This is not necessarily true.
Bad idea before workout, I agree. Concentration on other things…again is subjective to each person and not always a psychedelic distraction.
You’re letting your feelings about pot cloud the realistic aspects to it, which are not cut-and-dried. It’s a complex substance in which each person’s experience will differ from another.

I know a pot-head who claims he gets all pumped and hyped up when he’s high. When he’s at his best (when he’s high) he can do 3 pull-ups.
Whoever told you that smoking weed is a good stimulant doesn’t take lifting seriously. Odds are they don’t take anything seriously. [/quote]
I do not know about athletic performance but I believe that when high there is a different mind body connection. Speaking from my experience I believe I have a wider range of motion. I believe I have a deeper train of concentration, I also believe that I get an analgesic affect as well
