Just caught it... on the sus 250 and I know it fucks with the immune system and I also smoke a good bit of marijuana for weight gain and nerves and I know that lowers too....


What do yall do? Ive been taking vit c ... this cold is starting to fuck with my training...

FIRST THING I WOULD DO, IS DITCH THE DOPE.

ALL EXSCUSES ASIDE, ITS NOT HELPING YOU ACHEIVE YOUR GOALS.

AS FAR THE THE COLD, I USUALLY DOUBLE UP ON SOME IMMUNE BOOSTERS, THINGS LIKE:

PROBIOTICS
PREBIOTICS
VIT. C
VIT. E
AND OTHER ANTIOXIDANTS, LIKE ELDERBERRY.

ONE OF MY FAVORITES WHICH HAS SOME PROVEN NK CELL BOOSTING SCIENCE BEHIND IT IS A COCKTAIL OF MUSHROOMS:
MAITAKE, SHIITAKE, ENOKITAKE, LIONS MANE, ZHU LING, REISHI , CORDYCEPS, BIRCH POLYPORE, ETC.

NEWCHAPTER MAKES A GREAT PRODUCT CALLED "HOST DEFENSE" WHICH CONTAINS ALL THESE AND MORE.

Do a shitload of Zinc. 100mg 3X/day. That usually helps me.

[MissKBuff]

I've herad that zinc is great, try "cold fx" or something like that, that should definitely speed up the process.

Does weed actually mess up my gains???

[Thinkbig]

SOME WOULD SAY YES, I'M NOT GOING TO DEBATE IT, AS I HAVE HEARD IT ALL BEFORE...

...HOWEVER ASK YOURSELF THIS: "WHETHER OR NOT IT ACTUALLY HINDERS GAINS, DOES IT HELP THEM"?

IT CERTAINLY DOESN'T HELP THEM, SO WHY USE IT?

THE CLAIM THAT ITS USEFUL FOR HELPING A BODYBUILDER EAT AND STIMULATE APPETITIE IS MOOT AT BEST, AND NEVER REALLY JIVED WITH ME, BECAUSE IT ALSO HELPS TO SEDATE ONE AND MAKES YOU LAZY AND NOT ABLE TO TRAIN AS INTENSELY.

I'D ARGUE THAT IT MAY EFFECT THE GAP JUNTION AND SYNAPSES BECAUSE IT HAS PSYCHOACTIVE EFFECTS THAT SLOW REACTION TIME AND ABILITY TO PERFORM TASKS AS WELL, WHICH WOULD LEAD TO A LESSER ABILITY TO RECRUIT MOTOR UNITS AND HINDER STRENGTH, ETC.

WHICH LEADS ME TO THEN ASK YOU WHY WOULD YOU RISK USING A PERFORMANCE ENHANCER AND A REC DRUG WHEN THEY CLEARLY HAVE OPPOSING USES AND I'D ARGUE OPPOSING METHODOLOGY.

If your bodybuilding and useing AAS at the same time. By Smoking that shit i think all your doing is throwing your money away. Like THINKBig said, is it helping you with your gains? No way! It may make you feel good at the time, but in the end your fucking with your lungs and throwing your money away, use you cash on more gear not weed!

[macjohn64]

lots of rest also. take a few days of from training it wont hurt.

All it does is increase appetite, which no one really needs anyways. In the process, it seriously damages your lungs, and in the long term, your brain. It will definitely not help your physique at all.
