CBD oil for post exercise recovery

[Tiggsy]

A relative of mine has been using CBD for stress/sleep assistance (to great effect) and so I had some around (I order them as Amazon is beyond her) - took 30mg after a 2 1/2 hour endurance event on Saturday and on Sunday...felt good. Now 2 days on and the DOMS I would have expected (and have got from far shorter events) hasn't really showed up. I have a few knocks that hurts but actual muscle soreness is not there like I'd expect. So much so, I'm going to run to the gym shortly as I feel good and an easy 6km jog feels very doable without discomfort. Will then hit chest before sauna. Orignal plan was drive to the gym for a sauna only as a recovery day. Feel too good to just do that!

CBD - placebo/miracle??

There is a growing amount of professional athletes that use cbd as part of post workout/fight routine

I'm under the impression that the stuff we get over here is the placebo as its usually derived from hemp. Americans et al get the real deal

I think the hemp v cannabis issue applies to most US states too so not sure they are taking anything different to us? Most CBD oil seems to be derived from hemp
