How does cannabis fitness work?
What are the benefits & risks?
Cannabis Fitness looks different for each individual. It’s not a one-size-fits-all. For example, if you’re dealing with pain like sciatica we might discover through your 1-1 session that it’s essential for you to start flexibility training. I might also recommend a CBD/ THC topical for relief so you’re not in pain while stretching.
Another example might be, someone struggling to lose weight. Let’s call her Jane for this scenario…Jane has tried for years to lose weight. She’s found some success in exercising and dieting but the weight eventually keeps returning. Jane understands that her weight loss is due to her emotions too, she tends to overeat when anxious, bored, or upset. My session with Jane would be talking about this and then getting her working 1-1 with me 2x per week.
We would focus on building her fitness foundation from the ground up using 3D fitness (which trains the whole body!) I’d also talk to Jane about using a CBD tincture to see if it would show a difference in her mood, sleep, and mental clarity to start. In about 4-6 weeks, Jane starts to FEEL & see her results happening, which naturally motivates her to exercise more often. She started bike riding in the evenings and finds it helps regulate her mood too. From there we might start adding hemp into her breakfast for nutrients her body is missing (which makes anyone moody and hungry!)
One last example could be someone who uses cannabis all the time, they work out often too. They love using THC to work out, it gives them motivation and helps them feel good in their body. This gentleman might struggle with low energy and be at a plateau with cannabis fitness from time to time. During our session, we might discover he needs some rest days from cannabis & exercise. This client has a self-discovery moment a week into his rest days…he forgot how good it feels to slow down! He implements off days now in his training protocol to rest and recharge for what he loves most, his workouts!
These are just a few examples of the many different ways cannabis fitness is used. No two people are the same, but if there’s a will, I will find a way for you to be successful. That’s the main driving factor: if you’re willing to show up and put in the effort, momentum builds, and success will happen.
Let’s define the 'What' and 'How' of Mind Body Physique Cannabis Fitness, which will help you better understand your cannabis fitness experience and upgrade your well-being while getting in amazing shape.
What is "3D" or three-dimensional?
The human body is designed to react and respond to the ground, gravity, and any other external stimulus it receives. For example, when you take a step, your joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments respond and adapt to the ground beneath your feet. This reaction happens all the time, whenever we move and this ability gives us insight into how our body can move in three-dimensional space.
These movement patterns define our three planes of motion, which are, the Sagittal Plane (forward & back), the Frontal Plane (side-to-side), and the Transverse Plane (rotating). They work simultaneously in reacting to our environment and the task at hand. Throwing a ball, bending to pick something up, and getting in and out of the car are just a few that activate all three planes of motion. In these workout programs, you'll explore all three planes to enhance your movement quality.
What is 3D fitness?
The principles, strategies, and techniques of 3D fitness are established from Applied Functional Science (AFS). AFS is the science of movement! In other words, it's the practical science of how our joints, muscles, ligaments, etc. react and respond to our everyday physical activities. Traditional fitness aims towards isolating body parts and or regions of the body in one plane, maybe two planes of motion. This isolated approach to training the body can work, but it's not as authentic or efficient compared to MBP 3D fitness, which integrates the whole body in all three planes of motion. This series will equip you with 3D exercises that assist in balancing your body while toning your physique and increasing your baseline fitness overall.
So, what's cannabis fitness then?
When you mix MBP 3D fitness, & cannabis, you get Cannabis Fitness! At Mind Body Physique, cannabis fitness is defined as, biomechanical & endocannabinoid homeostasis. Biomechanics is the science of movement (AFS), this part you understand by now. So let's talk about our endocannabinoid system (ECS).
Our ECS is a system in our body that regulates our sleep, mood, stress, appetite, and so much more. If you're new to cannabis and would like to learn more about your ECS, I recommend reading through this general overview of the Endocannabinoid System. When our ECS is balanced and producing cannabinoids, our internal systems are working as they should, giving us a healthy mind & body in return. When we lack cannabinoids, we often see the opposite. Sleep disturbances, anxiousness, lack of motivation, and weight issues are just a few ailments to name.
With cannabis fitness training, you're getting it all.
Through MBP 3D fitness training, you're gaining biomechanical alignment, & with cannabis, you're receiving endocannabinoid homeostasis.
In these workout programs, you'll be nurturing both systems; conditioning you for a balanced, mind, body spirit & emotions.
Please consult with your doctor before starting a new exercise regimen and ask them about using cannabis for your health. Individuals with preexisting conditions may have risks that others do not. In patients with high risk for (or already diagnosed) psychotic diseases, Delta 9 THC, Delta 8 THC & any other psychoactive cannabinoids should be avoided. Cannabis Fitness Training is not for everyone. You must be at least 18 years old to participate in these programs.
Here are a few FAQs that might help if you have further questions & some articles I'd recommend reading before starting your cannabis fitness journey.
