In 1998 Ricky Williams was an amazing running back and winner of the 1998 Heisman trophy. Clearly he still likes to work out but he is also a big weed fan and long-time advocate!

Williams has had some personal mental health issues with social anxiety disorder, avoidance disorder, and borderline personality disorder and was once a spokesperson for the drug Paxil.

However he has since been quoted as saying that for him marijuana was “10 times better for me than Paxil.”

Now, he has decided to mix weed and working out, two things that seem counter to each other for many. All I can think is Kevin Spacey getting high and pushing weights in his garage 🙂 (See American Beauty if you don’t know what I am talking about).

But lots of people find the ganj helps them relax, helps them workout and push themselves.

The Root reported

“Williams reportedly is partnering on the gym with Jim McAlpine, founder of 420 Games, which hosts athletic competitions for potheads nationwide including triathlons, mountain bike races, golf tournaments, and its signature 4.20-mile run.

In an interview with Tech Insider, McAlpine said that new members at Power Plant will take a “cannabis performance assessment” before beginning a regimen.“We will be helping our members figure out how is best for them to ingest their cannabis,” McAlpine said.

You think this would be a good place for you?
