Getting a second high from sweating the THC out?

    I've heard that buring off the body fat in which THC gets stored results in a second high. My question is whether or not anyone here has actually experienced such a high.

    Personally, I've noticed an elevated mood the following day in addition to a slightly bigger appetite, but I get the feeling that the means through which I burn the fat (i.e. sweat) is the primary cause for those two sensations.

    Any thoughts on the subject?

    My understanding was that THC gets stored in fat, which must be burned off to get rid of it (hence people heading over to steam rooms/saunas to get "clean"). The sweating is simply a byproduct of buring off said fat. Is that more clear?

    As for the matabolites being inactive...someone is going to have to fill me in on what exactly that means.

    heh, thc isn't actually absorbed into fat. It's the metabolites of thc, basically fragments of slightly broken down thc, which remain in fat in the body. These metabolites do not cause highs at all.

    I feel really relaxed and out of it when I exercise, and yes, that's because brains release natural endorphins and whatnot, but I'd like to think that it's a little bit leftover THC from the last time I got high. Makes me feel like a badass when I work out. Hehe!

    i got a little high one time i did the only hard exercise after like months of smokin (sports carnival). i dunno what that was about. and i dont mean i got subjectively 'high' i just felt the feeling i get from cannabinoids if ive smoked like a miniscule amount or in the seconds directy after smoking a large amount lol

    but yeh i dunno if its just the metabolites that are stored. whatever the case, its all pretty airy fairy youre not gonna get significantly high fro mit.

    what it means by 'metabolites are inactive' is that the reason you arent high forever is that THC is broken down after it has its effect. it is broken down into similar chemicals, cannabinoids, but they are inactive, ie, they dont get you high.

    well certainly not all of them are inactive, because the marijuana high lasts about 30+ hours. of course, it's no longer a strong feeling after the first several hours. tolerance...
    oh, and sweat doesn't get you high.
