep sleep and works synergistically with THC, once both are decarbed from their raw form. I think this is one of the biggest benefits that cannabis offers...it lets people get into and stay in low sleep state longer. This lets the body heal and repair itself. So whether that's from illness or work-out strain, repair will happen efficiently if people can achieve good quality sleep. :)
