90-day CBD Oil Experiment Days 11–17: How CBD Oil Works As A Workout Recovery Method
One of the reasons I’m doing my 90-day CBD oil experiment is to know for sure whether or not CBD oil is one of the best post-workout recovery methods.
So, for the last several days, I’ve gone through my regular training routine (along with rest days). Now, I can start to feel that there is a difference in my workout recovery.
Day 11 was a rest day. Day 12 I did squats, dumbbell deadlifts & other challenging leg exercises, plus I ran about 10 minutes on the way to the gym + the return.
On day 13 I woke with sore leg muscles, but little pain in my right knee from chondromalacia. This was a rest day. I worked at my desk all day, and the knee pain didn’t flare up.
I think taking 20 mg of CBD oil for workout recovery is starting to work!
Day 14 I did shoulders, and had minimal soreness the following day.
Day 15 I took a 20-mile bike ride, and ran a few sprints while shooting the lacrosse ball at the goal. Luckily, no knee pain as a result.
Day 16 was a day of rest. Day 17 I did a chest/triceps/lats workout at the gym. I haven’t felt any unusual discomfort. I just feel like a got a strong workout in.

I’m beginning to see that it does work to take 20 mg of CBD oil daily for joint and muscle pains resulting from vigorous exercise. I take 10 mg before my workout, and another 10 mg of CBD oil before dinner.
In addition to 20 mg of CBDPure 600 CBD oil, I take a turmeric/curcumin supplement because I read that it makes CBD more bioavailable, and that turmeric helps the body assimilate cannabidiol more effectively.
I also take L-Arginine 1000mg tablets which are NOS Nitric Oxide boosters to take pre-workout to get blood flowing to the muscles. I suppose they might help the CBD oil work its way around my system too.
I think in order to get the most out of taking CBD oil for post-workout recovery…I’ll have to take 20 mg of CBD oil everyday and never stop for it to be a true game changer when it comes to post-workout recovery. Especially because I want to be able to exercise like this well into my 50s…so CBD oil is a worthy investment.
Taking CBD oil orally is important. Also, for joint pain & as a post-workout recovery method, I think a topical CBD is a great addition to just rub into sore joints.
I believe that using CBD oil to prevent joint pain from exercise, overuse, age, and repetitive motions will take a few weeks to see the astonishing results I see other people report. Stay tuned to this experiment to know how taking CBD oil as a post-workout recovery method works during the first 90 days of use.
