But the question I have, is smoking this stuff (which is not on a daily basis, only a couple hits every couple days) detrimental to my conditioning? Does it make me slow? Is it bad for my muscles? And also does it kill brain cells (cuz one of my buddies told me alcohol does but not the grass, and I dont drink)?

I would really appreciate some answers from some experienced guys or guys who know alil bit more about this than I do.

Inhaling any sort of smoke is a negative towards cardio. Make up for it with an extra mile.
It doesn't make you slow.
It's not bad for your muscles.
No one knows for sure if weed kills brain cells.

But as said above, simply because it's illegal, if you fight, and test positive, you forfeit that win, and probably face a suspension or fine.
