Here are the 5 main reasons CBD should be part of your training routine. 

1. Provides Post-Workout/ Competition Mobility, Pliability, and Focus. 

NBA Superstar Stephen Curry might wake up Wednesday from a grueling Game 1 against the Lakers the night before and be stiff and sore. Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, known as the World’s Strongest man in 2018 and “The Mountain” in the HBO Series “The Game OF Thrones”, might also wake up stiff and sore from the previous day’s training or competition. CBD can help them both recover quickly from the day before. Within minutes after applying Pua Olonā’s topical CBD product to their muscles and joints, these very different but intense competitors will go about their morning as if the day before was just a walk in the park. 

2. Ensures Pre-Workout Mobility, Workout Stamina. 

CBD applied prior to a workout, will calm the body and the mind, making warmup reps painless, range of motion effortless, ensuring muscles and joints feel pliable and warm. An added benefit is you’ll feel like you have the strength and energy to add more reps or exercises to your current daily routine. The guys in the photo above will testify to that. 

3. Post Workout Mobility and Calm

Intense workouts can cause muscle soreness, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Applying CBD to specific muscle groups and joints consistently after every workout will ensure you don’t walk funny, and you don’t have “noodle” arms. CBD works 100% of the time in this manner, our powerlifters can attest to that. 

4. Restful Sleep

A good night’s sleep plays a vital role in allowing muscles to rest and recover after workouts. CBD’s relaxation-inducing effects make it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep for longer periods. This means better quality sleep, faster recovery time and more energy levels to carry out daily activities and workouts. 

5. Reduced Mental Stress

Mental stress can significantly impact well-being and disrupt an individuals’ ability to focus prior practice and game competition. Players are always under pressure to improve from one year to the next as they can be beat out of their respective positions if they don’t improve strength, agility, and game IQ. Solo competitors also worry about whether they’re prepared enough to win a race, or a match. Have they done enough to prepare for their opponents, do they have enough stamina to withstand challenges? These questions about worthiness, preparedness cause a lot of anxiety which manifests itself in sleep issues. CBD has shown to be an effective remedy for athletes suffering from anxiety-related issues. It helps calm the mind and promote a better sense of well-being, reducing any negative thoughts that may impact their athletic proficiency.
