Best Cannabis for Working Out

Cannabis and exercise pair best when you match the strain to the session: sativa for cardio, hybrid for lifts, indica or CBD for recovery. Good Grades stocks all three.

What works and why

Workout-leaning cannabis depends on timing. Pre-workout, sativa with pinene and limonene supports cardio flow. Post-workout, indica with myrcene and CBD-rich products help inflammation and sleep. Microdosing is the norm — most athletes use 2.5–5 mg edibles or single inhalations.
