Thread: And The Drugs Don't Work

They just make you worse?

Anyway, I don't bother with drugs, just have no need for them.... But as I try to maintain a healthy lifestyle it surprises me when I come across a number of MMA coaches/fighters etc that smoke weed, drink excessively and smoke cigarettes....

How do I know this? just a quick gander around Facebook and this becomes obvious, I ain't saying how else I know this but meh...

So do you smoke Weed/Tobacco?
Drink alot?
Maybe just the odd line of coke?

And consider yourself apart of The MMA Scene?
as in you compete or train regularly.

No finger pointing here now, if you do so what? thats your choice...
Yes i've done most drugs (except brown) and smoked cigarettes in my teens.....
Now I just don't see the point.

Don't smoke or do drugs, Occasionly i will have a bottle of beer or two. Only time i really ever drink much more than that is if i'm going out in town for a bday or something like that.

No im a boring bastard, i drink very on occasions partys/nights out etc...so maybe once every 2 weeks but, never smoked, my life seems to revolve around training/working family - ive dont the party scene though lived abroad for a bit etc

Even though I don't train mma (club locations close to me are stupidly to get to) I take my martial arts training very serisouly. Since starting JJ two years ago, I've only had a pint of Guiness once (it used to be all I drunk when I went out etc) and two bottles of pear cider at a birthday celebration, I've never done any sort of drugs as I don't see the fascination behind them and never understood why someone would want to poison their body even if they aren't training.

If someone is training and taking drugs that to me is just a waste of time. You spend all the hours rolling, developing technique and eating healthily etc and then go and inject, inhale etc a harmful toxin into your body what the hell are these people thinking.

Never smoked or done any drugs, dont drink anymore, kinda just got worked outta me by having to train all the time before. Im getting back into training, and my "drug" now is trying to cut out fizzy drinks lol.

Ive heard from mates who have done camps in thailand, that alot of the thais smoke, but theyre so good at what they do, they know how to fight and conserve engergy rather than waste it.

Im boring lol :happy:

No alcohol, no recreational drugs, not even late nights.

Only real bad thing is that I tend to eat junk food (albeit cooked at from raw state and a fair bit of it) on the weekends.

I smoke 30-40 a day want too quit so bad but find it so hard !
I don't smoke weed I hate the stuff
I drink quite alot Friday/sat every week I get steaming
I've done coke once but never again reasons have already been explained in another thread :thumb
I think I'm more of a rarity but I am stopping all that stuff when I leave Milton Keynes

Done drugs no hardcore ones tho like crack,meth or golden. Used to be bad on the biscuits and smoking, Quit both. Cold turkey style. lol
Dont really drink any more unless its a occasion, Going Pro so Train now 6 days a week, 4+ hours a day.
so yeah im in the MMA scene id say! lol

I'm no angel, I've dabbled in the past but have knocked all that on the head now.

I'm not interested in it all now so stopped it all, kind of lost interest haha. Am on a current drinking ban til after my fight but I'm not really a big drinker.

Prescription drugs on the other hand, are a different matter. Am taking a few prescribed meds but we won't go there haha.

used to smoke weed every day a couple of years ago, tried coke once and thought it was horrible .. never smoked cigarettes

dont drink anymore, loast drink was in like february, which is shockin for a uni student !!

in a world where we're lucky to be alive considering how many people die from other peoples actions and illness, im not gonna try and increase the chance of a quicker death through cancer or alcohol poisoning etc.

I think grown up folk realise that drugs add a quick buzz, and if you cant ahve fun without drugs, you're borrringggg .. I would much rather just train, play poker or xbox with friends, hang with my family and missus etc. ..
