CBD for wrestlers (safety, legality, suggestions)

CBD (cannabidiol) has gained much attention among wrestlers and other athletes. This is because of the benefits that CBD, an extract from the cannabis plant, can have for so many people. Some of its benefits include supporting a good night’s rest, helping to maintain a calm mood and supporting overall wellness. Pet owners across the world also use CBD to support their pet’s quality of life. Among athletes, wrestlers are a group that could gain a lot from CBD use. One of these potential benefits is support for post-workout recovery.

Using CBD may help you recover from a hard workout or competition. We all know how essential rest is for recovery, but getting some quality sleep at night may be a bit difficult when a big competition or match is stressing you out. CBD is commonly used as a support for mood, so it may help you relax and get a great night of rest.

CBD also supports your body in maintaining healthy muscles and joints, which is a must for any wrestler or athlete. When you regularly put your body through strenuous activity, those hard-working muscles and joints can use a helping hand.

One thing many have been questioning is the legality of CBD in different sporting disciplines. It was previously prohibited by World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), but in 2018, CBD was removed from WADA’s prohibited substance list. As long as it does not contain THC, CBD won’t get a user high. Therefore, it’s vital that you use a CBD product that doesn’t contain any THC — always make sure to check a company’s lab test results to be certain about the contents of the product.

Safety Precautions to Observe When Using CBD

Observing safety precautions when using CBD is essential for athletes. You’re much more likely to experience quality results and the chances of experiencing any negative side effects will be minimal. There are different safety measures you should observe when using this extract as an athlete. They include:

Correct Servings

You need to take CBD in the right serving amount if you want to get the best results. There are no cases that have been reported of anyone overdosing after using it in excess. However, it’s important that you establish the right amount for your body. The best way to determine the correct serving for use is by starting with a smaller amount and increasing the serving as needed. With time, you will find what is right for your body.

Buy from High-Quality Vendors

You should buy your products from vendors that you can trust. The market has been flooded with so many CBD products and stores that it can be difficult to know who is legitimate. Do your research to find out who is reputable. You’ll want to look for characteristics like online lab reports, hemp grown in the USA and great customer service. Stores with these qualities, like Joy Organics, truly care about producing great products for their customers.

Source

Get to know the source of the CBD product you want to purchase to establish whether it is safe for consumption. The source is the hemp plant from which the CBD was extracted. The plants should always be planted in the right conditions — no chemicals in the form of fertilizer or pesticides should be used. Chemicals may affect the quality of the product you want to use. You’ll also want to make sure that the hemp was grown in the USA rather than overseas as there are stricter standards for hemp farming in America.

The Ideal CBD Products for Wrestlers

You will find many products made from this cannabis compound you can use as an athlete. The following are some of the suggested CBD products for any wrestler.

CBD Energy Drink

With a CBD energy drink mix, you get a double whammy of benefits. First is caffeine, which will give you an extra boost of energy anytime you need it. Second is, of course, CBD. In an energy drink mix, the CBD will be in a water-soluble powder format, making it super easy to take. You can mix it with water, helping yourself stay hydrated too. A CBD energy drink can be used before or after your workouts, or any other time of the day.

CBD Capsules

This is another ideal way of using this cannabis compound. Capsules can be taken like any other capsule or pill — just get a glass of water and swallow. These capsules usually contain CBD that is in powder or oil form. For a simple, familiar and no-mess option, capsules are almost always perfect.

CBD Oil Tinctures

This is one of the most popular forms of this cannabis compound. A CBD tincture contains CBD mixed with a carrier oil, as well as essential oils for flavor. It can be mixed with food, such as a smoothie or baking oil, which makes its consumption easier. You can also ingest a tincture oil directly by mouth.

While these are some of the best options out there, the versatility of CBD is incredible and it just takes some trial and error to find your ideal product. If you’re a wrestler who wants to incorporate CBD into your life, make sure you do your research to find a reputable company who will supply you with premium CBD products that work. They just may help you bring your game to the next level.
