Killed my workout today and finished with a strong drink while relaxing in the pool, about to fire up a bowl in the volcano to top it off. Something about this combo is incredibly satisfying and relaxing post workout.
This has me wondering, what have been your favorite substances to use after a good workout?

IDK about post but pre the best drugs are stimulants and some oral steroids like Anadrol. When I take 50mg Anadrol before a workout my bench press instantly goes up 10 pounds, and I get way better pumps.
I wish I could take any kind of stems pre workout. Use to be on vyvanse but got nasty burps all workout if I took it before.
Try a lower dose or caffeine instead. Also high doses of stimulants would be harmful to workout on because of the blood pressure and heart rate increase.
Should add the vyvanse was perscribed lol, would have a lower dose if that worked for me. Thankfully had my heart looked at and no big effects from the vyvance.
Right now its mostly monsters an red bull not long before lifting.
I feel like I have noticeably better workout sessions when on Phenibut. Maybe because it makes music sound better than normal, but it’s also stimulating at first I find, and the best is you sleep well on it and have an afterglow effect the following day. Downside is you can only take it 1-2x per week maximum, at least at any dose over 300mg I’d say. I take 1.5g usually 2-3x per month
I fucking love taking phenibut and high caffeine preworkout before my workout
Post i like Valium or oxycodone
Kratom. Pre or post
What? Pre fr? Gonna try
Personally gets me in the zone. A little preworkout and an extract shot gets me going
Percs or morphine
Preferably without tylenol
Yeah, anti-inflammatory drugs mess with ones response to training. They inhibit progress somewhat.
Completely true avoid em when possible.. sometimes you gotta pop em though
Ghb causes a fair amount of human growth hormone. People take it while on a work out regimen and get swol. Don’t go too hard tho
I have prescription vyvanse hand and you're welcome to slide into the dee m's
Weed is very useful like others said, I will fuck the alcohol and use kratom instead.
Or use it as a preworkout. When I workout on kratom the euphoria from it intensifies a lot. Or drink yerba mate. It has caffeine so it can be another good preworkout, plus it has a lot of vitamins and minerals and it twnds to do something very good with my mind and mood. Yerba mate is the best
Benzos and weed shouldn't ruin your recovery and they make you relax and help you sleep. Be careful with benzos though they are detrimental to your gaba system.
It's not very adventurous, but a cold beer post-workout is wonderful. That said, I have read that it's a really bad move in terms of actual fitness and body building. Still, try it if you haven't. Amazing.
Nothing hits quite the same as an adderall lift
My pump is so large by the end I can barely fit through the door as I leave.
A beer and a fat ass joint
Depends on your goals.
If your trying to bulk up weed is the best. It’s perfect for recovery bcs it makes you eat and sleep.
Alcohol is a horrible choice no matter what. It inhibits your bodies ability to build muscle.
Weed interferes with muscle growth. It also ruins rem sleep which is essential to hormone regulation and recovery.
Alcohol is way worse tho
Yeah I know it could mess with sleep. I’ve never heard of it effecting muscle growth that’s interesting.
But for me the benefits definitely outweigh the costs. If your deep in a bulk and eating is getting tough it’s a game changer.
Is it due to recovery and hydration or is there something else fucking it up?
Alcohol’s affect on muscle isn’t significant if used in moderation. It’s been shown to inhibit mTOR in rats, raise cortisol, and lower testosterone levels. The slight temporary drop in testosterone would be negligible for muscle. Overall occasional drinking would have a negligible effect on your gains.
