Does weed lower testosterone ?

Not sure about directly, but bad habits that may (MAY) come from smoking weed will lower your testosterone such as overeating low nutritional foods, not working out and having excess body fat. Some people are able to maintain their habits and bodies while smoking weed though.

If you’re smoking weed recreationally it doesn’t really add value to your life which is why your dad is telling you to grow up. You’re 21 and calling your parents house a crib? Are you trying to just be cool? Your father wants you to have better for yourself, which requires work. Now if you had chronic pain then yeah weed adds to your life otherwise it’s going to distract you from building healthy habits and growing as a man.

So yea listen to your dad. You don’t need me to tell you this. You’re hamstering hard looking for validation. Cut the weed.

It’s a fun thing to do when you’re young but long term it is a waste of money and the effects aren’t worth it.

If you do use it just make sure you lift and eat good meals so you get stronger and reach your calories.

The brain is still developing somewhere until the age of 25 (If you can believe scientists) and possibly keeps developing the whole life, take from that what you will.

Imagine a stereotypical smoker. Does he look like someone who has high testosterone?

SteveSan82 · 2020-05-19T07:14:12+00:00

Yes it does dramatically. That's probably why daily users look feminine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/6090909/

Back in high school my father told me that weed is just like beer. Moderation. “Excessive use turns you into a stoner... and stoners are like piss in the wind.”

I smoked weed when I was young but now I don't do it anymore, makes me lazy.

It really depends on your body. I know a dude who is smoking every day, running his business, being super productive and driven. I also know people who smoke every day and look and act like they have vaginas.

Who cares? It fucking gums up your synapses, dumb ass. Lay off the fucking weed.

edit: It not If, guess I'm the dumb ass. Still, lay off the fucking weed.

Dudes will say that weed is cringe and bluepilled and then tell you that it's based and redpilled to go out 2-3 times a week to the bar to pick up or meet tinder dates.

In moderation it's fine. If you struggle with moderation then maybe drugs aren't for you.

Alcohal lowers it just as much as weed maybe more

ArrogantChad · 2020-05-19T06:42:15+00:00

I don't know dude but you sure as hell shouldn't do weed, one of the worst effects isthat depending on the type it's hard to keep attention.

When someone tells you it is not ok to smoke weed you just jump on them to have a drink. Asktrp is not a place to seek confirmation. If you want to do it, do it. But there are studies that show the impact of drugs in general on testosterone

PabloEasyGo · 2020-05-19T10:41:22+00:00

Listen man, like all things in life if you are moderate with the intake and it doesnt take away time from other important activities such as lifting, reading, social interactions, studying, etc... you are fine. The thing is that once you get the habit is hard to break it off, I only allow myself to have a joint when I consider I have done all of the things I set out to do.
