4 Ways CBD Can Help With Your Athletic Performance

Published

on

Whether you are an athlete or simply visit your local gym or park a few times a week, chances are, you have one of a few simple goals. You either want to lose unwanted pounds, maintain your physique, or you simply enjoy leading a healthy lifestyle. Whatever your reason is, CBD can help you reach your goals and help with your athletic performance. While benefits of CBD have been widely covered, from stress management to treatment of insomnia, few sources cover ways that CBD can help improve your fitness routine. In this blog post, we will cover 4 ways that CBD can improve your athletic performance.

1. CBD Reduces Muscle Pain and Soreness

CBD is proven to be extremely effective in chronic pain management as well as temporary pain and soreness relief. Whether applied topically or ingested in oil or pill form, CBD helps with the muscle soreness you may experience after a workout or any athletic injury that may have occurred. It helps in the healing and recovery process. Our favorite way is to use it in a form of a topical cream and applied directly onto the sore muscle as needed throughout the day.

2. CBD Helps Improve Metabolism and Curb Cravings

If the primary reason for you taking up fitness activities is due to wanting to better your physique, CBD is effective in curbing hunger and cravings. If midnight snacking is something you struggle with, by ingesting CBD oil, you not only help regulate hormones that deal with metabolism but also reduce your cravings and appetite, leading to a more controlled meal plan and calorie intake.

3. CBD Reduces Stress and Anxiety

If you are a professional athlete or participate in any athletic events, you may experience some stage freight or stress that can negatively influence your performance. CBD has gained its popularity due to its incredible effects of reducing stress and anxiety which can prove to be extremely helpful if you tend to stress before a big event. By regularly using CBD or even using it only prior to your event, you can reduce the anxiety you feel and improve your overall athletic performance.

4. CBD Reduces Inflammation

We all have cheat days in which our entire diet goes out the plan, or maybe you had a night out in which you consumed too much unhealthy food and alcohol. This leads to inflammation which can in turn make you feel groggy and lethargic, making your next workout or practice performance less than optimal. CBD has amazing anti-inflammatory properties that can aid in the recovery post cheat day and in turn improve or at least return your athletic performance to its usual place.

Professional athlete or not, moving your body is not only great for the body but also for the soul. What isn’t ideal, are the potential muscle soreness, stress, and inflammation that one can experience. CBD can improve your athletic performance and reduce any of the unwanted side effects when used regularly.

Cannabis

Every couple knows how stressful Valentine’s Day can be for getting restaurant reservations. If you’re lucky to get in, chances are service will be slower than usual because they pack the places. It’s the absolute worst day to come out with thousands of couples hoping to get a decent meal. Why get through this when you can make a delicious meal at home? With the secret ingredient, CBD oil, your night will be more relaxing and romantic 

We can mix CBD oil in almost any food, from salty, and savory to sweet because it can blend well to the taste of other ingredients. In turn, you cannot tell the difference, but you can absorb and benefit from the goodness of CBD. 

Here are five CBD oil recipes that are perfect for Valentine’s Day:

Canna Potato Stuffed with Bacon

For the appetizer, you can serve this sumptuous meal packed with cheese, bacon, and your choice of protein. It’s easy to make, so nothing can go wrong as long as you use fresh ingredients. 

Here’s what you’ll be needing:

  • 2 large potatoes, baked
  • 2 drops of CBD oil 
  • 2 strips of bacon
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 bunch of scallions 

Directions:

1. Cut the potatoes in half horizontally. Make sure to wash first to remove dirt and particles. 

2. Gently scoop out the filling with a spoon and mash with the CBD oil. 

3. Cook the bacon to crisp and drain on a paper towel.

4. In the same skillet, add the scallions and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until tender. 

5. Top the potato with the bacon and scallions then sprinkle with a generous amount of cheddar cheese. 

6. Bake until cheese is melted and serve with sour crème dip. 

Note: Purchase your CBD oil from a registered dispensary to get proper dosing. The budtender can fill you in with the information you need regarding the oils. 

Canna Mushroom Soup

Soups are an integral part of a 5-course meal as it activates the digestive tract and helps people cut high-calorie food. It’s nourishing, warm and appetizing, so it’s perfect for a date night. If you’re not confident about your culinary skills, you can always perform a taste test before Valentine’s day to practice your skills and correct little mistakes. 

Ingredients:

  • 30g Shitake mushrooms
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • ½ cup onion, chopped 
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 drop of CBD oil

2. Add mushrooms and cook until tender. 

3. Add the vegetable broth and mix carefully. Gradually add the heavy cream then bring to a boil. 

4. To thicken the soup, you can add the ½ tablespoons of flour. 

5. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add more if needed. 

6. Serve warm.  

Pueblo Green Chicken Chili with CBD

The main star of the meal is this spicy yet incredibly flavorful chicken that’s easy to make. If you want to make it more special, you can replace the chicken with turkey or sausage. But in this recipe, we will be using chicken. 

Here are the ingredients:

  • Half chicken
  • 4 cups Kale
  • 5oz chopped green chili
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 cup diced onion

2. In a large stockpot, add all the ingredients.

3. Marinate the chicken with the mixture. Make sure you completely cover the chicken. 

4. Roast or bake chicken for about 25 to 30 minutes. 

5. Let cool then serve warm. 

Tomato Basil Pasta 

The best partner for the roast chicken is pasta. This recipe will complement the taste and flavor of the chili chicken. It only requires basic ingredients to make. 

Here are the things you will need:

  • 3 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • ½ teaspoon chili flakes
  • Basil
  • Parsley
  • Dill
  • 3 cups of water
  • 2 sweet shallots, sliced thinly
  • 1 drop of CBD oil
  • Pasta

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, pour the 3 cups of water then add salt, pepper, dill, and paste. Let cook until pasta is tender and ready. Set aside. 

2. Chop onion, basil, garlic, and chopped cherry tomatoes. 

3. Add a drop of CBD oil and the shallots. 

4. Mix pasta with the mixture and add salt or pepper to taste. 

5. Serve warm. 

CBD Infused Chocolate Mousse

End the meal with the sweetness of the chocolate mousse with a hint of CBD oil. The pungent aroma and taste will complement the chocolate which will make you drool with its sweetness.  

Ingredients:

  • Dark chocolate or any chocolate bar of your choice
  • 1 drop of CBD oil
  • 1 tablespoon of coffee (any kind)
  • ½ cup of sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
  • 5 large eggs, separate white from the yolk
  • 1 and ½ cups heavy cream
  • Chocolate shavings for garnish

Directions:

1. In a double boiler, add chocolate, CBD oil, sugar, coffee, and vanilla extract. Melt slowly until smooth. Remove from the heat and set aside. 

2. In a separate bowl, add egg whites and mix. 

3. In another bowl, whisk the cream until it has the consistency of whipped cream. 

4. Using a spatula, mix the yolks into the chocolate mixture. Do this slowly. 

5. Gently add the egg whites into the mixture. 

6. Now add the whipped cream until no streaks in the mousse. Set aside an ample amount of whipped cream for garnish. 

7. Pour the chocolate mixture in a large glass bowl, cover with plastic wrap and chill for 4 hours before serving. 

8. Add chocolate shavings and whipped cream. 

Try these recipes this coming Valentine’s Day to make the celebration even better at home. No need to go and be stressed out over traffic jams on the road. Stay at your place, relax and indulge in these meals packed with healthy ingredients like CBD oil.
